Spooky rather than Scary - The tour was very informative and entertaining. Our tour guide, Savannah, did a great job of telling the stories and was very engaging. It’s not like a haunted house with characters jumping out at you which made it more enjoyable for those of us who do not like that.

Haunted Fort Henry Tour - We really enjoyed our August 25th tour of the Fort. Our guide was Isabella and she was excellent. She was animated and knowledgeable. The tour is well done, lots of interesting stories about the ghost sightings, history of the Fort.

10/10 would recommend - Isabella was great! Very interesting and spooky tour. Not too long or too short, just the right length. Be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes as there can be steep stairs and slippery bits and a decent amount of walking. Definitely would recommend

Well worth it!👻 - Our guide was Mischa and she was outstanding. Knowledgeable, likeable and just the right tone. The tour itself was very entertaining and informative. Spooky to be sure. We were always looking over our shoulders. Our 12 year old grandson greatly appreciated the experience. Highly recommend!

Very very creepy - I recently went on The Ghosts of Fort Henry tour in Kingston and had an amazing experience! Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and brought the history of the fort to life in such a captivating way. It was fascinating to explore the grounds at night – a completely different atmosphere than during the day. The dark corridors, echoing footsteps, and eerie stories made it genuinely creepy (in the best way possible!). I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a mix of history, atmosphere, and spine-tingling fun.

High School Student Rolls Out Of Bed and Into Work. - I guess it all depends on your tour guide maybe? The scariest thing, was in fact, our tour guide and not the tour. Look, I know some people get nervous speaking in public and he did ok when he stuck to the historic parts. But the failed attempts at humor were awkward and maybe before presenting ones self as a speaker would have looked in the mirror before rolling out of bed and into work that day? I'd save your $$
