US Ghost Adventures gave me a fun tour of the city's historic locations! I was regaled with…read morestories of the experiences of famous writers, the macabre history of the buildings on the campus of Brown University, and other mysterious parts of Providence that most history books don't mention! Our guide was well-spoken and informative, and made the experience fun and interesting! As someone who appreciates history, I truly enjoyed hearing unnoticed, lesser-known stories! By the way, there is a fair amount of walking and hills in this tour, so make sure you wear comfortable shoes and bring a water bottle!

I had a fun time here. Not exactly what I was expecting. I feel like the website description…read moredoesn't match the event. The review before me states that they were expecting a haunted house type walk through, but I was expecting more of a museum with some moving statues. That I could browse the exhibits and some statues would move around me. It was kind of a combination of what the reviewer before me expected and what I did. No time to look through the exhibits more than a quick peek, no time to read. But the statues do jump at you! You go one group at a time, and overall it was a fun night. Pretty quick so MAine sure you have dinner plans!

I have no idea what the heck I just saw! You walk in line to wait for the tour, and a creepy…read morescarecrow walks up to you as you stand outside in the freezing cold. There are signs that read "no flash photography" but everyone on the tour was taking pictures of everything. The "tour" (if that's what you want to call it" was guided by a non-speaking woman in oriental garb, so clapped to direct your attention. The first half literally just felt like a museum. It consisted of performance artists moving around, dressed up as Dracula's daughter, a fallen angel, etc. as a recording explains made-up stories about their past. There is literally NOTHING that pops out at you for the first 20 minutes of the tour. The last five minutes is supposed to be a self-guided tour through Dracula's lair. A woman greets you and goes - turn back, don't go any further. People on our tour (including us) were laughing at most of the poor attempts to startle us. The tour ended with what looked like (as one tour goer put it) "Dracula and his wife shooting up cocaine." Was it scary? No. Was it funny? Sort of. Was it worth it? Not in the slightest. Go to the Haunted Labyrinth in Cranston if you really want to be spooked.
