Ghost City Tours Halloween 2024: A Record-Breaking Season

As the jack-o'-lanterns dim and the Halloween decorations come down, Ghost City Tours is thrilled to announce our most successful October in company history. This Halloween season, over 150,000 guests joined us across 27 cities to explore America's most haunted locations. "This Halloween exceeded all our expectations," said Tim Nealon, founder of Ghost City Tours. "The enthusiasm and passion our guests showed for authentic ghost stories and local history was incredible. We're grateful to everyone who chose to spend their Halloween with us."

The 2024 Halloween season brought remarkable growth: - **153,847 total guests** across all locations - **27 cities** hosting tours simultaneously - **2,450+ tours** conducted throughout October - **4.9-star average rating** across all platforms - **92% sold-out rate** for prime Halloween weekend tours Our busiest night was Halloween itself, with over 8,500 guests joining tours nationwide. Savannah, New Orleans, and Salem led the way with the highest attendance, but every single city reported record numbers.

Several factors contributed to this year's success. Our investment in guide training paid off, with guest feedback consistently praising the knowledge and entertainment value our tour guides provided. The introduction of Spanish-language tours in select cities also opened our experiences to new audiences. Social media played a significant role, with guests sharing their experiences across TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. Our #GhostCityTours hashtag generated over 50 million impressions during October alone. We also saw a surge in group bookings, particularly from college students and corporate teams looking for unique Halloween activities. Our private tour options proved especially popular for bachelorette parties and birthday celebrations.

None of this would be possible without our incredible team of over 500 tour guides, operations staff, and support personnel. Their dedication to delivering exceptional experiences night after night, often in challenging weather conditions, is what makes Ghost City Tours the leader in haunted tourism. Special recognition goes to our guide training program, which ensures every Ghost City Tours guide meets our high standards for historical accuracy, entertainment value, and guest safety.

While Halloween is our busiest season, ghost tours remain popular year-round. We're already preparing for the 2025 season with new tour routes, expanded scheduling, and exciting city additions. Whether you joined us this Halloween or are planning your first ghost tour, we look forward to sharing more spine-chilling stories with you. The ghosts don't stop haunting when October ends, and neither do we!
