Overview

Join us for a private walking ghost tour of Milwaukee’s haunted historic Third Ward. As the largest city in Wisconsin with an industrial past, it’s no surprise that the city is riddled with spectral stories, which your guide will bring to life for you!

In the mid-nineteenth century, the Third Ward was more commonly called the Blood Third, where roving thugs and gangs operated in the streets. It was also home to elegant hotels, prominent businesses, and hard-working families - which made for decades of reputational clashes in the neighbourhood.

In 1892, a series of fires swept across the Third Ward and the city, leaving behind eery tales of mediums having predicted the fire, of sabotage and revenge - even stories from the fire chief who was awoken in his dreams by a voice to notify him of fires before the rest of the firehouse knew.

Your private spectral tour is two hours and just under two miles, suitable for people of all ages, provided that adults are present with children.

Activity itinerary

Milwaukee
  • 30m
Visit the Old Saloon, one of the few buildings to survive the 1892 fire, and the Irish Pub, which was a house of ill repute and the site of a jealous lover’s spat turned to horror. Hear tales of the ‘Lady of the Pub’ who has frightened an equal number of employees and guests throughout the years, making appearances in the basement and bathroom mirrors.
Milwaukee Public Market
  • 30m
Begin your tour at the Milwaukee Public Market, hear tales of the immigrant community in the Third Ward and the gangs who ran the night.
The Institute of Beauty & Wellness - Milwaukee
  • 30m
At the Institute of Beauty and Wellness, learn of Timmy - the ghost of a small child who caused more than small scares for students throughout the years.
Pfister Hotel Lobby Lounge
  • 30m
Your tour finishes at the Pfiser Hotel - the city’s best-known haunted location, where the ghost of Charles Pfiser continues to live. Hear the tales of several pro-baseball players from the Dodgers, the Marlins, and the Giants who each had more than their fair shares of haunted sightings with the hotel ghost.
