What to expect
Your tour begins at SpookEasy Lounge, the home base. You'll be given paranormal detection equipment and briefed on the haunted sites you're about to visit. Over the next two hours, you'll walk through Ybor City's older neighbourhoods—mixing standard pavement with historic cobblestone streets—stopping at marked paranormal hotspots. At each location, you'll have time to use the equipment and listen to the history and legends tied to that site.
You'll visit the old Baptist church gravesite and José Martí Park among other spots. Throughout, you're part of a larger group tour, not a private experience. The tour wraps up back at SpookEasy Lounge or nearby, where you can purchase additional refreshments before heading off.

Good to know
This works well for anyone with a genuine interest in paranormal investigation, local history, or Ybor City's darker stories—not a theatrical scare experience. Expect substantial walking on uneven, older street surfaces including cobblestone; those with poor cardiovascular fitness should reconsider. The tour is wheelchair accessible and stroller-friendly, though the terrain is rough. Service animals are welcome. You'll be in a shared group rather than a private party. Refreshments (available for purchase) break up the walking, but bring water. Not recommended if you have mobility issues aggravated by cobblestone or uneven ground.
