Flagstaff has two adults-only haunted experiences, and both come from the company that has walked this town since 2015: Mountain Town of Madness, our 18+ tour, runs Friday and Saturday nights at 9 PM, and Spirits With The Spirits, our 21+ haunted pub crawl, books privately for groups. If you have seen another company advertise the "only" adults-only ghost tour in Flagstaff, know this: ours came first, and locals will tell you the same.
Mountain Town of Madness: the 18+ tour
Mountain Town of Madness is the after-dark version of Flagstaff's original ghost tour. Same streets, darker files: the true crime our family tour leaves out, including the courthouse case of a man acquitted of murder on a skin-walker defense, and the recent paranormal activity that has some locals calling Crystal Magic the most haunted building in Flagstaff. It runs 90 minutes, about 1 mile, Friday and Saturday at 9 PM from Wheeler Park.
Spirits With The Spirits: the 21+ haunted pub crawl
Ghost stories between rounds at downtown's most haunted bars, including the Mead Hall at Drinking Horn and a stop under the Hotel Monte Vista neon. Three stops, real history, about 150 minutes. The pub crawl currently books as a private experience for your group: inquire for dates.
Which one should you book?
Pick Mountain Town of Madness if you want the full walking tour with the uncensored case files. Pick the pub crawl if your group would rather hear its hauntings over a drink. Plenty of bachelorette parties, birthdays and work crews do both in one weekend. For a night that starts earlier, the original ghost tour departs nightly at 7 PM and welcomes all ages.
Questions people ask
Is there an adults-only ghost tour in Flagstaff?
Yes, two. Freaky Foot Tours runs Mountain Town of Madness, an 18+ haunted history tour, Friday and Saturday nights at 9 PM, and Spirits With The Spirits, a 21+ haunted pub crawl available as a private booking. Both are from the locally owned company that started Flagstaff ghost tours in 2015.
What makes the adults-only tour different from the regular ghost tour?
The route overlaps, the stories do not. Mountain Town of Madness carries the true-crime cases and after-dark history that the all-ages tour softens or skips, told without censoring. It also departs later, at 9 PM, when downtown is quieter.
Do I need ID?
Yes. Mountain Town of Madness is 18+ and the pub crawl is 21+, and guides check. Drinks on the pub crawl are purchased at each stop and are optional.
How much does it cost and how do I book?
Mountain Town of Madness books online through our secure Peek calendar from the tour page. The pub crawl is currently a private booking: send an inquiry with your group size and preferred dates and we will build the night around you.
