Horrifying James

A tour with me feels like a trip to the candy store with so many new treats to explore.

Flagstaff Roots

Horrifying James on Flagstaff

I've lived in Flagstaff for 22 years. I've been visiting Flagstaff and my in-laws since the early '80s. I love the tight-knit community here. You can't go anywhere without meeting someone who is 1-2 degrees away from your circle of friends.

Why Guests Trust This Guide

The background

  • Adjunct professor at Northern Arizona University
  • 30 plus years of experience teaching and facilitating
  • Seasoned actor with each of the local theater groups and in short films
  • Classical musician with the Flagstaff Master Chorale and Flagstaff Symphony

Signature Stop

My favorite haunted stop is the Milligan House and the story of Mabel Milligan. My favorite mural stop is 'The Veridic Gardens of Effie La Reux.' I enjoy both of these because my guests get an opportunity to engage with the stories.

Who was Mabel Milligan, and what grows in Effie La Reux's garden? Both answers stay on the route.

After the Tour

What guests tell Horrifying James

After each of my tours my guests tell me how much fun they've had on my tours and how much they've learned.

Off the Clock

Horrifying James, off duty

I love performing, whether it's a concert, a performance, or a play, I get a charge out of it. I also like hiking in the forest and riding my bike around town. I also host a radio talk show on Radio Sunnyside, KSZN 101.
