Dead of Night Ghost Hunt With Equipment in Phoenix, AZ
Join our Phoenix ghost hunt and explore the city’s most haunted and historic locations on this late-night tour where specialized equipment is used to try to uncover what lurks in the dark.
Tour Meeting Location: St. Mary's Roman Catholic Basilica 231 N 3rd St
Phoenix is famous for sunshine, world-class resorts, fine dining, and breathtaking views of the scenic Superstition Mountains. However, the desert is as beautiful as it is unforgiving, and there it has as many tales of tragedy and mystery as it has saguaros.
On our ghost tour of downtown Phoenix, you will visit some of the most famous haunted locations the city is known for – The famous Hotel San Carlos, the Rosson House, and more.
St. Mary’s Basilica
Known as a place of worship for some, St. Mary’s Basilica has garnered a reputation for being one of the spookiest places in Phoenix. Some people who visit the church during late hours report feeling some otherworldly presence lurking about the grounds. We’ll explain what makes St. Mary’s Basilica so haunted during our Phoenix ghost tour and what kind of spirits to look out for on the church’s sacred grounds.
The Rosson House
The Rosson House is perhaps one of the most famous landmarks in Phoenix. It was built in 1895 for the influential and elite Rosson family. The house sports that typical “haunted house” look and immediately gives off a creepy vibe to those who get too close. Some locals report that the home still houses the spirits of its former residents. You may even spot some during this stop on our Phoenix ghost tour.
Hotel San Carlos
The Hotel San Carlos, a historic gem that opened in 1928, is renowned for its elegant design and storied past. However, beneath its charming facade lies a chilling history. The hotel is notorious for the tragic death of a young woman named Leone Jensen, who leaped from the rooftop in 1928; her ghost is now said to haunt the halls. Joining her are three boys who drowned in a well when the area was the site of Phoenix’s first school.
What to Expect on Your Phoenix Ghost Tour
Civilizations have risen and fallen in the Valley of the Sun for 2,000 years, and on our Phoenix ghost tour, you’ll hear stories of those who came before, those who folloed them, and those who have been unable to part with the city eternally. You’ll learn the secrets of many of Phoenix’s most otherworldly sites and discover the unheard stories of how they came to be.
All of our stories are drawn from eyewitness reports, reasearch, journalistic investigations, and local legends. We’ve dug deep into the history of each of the locations on our tour and pride ourselves on bringing the most famous and well-known stories of the unexplained as well as personal accounts from those who experienced it for themselves.
