The adventure

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

This Long Beach route runs about 2.2 km over around 90 minutes, chasing ten restless spirits through ciphers and riddles, some answered only by the street itself. Friends, couples, families with older kids and escape-room fans who prefer playing to listening will enjoy it. Pick a guided night walk if you want someone to question, or if young children might be frightened by a lying spirit.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a guided ghost tour of Long Beach?
No, there is no live guide. You play on your phone: the app leads you from stop to stop, tells each spirit's story and sets a puzzle at each place. The ghosts are original characters, not the legends a tour guide would tell, and you start whenever you like.
How long does it take and how far do we walk?
Plan on around 90 minutes to cover about 2.2 km on foot, though your pace and how quickly you solve the riddles will change that. You can pause at any point and continue later, so there is time for a snack or a break along the way.
Is it suitable for kids?
It suits older kids and teens who enjoy spooky stories and puzzles. The theme is horror and haunts, you hunt spirits and finally name and destroy an Evil One, and the ciphers and riddles take some thinking. Younger children may find both the puzzles and the story too much.
Can we play as a group, and do we need to book a time?
Yes, one ticket covers your whole group, so friends or family can solve the mysteries together. There is no fixed departure and no time slot to book. Start any time that suits you, day or evening, and pause if you need to.
What happens if it rains?
The game is played outdoors on the streets, as many of the riddles are answered by what is in front of you. If the weather turns, you can pause the hunt and pick it up again later from where you stopped.
