The Ghosts of Madison: Private 2-hour Spooky Evening Tour

Join us for a private walking ghost tour of Capitol Square and see Madison’s spectral-rich history come to life as you walk the neighbourhood.

Your tour begins at the Wisconsin Capitol Building, which went through three iterations before becoming the building which now stands. From there, your private guide will take you by one of the city’s most beautiful —and haunted — old theatres, the Majestic, whose spectres are so real that one employee approached the figure to let the man know it was time to go home, only to realise the man was an apparition. As you move along the lakefront, see where the Old Madison jail stood, and hear tales of inmates being terrified by a spectre so alarming that they awoke the sheriff and begged for a different cell.

Your private spectral tour is two hours and just under two miles and is suitable for people of all ages, provided that adults are present with children.
