I would have to agree with most of the previous comments concerning this tour. I recieved this as a gift, and went with my girlfriend a while back. We only ended up making 4 stops, only 2 of which were actually legitimate areas of "paranormal activity" The other stops were to the Billy Goat and a shop in China Town. Im no expert, but the other stops had little to no supernatual significance and seemed to be more of a trap for the Billy Goat and Chinatown shop to get more business. (I was actually astonished to see how many people from the tour group were purchasing stuff from the China store!!!) I am very curious to see what he is getting for bringing so many large tour groups into their stores $$$$$$$$$ In all fairness, if you are not from the Chicago area and have more money than you know what to do with, it is a good way to see these parts of the city, but if you are a local like me, you would be better off visiting these haunted places on your own. Although he did have some interesting stories that even myself being from the area was not aware of, he seemed kinda rude and self centered. This kind of thing does not necessarily bother me, but he included several odd and out of place political and religious statements that were not necessariy appropriate considering the subject matter he is being paid to present. The standard ghost tour we went on was 50 dollars each, no where worth the money. He is defnitely running the tour too much as a business and would benefit by including more actual ghost stops and less visits to irrevelant areas.
- HMMMM I noticed that somehow the rating for this tour is 5 stars when the last 2 reviews were 1 and 2 stars. I feel the hand of Richard Crowe all over this one!!!
Pros: Some interesting facts
Cons: Not enough relevant stops
