In the 90-minute Ghosts & Legends of San Antonio tour, storyteller Randy introduces groups to southern Texas's spooky folklore during a nearly one-mile jaunt past regional landmarks. Departing nightly at 9 p.m. from the gazebo adjacent to the Menger Hotel, tours glide past the stomping grounds of the terrifying Donkey Lady and the wailing La Llorona. As the historical and cultural narrative draws to a close, the ghoulish evening wraps up with a visit to unmarked graves on the Alamo's hallowed grounds.

Guests of all ages are welcome on this family-friendly tour. Children 10 and younger are free.

Silverghost Tours

History books chronicle the happenings of politicians and leaders of a country, state, or city, but a folklorist shares the stories and lives of the people who made a community what it is. In the Ghosts & Legends tours—a series of tales about the local and infamous—Randy Felts weaves a blend of south Texas history and tall tales that date back up to 500 years. Randy loves a good ghost story, but what he loves even more is sharing a good ghost story. As a USA Today writer puts it, “Felts likes to emphasize history, culture and drama rather than ghost hunting,” which is further exemplified by his lack of paranormal investigative equipment on each nightly tour.

The Groupon Guide to: a Unique Wedding

Your wedding should be a reflection of every aspect of your personality and a definitive way to prove to your cousins that you are interesting. Here are some suggestions for making your wedding an original, spectacular, lovetastic journey:

  • Mason jars instead of champagne flutes

  • You're not the kind of person who would want a cake like everyone else's, so make the cake out of grilled steaks and have the frosting be mashed potatoes.

  • You won't want gifts, so just have a station where people can write short works of magical realist fiction about you and your fiancé.

  • Instead of a ring bearer, use a trained miniature horse. He hands out pamphlets about a charity working to save a rare breed of sparrows that are going extinct on Georgia farms.

  • Tables are boring, but piles of freshly cut firewood aren't.

  • Replace the guests with glass orbs full of water and rose petals. Replace your fiancé with a scarecrow made of your mom's vintage scarves.

Where is the best local farm to find a ring bearer?
