About this quest
Forget every ghost story you've heard about this city. This Halloween, ten restless spirits are loose on its streets. 👻 No history book knows their names. No tour guide has heard of them. Most are just lost souls. One is lying to you. 💀
A hooded Oracle needs a ghost hunter. Every spirit is stuck on unfinished business: solve its mystery, catch it, and it gives up a clue. Follow the trail across town, crack ciphers and riddles (some only the street itself can answer), then name the Evil One and destroy it before it finds you. 🕷️
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Starting from LBC, this 1.9 km El Paso trail takes around 90 minutes: track ten restless spirits, crack their riddles and ciphers, and name the one lying to you. Friends, couples, families with older kids and escape-room fans who prefer playing to listening will enjoy it. If you want a live guide recounting the city's documented ghost lore, or a walk for small children, pick something else.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a ghost tour of El Paso, TX?
It is a self-guided ghost hunt played on your phone rather than a guided tour. The app leads you across town on a 1.9 km route, tells each spirit's story and sets a puzzle at each stop. The ten ghosts are original characters, not the city's familiar legends.
Is it like an escape game?
It suits escape game fans who like to play rather than listen. You crack ciphers and riddles, some of which only the street in front of you can answer, to solve each spirit's unfinished business and earn a clue. The finale asks you to name the Evil One and destroy it. It is played outdoors while walking, not in a room.
How long does it take and where does it start?
Plan on around 90 minutes for the 1.9 km route, depending on how fast you solve the puzzles. The hunt begins at Point 1, listed as LBC in the app, which then guides you from spirit to spirit. You can pause at any point and continue later.
Is it good for kids?
It works best for older kids who enjoy spooky stories and can help with ciphers and riddles. The theme is Halloween horror, with lost souls and an Evil One to unmask, so younger children who scare easily may find it too much.
Do we need to book a time, and can our group play together?
There is no fixed start time, so you can begin whenever suits you, with no guide or other groups to wait for. One ticket covers your whole group, and you play together on your phone as you walk the route.
