Our Recent Adventure at Real Ghost Tours

Real Ghost Tours opened earlier this year.  Dave and I went on the 90 minute tour earlier this month, and look forward to returning for the highly anticipated overnight version currently being planned.

Armed with EMF Meters and flashlights, our three guides had us wandering through both common and off-limits areas of the St. Anthony Main complex.

In a basement space, we were given dowsing rods. While holding the rods, I didn't expect anything to happen, but when one of them starting flinging around I narrowly escaped the need for a change of underwear.

Below, Melissa Wolfe monitors her dowsing rods.  Our guide called out to spirits, asking that they make themselves known by coercing the rods to move in specific directions.

At one point during the tour we were in a vacated upper floor space where our guide set up a digital audio recorder.  He asked if there were spirits present, and a few words did come through (although opinions differed on what those words were).  He mentioned that someone allegedly hung themselves in that space, at which point a member of our group blurted out that she had seen him (the hanging person) and pointed to a nearby rafter.  

Above, our guide gives some background on the people whose spirits are believed to be occupying St. Anthony Main. 

Brianna Tinjum, a member of our group, gave this review, "The Real Ghost Tours was fun! Learning some of the riverfront history, wandering the old buildings (sometimes in the dark, creepy), and getting to use gadgets you see on ghost hunting shows was a fun and interesting way to spend a Saturday evening.  I definitely recommend this tour."   I concur.
