Ketchikan Ghost Walk
Walk the misty streets of Alaska’s “First City” on a spine-tingling ghost tour through Ketchikan’s haunted history. Led by expert storytellers from American Ghost Walks, this tour blends local legends, real ghost sightings, and unexplained phenomena. You’ll visit historic sites like the Gilmore Hotel, Tongass Trading Company, and Creek Street’s red-light district—where spirits of madams, miners, and even cryptids may still roam. Hear tales of shadowy figures, floating beds, haunted hospitals, and legendary beings like the Kushtaka and Sasquatch. It’s not a haunted house—it’s real history with a supernatural twist.

The Rock
Start your journey at this waterfront sculpture honoring Ketchikan’s pioneers—loggers, bush pilots, frontierswomen, and a Tlingit drummer said to channel the spirit world.
Ketchikan Sign
Snap a photo under Ketchikan’s iconic archway—but hear the legend of the time it twisted into a frown, a bad omen for fishermen that still unsettles the locals.
At the historic Gilmore Hotel, you’ll hear about a shadowy man seen pacing with a cigar, chairs that move on their own, and a ghostly woman in white who stares from the windows before vanishing. Some guests even report waking up to find themselves floating above their beds—especially in Room 208, the most haunted room in the building.
