Venture aboard a vintage trolley to find a side of Derby City that many are too afraid to look for. As the sun sets over Old Louisville’s gaslit streets, our expert storyteller will guide you through two centuries of restless spirits, haunted landmarks, and paranormal legends that have made Louisville one of the most paranormally active cities in America.
This 2-hour journey into the mists of Louisville’s past begins in the Victorian heart of Old Louisville (long whispered to be America’s most haunted neighborhood) before venturing into much older neighborhoods, deep into the heart of the city.
Derby City hides her darkest secrets in plain sight. Hop on, if you dare.
This tour is suitable for ages 10 and up.

1Old Louisville
Begin on an eerily quiet court in Old Louisville to hear tales of mansions hiding dark secrets, quiet inns where phantom residents are said to still linger behind lace curtains, and a butcher who met the gallows swearing his innocence.

Wind through the city’s haunted heart to a luxurious hotel where a mysterious woman in blue, murdered long ago, never checked out. Traverse streets that once ran with floodwater so deep that the bodies of the drowned floated right up against the cast-iron facades and windows above. Nearby, the ashes of a deadly hotel fire still cling to the ground where it once stood. (Outside Tour Only)
