About this quest
Forget every ghost story you've heard about this city. This Halloween, ten restless spirits are loose on its streets. 👻 No history book knows their names. No tour guide has heard of them. Most are just lost souls. One is lying to you. 💀
A hooded Oracle needs a ghost hunter. Every spirit is stuck on unfinished business: solve its mystery, catch it, and it gives up a clue. Follow the trail across town, crack ciphers and riddles (some only the street itself can answer), then name the Evil One and destroy it before it finds you. 🕷️
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Starting at LBC in Riverside, this 2.1 km trail sends you after ten restless spirits in about 90 minutes, solving ciphers and riddles that only the street can answer before naming the one who is lying. Friends, couples, thrill-seekers and families with older kids who prefer playing to listening will enjoy it. Pick a guided night walk if you want a live host, or if your children scare easily.

Frequently asked questions
Where does this Riverside ghost hunt start, and how far do we walk?
It starts at Point 1, LBC, and the trail covers about 2.1 km across town. Along the way you track ten restless spirits, solve each one's mystery to catch it, and collect a clue from it, all on your phone.
Is this haunted walk good for adults?
Yes. It suits friends, couples and solo thrill-seekers as much as families. Instead of listening to a guide, you crack ciphers and riddles, some that only the street itself can answer, then name the Evil One among the spirits and destroy it.
How is this different from a guided ghost tour?
There is no guide and no fixed start time. You begin whenever you like, the app leads you from place to place and tells each spirit's story, and you can pause and carry on later. Most groups take around 90 minutes.
Is it suitable for kids?
It works best for families with older kids who enjoy riddles and a spooky story. The puzzles include ciphers, and the plot asks you to work out which spirit is lying to you, so very young children may find it hard to follow or too scary.
Can we play as a group, and do we need to book a time?
One ticket covers your whole group, and there is no time slot to book. Head out whenever suits you, play together on your phones, and pause between spirits if you need a break before picking the trail up again.
