Explore Oakland's underworld as the ultimate Ghost Hunter: follow supernatural clues, solve sinister puzzles & track restless spirits!
About this Event

Every night, the city comes alive… with ghosts!

Grab your paranormal-detecting device and go outside for the best thing-to-do in the evening: HUNTING FOR GHOSTS!

10 restless spirits are roaming the streets at night — but one hides an evil purpose. YOUR MISSION is to track the ghosts, find out their creepy stories, solve their sinister challenges, and catch the evil one plotting to unleash terror and posses the city.


This hunt is unlike anything else in Oakland!

  • it's fully self-guided. You start whenever you want and you move at your own pace.
  • it's fully outdoors: no annoying queues, no overcrowded spaces and no useless interactions with weird strangers (unless you want to).
  • it's fully interactive: search for clues in the real world and interact with real life objects to solve challenges and puzzles.
  • it's fully fun: who doesn't like exploring haunted (but safe) streets, collecting supernatural evidence and roleplaying in creepy stories?

DETAILS:
  • 📅 Available everyday from 5 PM
  • 🕒 Duration: ~90 minutes
  • 📱 Requirements: Smartphone with internet connection
  • 🕵️‍♀️ No group limit: Come with your lover, your friends or come alone (if you dare)

Fun, spooky, and completely local—this is your city after dark like you’ve never seen it.
