Detroit is haunted by ghosts! Gather your family and go out for a Halloween fun night full of adventure, laughter, and spooky surprises.
About this Event

This Halloween, you and your family become a team of professional ghosthunters. Together, you’ll wander the streets of Detroit, collect hidden clues, and hunt for ghosts said to be hiding all around the city.


It’s the perfect way to enjoy Halloween outdoors away from screens, endless TikTok scrolls, and video games. Instead, you'll be laughing, exploring, solving puzzles and discovering mysteries behind haunted places - IN THE REAL WORLD. It's also less about jump scares or creepy horror frights and more about adventure, teamwork, and creating fun memories.

  • Your own ghost hunting story where your family plays the main characters!
  • A combo of outdoor escape room puzzles, scavenger hunt collectibles and walking tour health benefits.
  • A route of 10 hand-picked locations in the heart of Detroit that are both beautiful and safe to explore.
