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 at LBC, this Grand Rapids route covers about 2 km in around 90 minutes, as you catch ten invented spirits and crack ciphers and riddles, some only the street can answer. Friends, couples, families with older kids and escape-room fans who prefer playing to listening will enjoy it. If you want real local ghost lore from a guide on a night walk, choose a guided tour instead.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a guided ghost tour of Grand Rapids?
No. It is a self-guided ghost walk played on your phone. The app leads you from place to place, tells each story and sets a puzzle in what is in front of you. There is no guide and no fixed start time, so you begin whenever you like.
What happens during the hunt in Grand Rapids?
A hooded Oracle recruits you as a ghost hunter. Ten spirits are each stuck on unfinished business. Solve a spirit's mystery, catch it, and it gives up a clue. Follow the trail, crack ciphers and riddles, then name the Evil One and destroy it. One spirit is lying to you.
Where does it start and how long does it take?
The walk starts at Point 1, LBC, and the app guides you from there. Plan on around 90 minutes to cover about 2 km on foot, though you can take longer. You can pause at any point and continue later.
Is it suitable for kids?
It suits families with older kids who can handle a spooky story and enjoy working through ciphers and riddles, some of which need clues found on the street. Younger children may find the puzzles hard to follow and the ghost theme too frightening.
Can our group play together, and do we need to book a time?
Yes, one ticket covers your whole group, up to the number of devices stated for the quest. There is no time slot to book: start whenever suits you, and pause and pick it up again later if you need a break.
