Taking place in Deadwood (AKA, the most haunted town in South Dakota), the Haunted History Walking Ghost Tour is a town tradition that is enjoyed by locals and tourists alike.

Owned and operated by a resident historian, the Deadwood Haunted History Walking Ghost Tour looks past the glitz and glamour of the casinos and world-class restaurants and focuses on an unseen aspect: the ghostly residents and visitors who never left the town.

According to legends and visitor accounts, Deadwood is plagued by the paranormal, with several of its original hotels, homes, and museums all tainted by mysterious spirits.

During your tour, you will get to hear about (and possibly see) some of these haunts first hand, most of which are located along Deadwood's famed Main Street.

The Deadwood Haunted History Walking Ghost Tour takes place at 1:45 p.m., 3:45 p.m., and 5:45 p.m., and begins at the Old Style Saloon #10.

For more information, visit the Deadwood Chamber of Commerce's website.

Admission to the Tour is $10 for adults 12 and up and $5 for children ages 5 to 12.

Please note: Some content may not be suitable for young children.
