About Haunting Trails
Where history meets mystery and every shadow tells a story
Our Story
Ghost stories, tragedies and tales of true crime aren’t just morbid curiosities - they’re folk memories. Each whispered haunting reveals what a community fears, cherishes and is shaped by. We believe, to truly understand a city, you have to start where the glossy tourist brochures end - with the unpolished, sometimes uncomfortable, truths some would prefer to forget.
Haunting Trails was born from a simple belief: the most compelling stories are often hidden in plain sight, waiting in the shadows of our everyday world. We help you dig past postcard clichés to confront darker chapters: injustice, obsession, resilience.
Founded by a team of historians, storytellers, and paranormal enthusiasts, we've spent years researching the dark corners of history that traditional tours often overlook. We take pride in creating tours that are longer and more in-depth than most - bringing chilling narratives to life through cutting-edge technology and immersive storytelling.
Our Mission
To make history's most fascinating and frightening stories accessible to everyone, anywhere, at any time.
What Makes Us Different
Authentic Research
Every stop is meticulously curated and researched using historical records, local archives, and firsthand accounts. We don't just tell ghost stories - we reveal true histories.
Location-Based Magic
Our carefully planned routes mean you hear each tale exactly where it happened, creating an immersive experience that traditional tours can't match.
Your Own Pace
No rushing, no crowds, no schedules. Explore when you want, how you want, and take as long as you need to soak in each spine-chilling moment.
Our Values
Truth in Storytelling
We believe the truth is often stranger - and scarier - than fiction. Every tale we tell is rooted in historical fact and local legend.
Respect for Culture
We recognise the powerful meaning of each tragedy to local communities. Our stories make every effort to honour the cultural significance and sensitivity of each location.
Immersive Experience
Technology should enhance, not distract from, the story. Our app disappears into the background, letting the tales take center stage.
