💡 Know Before You Go

🎃 Charge your phone — you’ll want photos of the historic stops (and maybe orb shots).

🎃 Tip your guide — the storytelling makes the tour; guides work for tips at many companies.

🎃 Book ahead — tours cap group sizes and Halloween-season nights sell out.

🎃 Wear walking shoes — you’ll cover real distance, often on cobblestones or uneven streets.

🎃 Bring a light jacket — standing around listening to stories gets chilly after dark.
