Haunted Trolley Tours

Haunted trolley tours include a three-hour jaunt to some of Alton’s most sinister haunts…

-  First stop is the Stratford Hotel!! This once majestic hotel, built in 1909, has set vacant for many years. We'll visit the Hemingwayesque Hilltop Room in search of lingering spirits.

-  We'll also return to the very eerie Milton School!! The scene of a tragic murder, this site begs the question - can a haunted location be too scary?   (Due to the annual Halloween party, the Milton School is not available on Nov. 1.  We will substitute with an extended visit to the Alton City Cemetery.)

-  As always, our last stop will be the enigmatic McPike Mansion. Sitting vacant, aside from its ghostly inhabitants, this historic dwelling is the epitome of a haunted house. Join in a dark room session in the vaulted wine cellar – where many elemental spirits reside.

Testimonals

I cannot say enough positive things about this tour. Even my skeptic husband enjoyed it immensely for the history, and getting to see these older buildings. We plan to go on this tour every October now!

Last fall my Fiance and I went on the Alton Odyssey Tous to experience all of the spooky features Alton, IL has to offer. We had an amazing time participating in the tour. The staff was so well informed and had many cool ghost gadgets for the customers to use while listening to the rich history that is haunting Alton. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get out and experience a different kind of date night or even a family affair. We can’t wait to go again this year and for many years to come as the hosts keep adding more each year for the viewers experience! Thank you Alton Odyssey Tours.
