Host a ghost

During the holiday season, many people open their homes to family and friends, but what about ghosts?

In this “Elf on the Shelf” type tradition, you can ward off spirits and other things that may go bump in the night with Lily, a haunted doll that is “surprisingly effective at both warding off ghosts and scaring your friends,” according to River City Ghosts.

Ghost tour on your phone

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tour company shut down in-person tours.

Utilizing the iTourMobile App, available on IOS and Android devices, you can turn your phone into a tour guide.

Enjoy a self-guided tour through haunted locations for a spine-tingling time full of spooky images and creepy facts.

Spooky Alexa?

The company has launched the first voice app to tell ghost stories on Alexa or Google Assistant devices.

The app delivers over 100 voice actor-narrated ghost stories from over 20 cities.

To use the app, simply say these magic words:

“Hey, Alexa, open Ghost Adventures" or “Hey, Google, talk to Ghost Adventures.”
