Spooky Solvang Ghost Hunting & History Tour
Overview
Use real ghost hunting gear and learn of Solvang's haunted past, with creepy stories collected from locals. We're the original ghost tour, with a haunted adventure taking you through Solvang's charming streets and historic Danish-style buildings.
Using professional ghost-hunting tools like EMF meters, dowsing rods, and a Spirit Box, you’ll get hands-on as you search for signs of the supernatural. Hear strange stories of haunted bakeries, ghostly restaurant patrons, and spirits that still linger behind the village’s cozy façade.
Blending folklore, history, and interactive ghost hunting, this tour offers a fun, spooky, and surprisingly thoughtful way to explore Solvang. We’ll wrap up with a closing ritual to honor the energies we’ve encountered and ensure a peaceful parting.
Recommended for ages 12+ due to mature themes, including serial killers, brothels, and true crime.
