This is a small-group guided ghost and historical walking tour of Jerome, Arizona, which the operator calls the Wickedest Town in the West. You stroll through the remnants of the old mining town while your guide provides narrated commentary, with an optional chance to try E.V.P. ghost-sensing equipment to detect spectral presences. That optional equipment sets it apart from a pure storytelling walk and gives interested visitors a hands-on element.
Jerome sits on a steep hillside above the Verde Valley and was one of Arizona's largest cities in its copper-mining heyday before most of its population left, which is why it is known as one of the country's largest ghost towns. A walking tour is a fitting way to explore that history on foot. This suits travelers who want both the historical side and the option to experiment with ghost-hunting gear, rather than a passive ride-through.
