We call ourselves the "Ultimate Tour of Chicago's Ghosts, Gangsters & Ghouls -- But What Can You Expect from a Weird Chicago Tour?

 It's all about the offbeat and the left of center -- the kind of things that may leave you chuckling, a little unnerved or just scratching your head in confusion. We visit not only the most haunted places in the city of Chicago but we take a look at the "dark underbelly" of Chicago as well. Our tour is created to showcase the unusual aspects of Chicago --- and what makes it so haunted, weird & unique! The tours are a combination of ghosts, gangsters and things about the city that are downright strange. We have a number of specialty tours that cover everything from ghosts to crime and even the history of sex in Chicago! We also feature locations that you won't find on any other tour!

Our Mascot "Speedy"
