Not a Haunted House. A Haunted Town.

Most ghost tours hand their guides a script someone pieced together from Wikipedia. This one is different. Every story on the Downtown Flagstaff Haunted History Tour comes from the original research of Susan Johnson, a published historian with three books on Flagstaff through The History Press. Court records, newspaper clippings, first-person accounts from the archives: that is the foundation this tour stands on.

Freaky Foot Tours has been walking these streets for 11 years. Not a franchise. Not a corporate outfit. Two people who started with less than $150 and a deep knowledge of what happened in this town after dark. 30,000 guests later, the stories have only gotten richer. Read the full story behind the tour.

Flagstaff sits at 7,000 feet on the edge of the largest contiguous ponderosa pine forest in the world. Route 66 runs through its downtown. The buildings are old. The history is real. And some of the people who passed through those doors over the last century left something behind. Explore the seven haunted locations or see the full walking route.

This is not a haunted house. It's a haunted town. And we know every story on every street.
