Overview

Step into the past on a haunting journey through the heart of the “Graveyard of the West”. As the sun sets and the city’s vibrant façade fades, you'll uncover the sinister secrets and chilling tales that lurk beneath the city's storied streets.

One part ghosts, one part grisly history, this guided 1.5-hour walking tour through city centre unveils the darkest corners of Louisville’s gruesome past, where the echoes of bygone eras whisper tragic tales of the forlorn, the oppressed, the betrayed, and the ruthless.

From a ghost that still haunts a glamorous hotel to the tragic riots of Bloody Monday, you’ll trace the cursed footsteps of criminals, mobsters, bootleggers, enslavers, and murderers in the city streets they once roamed – and the spirits whose souls never left.

For thrill-seekers, true crime fans, and lovers of the macabre, this dark history & ghost tour is a journey into the mysteries that lie beneath Louisville’s charming exterior. Dare to explore the shadows with us.
