What you get

    About this experience

    Join us for a spine-tingling, adults-only ghost tour where the spirits are restless and the stories are downright chilling. We’ll dive into tales of demons, monsters, blood-soaked grounds, and even a centuries-old curse that still casts its shadow over the city. It’s a night of frightful fun, twisted history, and just enough paranormal to keep you looking over your shoulder. Leave the little ones at home and meet us at Miller Park, where your ghostly guide will lead you through haunted hotspots like the newly restored Miller Plaza Pavilion, the famously eerie Read House Hotel, and the historic Mountain City Club—built in 1889 and steeped in secrets. It’s spooky, it’s saucy, and it’s only for the brave. Are you in? If you have 10 or more guests in one group, please get in touch with the private & group sales coordinator with Ghost City Tours.

    Great mix of history and spooky--very entertaining with a yikes ending!

    We greatly enjoyed our tour. Zack was lively, engaging, absolutely delightful! Great mix of stories blending history and spooky.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you had such an enjoyable evening with Zack. His lively personality and engaging storytelling clearly helped make the experience memorable, and we’re glad you enjoyed the blend of Chattanooga’s history and spooky stories. That “yikes” ending sounds like it added exactly the kind of memorable moment a haunted tour should have! We truly appreciate your recommendation and are happy to know the tour delivered a fun mix of entertainment, history, and the paranormal. We hope to welcome you back for another Ghost City experience in the future.

    Wrong Kinda Spooky

    I have never experienced anything quite like this tour. By that, I mean I have never been on a tour I so thoroughly did not enjoy, yet somehow had so much fun making fun of with my friends afterward. Our tour guide made sure to tell us that it was his first tour, that he would be reading from handwritten notes, that he didn’t know the area well, and that he had found the job on Indeed. And, well… he lived up to every one of those self-deprecating circumstantial impediments to success. INDEED. His stories were rambling at best. We don’t need a tour guide with a PhD; we just need someone capable of constructing a story with a beginning, middle, and end. At one point, we visited a hospital that was constructed in 1985 and were told to think about a hospital in Pittsburgh. We were then informed that there were, in fact, no ghosts in this particular hospital—but that there were ghosts in a hospital about 40 minutes away. There were no specific stories about that hospital, either. We were simply told that tours were available there and that, if we happened to be in the area, we could probably find them by Googling. Throughout the tour, I had the distinct impression that our guide was unfamiliar with both the area and the subject matter. It honestly seemed as though he had never walked the tour route before and had never been accompanied by a trainer. I’m curious whether he has ever spoken to or even met another person who works for this company. Certainly, if anyone who actually values this company had witnessed this man conducting a tour, I cannot imagine they would have allowed us to have this experience. To be fair, we did have a great time laughing about how ridiculous and uncomfortable the whole thing was. It felt like watching a stand-up comedy show where every single comic bombs—but somehow keeps getting handed the microphone. And to be clear, I don’t think the blame lies with the guide. It lies squarely with whoever runs this company. How you could possibly throw this guy to the wolves—completely unprepared and without adequate training—is mind-boggling. Honestly, it’s a little cruel. He did his best, and we got a chuckle out of it. But if you’re going to charge people to follow a guide around while he reads what amounts to a high-school-level book report about the history of the city, please train and vet your guides first. This guy deserved better training, and your customers deserved a better tour.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback. We’re genuinely disappointed to hear that the tour did not meet the experience you expected. Your comments regarding the presentation, historical content, route familiarity, and overall storytelling are specific and important, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention. We also appreciate your recognition that the guide appeared to be doing his best under the circumstances. We would welcome the opportunity to review the details of this experience directly and better understand what occurred. Please contact our customer service team with your reservation information so we can look into this privately and thoroughly.

    Book with Ben!

    We had Ben as our tour guide, and he was absolutely fantastic! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. At one point, I desperately needed to use the restroom, and he even took us off the tour route so I could make a quick stop, which I really appreciated. His stories were captivating, and it was clear he was genuinely passionate about his job and sharing his knowledge. He made the entire experience enjoyable and memorable. I would absolutely book another tour with Ben and highly recommend him to anyone!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing such wonderful feedback about Ben! We’re delighted to hear that his friendliness, knowledge, and genuine passion made your experience so memorable. It’s especially nice to know that he was able to accommodate your group when you needed a quick break and still keep the experience enjoyable. We’ll be happy to pass along your kind words. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope you have the opportunity to join Ben or another Ghost City Tours guide again on a future Chattanooga adventure.

    A ghost tour in a heat wave

    Zach was wonderful. He also took great care of us in the heat

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that Zach helped make your Chattanooga ghost tour enjoyable, particularly during such challenging summer weather. Taking in the city’s spooky history during a heat wave can certainly add an extra element to the adventure, so we’re glad you felt well cared for along the way. We’ll be happy to share your kind words with Zach. Thank you for choosing Ghost City Tours, and we hope to welcome you back for another experience in Chattanooga!

    Cursed in Chattanooga Haunted Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Chattanooga.

    How much does Cursed in Chattanooga Haunted Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Chattanooga usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Cursed in Chattanooga Haunted Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Chattanooga is not rushed.

    Is Cursed in Chattanooga Haunted Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 98 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Chattanooga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Cursed in Chattanooga Haunted Walking Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Cursed in Chattanooga Haunted Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Cursed in Chattanooga Haunted Walking Tour?

    +

    Around 34 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Chattanooga can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Chattanooga and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Cursed in Chattanooga Haunted Walking Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Chattanooga within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Chattanooga?

    +

    Chattanooga sells Lookout Mountain packages with Ruby Falls and Rock City, incline railway rides, Civil War battlefield tours, river cruises and caving trips. On Outty we rank every Chattanooga experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ocoee River Middle Whitewater Rafting Trip (Most Popular Tour), Middle Ocoee River Rafting Adventure Tour, Classic Middle Ocoee River Adventure. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Chattanooga?

    +

    April to June and September to November. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Chattanooga?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
