Itinerary

1
Gaslamp Museum at the Davis-Horton House
You will enter the house that the San Diego Ghost Hunters tell us is currently the "most active" location in SD, even more so than the more famous ones. First floor and courtyard entry is included! This is the house where people would come to die as it was a hospital of sorts with a dramatic history. Our guests have experienced being pushed around the house with a hand on their back when there is no one behind them and catching mysterious shapes on camera, with lots of orbs here as well. Bring your camera! While we can't employ ghosts or guarantee something will happen, things can and will occur; we just don't know when.
· 20 min· Admission included
2
Programme, étape 2
You will enter this location, and we do a presentation in the bar and lobby. It is famous for room 309 and room 209, which are both active. One of the ghosts might be someone you have already heard of, an infamous gunslinger. Can you guess who that might be? Visitors still experience mysterious cold chills, footsteps, and glowing orbs.
· 15 min· Admission included
3
Villa Montezuma Museum
You will go on the premise of the Villa, a museum that is closed at night. Sometimes we go into the first floor drawing room and lobby. Get lucky! The staff here considers it to be enchanted. But don't be fooled; if you read our reviews, this location is a favorite for many. Our presentation there is very well received, and lots of eerie things have been captured by our guests' cameras. You will see this location, which is haunted by 2 people who once lived there. Strangely enough, they say, it is the first person to live in the house and the last to live in the Villa Montezuma. Perhaps you will hear music from beyond or see a haunted artifact move.
· 20 min
4
Whaley House Museum
You will see the Whaley House. NO GHOST TOUR GOES INTO THE HOUSE. The Whaley House is run by a massive national corporation and it is a money-printing machine for them. They have changed the history, layout, and killed the spirits of the house in the interest of profit (ask any local ghost hunter, and they'll tell you that since the rearrangement, activity is low or artificial). What was an amazing location is now a marketing machine. Still, it does have history. We present the original history at the location (not inside), not the corporate rewrite. Find out how it all began with Yankee Jim and its other doomed occupants. Get the, for lack of a better word, "Greatest Hits" tales at this location.
· 10 min· Admission not included
5
El Campo Santo Cemetery
What is a haunted tour without a graveyard? You will enter this location and be told the stories among the tombstones. Back to where it all began in Old Town San Diego. El Campo Santo Cemetery has a long history of the macabre. Ghosts there are disturbed as their burial grounds have been disturbed many times. Strange figures still appear, seemingly to glow and float above the ground.

Practical information

Service animals allowed
Public transportation options are available nearby
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
8 person minimum!! Beware especially in winter. Our Haunted Guided Tours are smaller than our competitors. Plus, you actually enter multiple locations on our tours! As such, we require at least 8 people/ghost hunters in our group to run. If for some reason it looks like the tour will not go (this is rare but does occasionally happen), we will personally call you with a tour update 2-3 hours before your tour is set to go. If your tour does not go, again very rare, we will refund you or move you to another date. Feel free to call or email us with any questions or if you just want an update on how many have signed up so far. If we don't pick up immediately, we will get back to you shortly.
We meet you at the south corner of Conde Street & San Diego Ave, 2425 San Diego Ave, San Diego, CA 92110. 15 minutes before tour time, please.
Please make sure to use the bathroom before your tour. You will be going to historic locations which have no bathroom access, and your party definitely should use the bathroom before joining us. Bathrooms can be found in the neighboring restaurants and businesses. There is a public restroom at the back of Cafe Coyote a block away. Just walk to the very back of their plaza.
If you are driving, please show up early to get parking.
Service animals are allowed provided they are small, can be carried in their crate, and do not disturb the other attendees. If you have a larger animal like a German Shepherd, you would need to purchase an additional seat, potentially crate the animal, and will not be able to enter some of the locations as there are antique and very valuable, fragile historic artifacts in them.
Due to our bus size and the older nature of our locations, we are not wheelchair accessible. If you have a member with ambulatory challenges, please call us to go over it.
Children under 10 are not recommended. If you have a child under 10, please call us to make sure this is a good fit.

Spooky blast!
Christina_N, October 2026
The tour was very informative on the history and fun! Luther was knowledgeable and entertaining. Loved the smaller size bus (coffin on wheels). The tour was quaint and small which in my eyes made it more personable.

Cancelled by tour due to sickness
William_R, October 2026
Unfortunately we did not get to go on this tour. Our tour guide was sick and had to cancel. They were very kind.and very concerned about spreading their illness to us. Based on this alone, I would definitely recommend this tour. If the guides care this much about their customers, they must do an amazing job on the tour. Unfortunately we are not able to reschedule as our time here is very full, but I really appreciate these guides. I wish them well and lots of happy tours!
Response from the operator · HSDGT
Thanks William and terribly sorry to miss you you all would have been a blessing to go with. It is a debate within our world on if we should go with sick hosts (particularly if they are contagious). The corporate booking platforms want us to they want their cut. Some of our customer don't care and want us to. Sometimes the host maybe sick but able enough and will do it. We have so far leaned on cancelling though because we know you would be exposed and likely would get it some of the recent ones are highly contagious we are told. If anyone out there has a vote on it let us know I am always trying to sort how you all feel out there about stuffl like this. Thanks again William you are a true gem - really appreciate your understanding and forgiveness. If you ever come back in town hit me up directly and remind me of this for a personal discount. - Brian :)

Spooky, fun, and totally worth It!
20katee, October 2026
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We did the ghost tour in San Diego on 10/12/26 and had a blast. Riding in the van made it easy to cover a lot of ground, and the tour stopped at multiple locations, so it never felt repetitive. The best part was actually getting to go inside some of the spots instead of just hearing stories from the curb. It made the history feel real, and the atmosphere inside was genuinely eerie. Our guide was entertaining and knew their stuff, balancing creepy tales with humor and local history. The pacing was great, with plenty of time at each stop without dragging. Great for date night, friends, or anyone who loves a good scare with their history. Worth every penny. Highly recommend!
