If you want a bone-chilling good time, then you've come to the right place! Unexplained mysteries, ghostly adventures and spooky stories fill our “Beyond Bizarre” evening tour. If you like the paranormal, weird, or wacky, let us guide you on a dark evening. Believer or not - people of all faiths and backgrounds, including skeptics, are welcomed.

If you've seen the "Ghost Hunter" TV show, then you might be familiar with the the equipment we hand out only to people who buy tickets in advance. Armed with real ghost hunting equipment, we'll venture down shadowy streets to reveal Portland’s paranormal, catch glimpses of ghosts, expose psychic hoaxes and duck through haunted passageways. This is NOT a theatrical performance where we dress up and carry a lantern. This is a view into the reality of Portland's weird, wacky, and paranormal side. Everything is real and nothing is staged - at no point during the tour will we ever try to scare you. That may happen naturally.

In the winter of 2007, we hired two consultants - a leading expert on the paranormal and a proven clairvoyant - to help us bring this skeptical (and not theatrical) event to you. Now with all of the knowledge the guides have, all of us are certified members of the International Ghost Hunters Society and participants in the local Ghostlusters Paranormal Society.

Kids of all ages are welcome on our 7 p.m. tour where we do not get into murders, suicides, or other controversial materials. Or, if you dare, buy tickets now for our exclusive 10 p.m. over-21 night crawling event on Fridays and Saturdays. No matter which one you join, you'll have a exciting and entertaining time on our weird, wacky, and eerie crawl through the creepiest parts of Portland!

"It wasn't all fun and games though, because "Sam" was awake that night. In one area of the hall the EMF meters, including my own, started going crazy. It happened on the exact spot where Rose had been savagely killed."
