The last time you ran into a long-dead gangster on the street, you had forgotten to take the non-drowsy Benadryl. Today’s Groupon to Chicago Hauntings Tours gets you all the spirits and undead visitations a sane person could want with an adult ticket for $14 ($28 value) or a child’s ticket for $10 ($20 value, ages 12 and under) to see the company’s signature tour. Today's Groupon is good until September 15, 2010. You can choose to troll the scary back alleys and notorious ghost-ridden spots of Chicago any Friday at 8 p.m., Saturday at 7 p.m., or Sunday at 3 p.m.
Wait for the spooky black bus to pick you up at 600 N. Clark (next to the spooky-in-a-different-way Rock N Roll McDonald's) to begin your spine-curdling two-hour tour. Because Chicago Hauntings Ghost Tour prides itself on being able to creep out the most avid paranormal activists, you won’t just drive past Chicago’s most haunted spots with your nose pressed against the glass and your feet against the ceiling. Chicago Hauntings knows that, despite their ability to pass through walls, ghosts have a tendency to be homebodies, so your guide will stop the bus at several of the most actively ghoulish sites. You’ll walk around to properly feel the chill of winter’s dead touch. Chat with the ghost of John Dillinger about Apple tablet rumors before the Biograph Theater, or huddle against the ghastly breath on your neck at Candyman’s Cabrini-Green. Sites change from trip to trip, so even if you’ve already been before, you’re likely to find a new scare.
Ghost tours are a great excuse to snuggle up with your sweetie this Valentine's Day. You'll also form lasting bonds with new friends as you learn about the curse of the Billy Goat and the phantoms of Fort Dearborn. The expert tour guides at Chicago Hauntings have performed extensive research on each of the haunted sites you’ll visit, and their entertaining stories have a way of bringing ghouls out from their hiding places to perform popular dances from the '40s.
Reviews
Haunted America lists Chicago Hauntings as one of the Top Ten Ghost Tours in the U.S. Time Out Chicago calls the tour one of the top in metropolitan area:
- Upon boarding the black school bus adorned with fake bullet-hole decals, we worried we’d gotten ourselves into one hell of a tourist gimmick. But a few hours after the Chicago Hauntings Ghost Tour ended, we were looking over our shoulders for the bogeyman. – Lissa Bennett, Time Out Chicago
Yelpers give Chicago Hauntings a solid four stars, while TripAdvisors give it 3.5 owl eyes:
- These people really know their ghost stories and Chicago history! – Smokey596, TripAdvisor
- It was a great way for us to see Chicago in a different light. We went to places we wouldn't have gone to or had time to drive around too on our own. – k324, TripAdvisor

A wise man once said, “A city tour is only as good as its sights.” Chicago Hauntings Tours takes that to heart and delivers some of the most unique and riveting city spectacles: real live ghosts. Here's just a sampling of the amazing sights you may or may not see:
- A ghost pretending it's riding a lion in the 2007 Kentucky Derby outside the Art Institute.
- A ghost construction worker taking a break to talk to other ghosts about last night's episode of Gary Unmarried.
- A ghost stuck in a Chinese finger-trap in front of Harpo Studios.
- The ghost of Dan Aykroyd waiting by Billy Goat Tavern to tell people that he was on Saturday Night Live, but never on Soul Man.
