5.00Asheville visitors and WNC lifers alike: if you love history & a nice walk, you should come on this tour. Tad is a GREAT storyteller - and an equally talented cultural anthropologist. As brilliantly as he delivers the gory details that haunt each site, he also weaves you an insightful (and delightful) tapestry of Asheville’s cultural nuances surrounding each event. Perfect way to spend a Saturday evening!
Fun, spooky activity!

5.00Christian our tour guide was absolutely fabulous. Definitely worthwhile and a good spooky time. BUT. Maybe bring some pepper spray. We got chased by a zombie tweaker right at the end of the tour who was screaming he was going to kill us all. Definitely got the adrenaline pumping after our spooky tour and I learned that I may look slow, but I can really fast when being chased by zombies. Would have felt a little better with some pepper spray/bear spray on hand. Still, had a great time though and truly a 5 star activity
Spooky tales, lore, and local history

5.00Had an awesome time! Christian, our host, was very witty, kept the tour group moving so we didn't all freeze in the cold weather, and the microphone pack he wore made it so that we could all hear him very clearly.
This was a fantastic...
