Looking for something spooky to do for Halloween that doesn’t involve actors screaming at you, chainsaws, and jump scares? Then maybe you should consider going on a ghost tour! These tours take you to haunted places and recount the stories of their haunting. Below I have compiled a list of tours in and near the Lehigh Valley. Please note, I have never had the pleasure of taking any of these tours myself, so these are NOT endorsements, just a list! If you have taken any of these tours, feel free to review your experience in the comments!
Please also check out my lists of non-scary corn mazes around the valley, and haunted attractions around the valley (you know the kind with the chainsaws and jump scares).
