A 1-hour Old Chicago ghost walk in the dark—bullet holes, gallows site, and Eastland waters on the route.
Most folks are there for spooky local history with a small-group feel, not a party crowd. The walk leans hard into real places and stories—courthouse bullet holes and the Cook County gallows area—so it’s more eerie education than entertainment. Runs 6–7pm and is strictly 18+ with valid ID.

Chicago Hauntings is the original Chicago ghost tour and still the best. These tours are based on all original research, unlike the many other knock-off tours you'll find today. Beware of the imitations. Imagine walking in the steps of Chicago's most notorious criminals at the city's original courthouse, putting your fingers into actual bullet holes from Chicago's gangland days, feeling the haunting presences near the site of the old Cook County gallows, and gazing upon the waters where 844 souls lost their lives in the horrific Eastland disaster of 1915. Come along and experience all this and more!
