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 Macon City Hall, this 2 km downtown trail passes the Otis Redding Museum, Rosa Parks Square and the Capitol Theatre while you catch ten Halloween spirits with ciphers and riddles in about 90 minutes. Friends, couples, teens and escape-room fans who prefer solving to listening will enjoy it. Anyone wanting a guide with real local ghost lore, or with young children who scare easily, should look elsewhere.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a good Halloween activity for teens?
Yes, it suits teens and older kids well. The story is a Halloween ghost hunt: ten spirits are loose, each with a mystery to solve, and one of them is lying to you. Players crack ciphers and riddles, then name the Evil One. The horror theme may be too much for young children.
How is this different from a guided Macon ghost tour?
There is no guide and no fixed start time. You play on your phone, which leads you from stop to stop, tells each spirit's story and sets the puzzles. You can start whenever you like, and the walk covers about 2 km in around 90 minutes.
Does it visit Macon's well-known haunted houses?
No. The ten spirits in this hunt are new characters, not the familiar local legends, so even people who know Macon's ghost stories will meet them for the first time. The route passes real places such as the Otis Redding Museum, Rosa Parks Square and St. Joseph Catholic Church.
Where does the ghost hunt start?
It starts at Macon City Hall. From there the trail takes you to stops including H&H Soul, the Otis Redding Museum, Rosa Parks Square, Proudeit Park, St. Joseph Catholic Church and the Capitol Theatre, covering about 2 km in total.
Can we play as a group, and can we take a break?
Yes. One ticket covers your whole group, so friends or family can hunt the spirits together. You do not need to book a time slot, and you can pause the game, stop for food or a rest, and continue later from where you left off.
