| It was awesome! Would like to go back again. The tour could have been longer but I got some amazing pictures. Very heavy feeling in that jail. Definetely haunted. |

| It was a good tour but not scarey. It was advertised as a "not recommended for small children or men that cry easily." We thought it would be scarey and then we get there and one of the first things the tour guide says is that this is not a "boo tour" it is historical. It was definitely historical, interesting and gruesome stories were told. It was not worth the money as we only got to see 3 rooms and it went very fast. |

| My girls, all 5 of them, had a blast! We have wanted to do this ghost walk for the longest and decided a 13th birstday party was an ideal time. The guide was very informative and the girls just ate up everything she had to say. I would recommend this tour for anyone!! |

| We heard that this was the best ghost tour in town, so naturally we tried it first. While the scene of the City Jail held a great deal of potential, the presentation was very poor. The jail is undergoing constant reconstruction, as it was originally condemned, but there appears to be little effort to separate the construction from the tour path. As a result, it is VERY difficult to “see” how the Jail used to be. The tour guide was nice and somewhat informed of the history, but a VERY poor storyteller. I felt like the stories would have been appropriate for a high school class, not an adult tour. The group was small enough not to be a distraction, but the constant flash photography completely ruined the intended "scariness" of the experience. As a result, my wife and I were very unimpressed. Don't go here to be scared, it's just not set up for it. Like I said, it was a reasonably good History Walk, a really bad Ghost Tour. |

| i think her name was karen or kathy, she made the tour a lot of fun; however, i think it would be a little more realistic if all the college classrooms and college supplies were contained to a couple rooms that you did not tour thru. |
