Haunted Ashland walking tour

Haunted Ashland tour: Downtown -- Meet by the Peerless Hotel at 243 Fourth Street

1 hr 45 mins··$20

Learn about haunted Ashland houses, hotels and restaurants, plus ghost encounters at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. New stories have been added since last year's tour. These are not just old stories from books. Most of my stories are first-hand experiences learned from the people who encountered the spirits. Many historic photos are included. You might find yourself amazed, laughing, skeptical, questioning your assumptions – or, if you are like one of my friends, communicating with the spirits during the tour. Distance of walk: approximately 1 mile. Mostly flat route, paved walking surface with some uneven pavement.
Route: Fourth Street to Oak Street to the Plaza to the Elizabethan Theatre; ending at Street Scene sculpture, corner of E. Main and Pioneer streets.
Note: Children 10 years and younger are free.
