PHOENIX GHOST TOUR FIELD GUIDE
Pedicabs After Dark: A Trial Ride Through Phoenix’s Haunted Corners
A 1.5-hour, ages-12-and-up pedicab tour that pairs a candlelit visit inside St. Mary’s Basilica with a rolling ghost-story circuit of downtown Phoenix.
Pedicabs After Dark: A Trial Ride Through Phoenix’s Haunted Corners.
The Wheel-y Cool Haunted Phoenix TRIAL Tour straps riders into pedicabs for a compact, after-dark sweep of the city’s most notorious haunted addresses — from a quiet, candlelit moment inside St. Mary’s Basilica to curbside tales by hotels, theatres and hidden alleys. It’s a small, mobile evening of sacred architecture and local ghost lore led by Get Ghosted Phoenix in partnership with Blue Lyon Pedicabs.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Sacred Night at St. Mary’s Basilica
The route pauses for an evocative, indoor visit to St. Mary’s Basilica — a deliberate contrast to the street-level hauntings that follow and a centerpiece of the tour’s blend of sacred beauty and legend.
Pedicab Patrol Through Infamous Sites
Riders cruise downtown in Blue Lyon pedicabs, rolling past Phoenix landmarks tied to haunted stories — Rosson House, Melinda’s Alley, Hotel San Carlos, the Orpheum Theatre and Hanny’s — while guides relay unsolved mysteries and local lore.
Optional Hands-On Ghost Hunt
After the pedicab circuit, opt in for a $5 add-on ghost hunt that uses real paranormal gear — EMF detectors and spirit boxes — for a closing, participatory investigation.
