Overview

This is a self-guided exploration game where you'll be solving a paranormal case involving stories about wandering ghosts. The file on Savannah's Historic District has been open since 1955. You, with your detective and observational skills, and a little help from the Questo app, will try to close it in 2 hours.

The route takes you square by square through 13 of the most haunted addresses in town. Your job is to check every famous ghost story against the paper record.

You'll discover dark stories like the servant girl the colony waited to hang until she gave birth, the seven hundred fever victims buried in one trench, and the famous inn ghost who lived into her eighties.

Each location involves inspecting a real-world object and solving a challenge.

Best after dark with your phone torch on. About 1.8 miles of walking, with unlimited breaks.

Hints and 24/7 support available if you get stuck.

Perfect for Halloween or any night you're in the mood for creepy ghost stories.

  • Flexibility: start, take a break and continue at your own pace.
  • Access to the self-guided city exploration game in the Questo app
