I had no idea that Minneapolis has such a rich and spooky history. The tour was vibrant, informative and just fascinating! We were the last tour of Halloween night and honestly I was scared, but in a fun way!! 🎃

Have taken a lot of tours and easily this one was the most informative and fascinating amongst them. The guides friendly demeanor and smile immediately gave off such positive vibes making the whole experience that much more enjoyable. This tour was packed with so much information, that all other tours I have taken in different cities pale in comparison!

The Pillsbury club has all the old world elegance you'd expect in a restored mansion with it's wood paneled walls and soaring old windows and giant roaring fire. The lighting felt like a fun night club, on the more eerie side of course. The trolly and attic tour were both engaging, entertaining and a little more than scary at one point (shhhh), especially after your friend's jaw dropped when feeling her hair tugged twice during the attic tour when no one was "there". Later her purse strap was pulled and actually broke during the basement tour as she was walking down the stairs to the site of a murder/suicide. The tour guide himself is delightfully energetic, funny and knows how to give you the creeps as he gives you the facts. The candles were a fun touch at nighttime. Recommend!!

Hands down, the highlight of our visit to Minneapolis! It starts at the beautiful, historic Pillsbury Club. Come early enough to look around and enjoy a cocktail and snacks! Then the tour starts. My wife and I love guided tours and hop-on/hop-off busses at any city we visit. John was the absolute best tour guide we have ever had. Friendly, enthusiastic, and entertaining!!!!!

We had such a fun time on the Candlelight Ghost Trolley Tour! The experience was fantastic from the moment we arrived at the Pillsbury Club. The spooky decorations immediately got us excited, and the little Minnesota-themed shop was so cute! The bar with spooky-themed cocktails was also a great touch and the perfect way to kick off the evening. Once we boarded the trolley, complete with our ghost glasses and candles, our guide kept the energy going with fun, informative stories and did a wonderful job keeping everyone engaged throughout the tour. It was such a unique way to learn about and experience my own city of Minneapolis from a completely different perspective! We went as a group, and everyone had an amazing time. This is such a fun activity for a group get-together, a date night, or anyone looking for something different to do in the Twin Cities. Highly recommend for a spooky, memorable night out! 👻🕯️

Our experience on October 24 was chaotic to say the least. There was such a lack of communication. There should have been someone greeting at the door or an information booth . We were not the only people who were confused about where to go and what to do. The lack of eating space was disappointing. Obviously not equipped for large groups. Before our tour I tried to get information about what to expect. I phoned and texted. Never got hold of anyone. 🫤 I think you need to improve on providing a nonchaotic experience with easily accessible information or someone to talk to. Respectfully, Becky A

the ghost tour was honestly more fun than i expected and the guide has very enjoyable, but it really bummed me out and make me kind of nervous about the tour to see how much AI slop merch there was in the gift shop/pillsbury club lobby. I get that times are tough or whatever, but it just sucks seeing so much AI on tee shirts, especially when the space is located right next to MCAD and the MIA. Please just hire someone to make merch for you or stock stuff by local artists!

The tour guide was great and very knowledgeable about the history of the buildings that were included in the trolley tour. The stories were fascinating! They give you these funky green framed ghost glasses to wear during the tour! We did the add-on haunted attic tour, which was amazing and creepy! The atmosphere of the Pillsbury club is also very cool. I highly recommend it!
