We were pretty disappointed with the tour. Another couple was late and the tour guide spent a portion of the tour taking calls and guiding the late group to our session. This really killed the vibe and made it hard to be immersed.
The ghost stories were decent, but a large majority were all within a very close 1 block radius of each other. This did not feel like a walking tour as we did far more standing than walking.
When we reached our destination at Oz park, the guide ended on an underwhelming story. We were very caught off guard and surprised at how abrupty this ended.

From Chicago or not give this tour a try n hope that you get the...
