Kansas City earned the nickname 'Paris of the Plains' during an era of jazz, vice, and Prohibition graft — and that wide-open past left a lot of restless spirits behind. Ghost City Tours leads walking tours through the haunted heart of the City of Fountains, from the vaulted halls of Union Station to the jazz-age corners of the historic 18th & Vine district, where frontier shootouts, mobsters, and pioneers all left their ghosts.
Our local guides tell the true history behind each haunting — the Union Station Massacre, the speakeasies of political boss Tom Pendergast, and the madams like Annie Chambers who ran the old West Bottoms red-light district. Take the family-friendly Ghosts of Kansas City Tour past Union Station and 18th & Vine, the adults-only Some Sins Never Die Tour into the city's vice-ridden underworld, or the Kansas City Haunted Pub Crawl through the old jazz capital's most haunted taverns.
Ghost City Tours has been telling America's darkest stories since 2012, and Kansas City's are among the most colorful yet. Book your Kansas City ghost tour today and meet the spirits still lingering in the Paris of the Plains.
