From there, visit eerie landmarks including the Texas Capitol, Paramount Theatre, and the Driskill Hotel, known for its tragic bridal suite and lingering spirits.

Itinerary

1. The Tavern

Start your journey at one of Austin’s oldest bars, originally a grocery store turned Prohibition-era speakeasy. Hear the chilling true story of Emily, a young girl said to haunt the building to this day, and step inside to view her shoes still on display behind the bar.

Duration: 25 mins

2. Texas Capitol

Walk the haunted grounds of the Texas State Capitol while learning about the state’s political history, symbolic architecture, and eerie local lore. Hear tales of the Lady in Red, the ghostly comptroller, and a law that once banned taller buildings.

Duration: 10 mins

3. Paramount Theatre

As we gather outside the majestic Paramount Theatre, you'll feel the weight of its storied past. This grand old venue has been a cornerstone of Austin's cultural scene since 1915. But beyond its elegant façade lies a spine-chilling tale that has haunted the theatre for years.

Duration: 5 mins

4. Omni Austin Hotel Downtown

Step inside what was once the home of Mirabeau Buonaparte Lamar, the second President of the Republic of Texas, a man who fought fiercely to keep Austin as the capital and whose legacy lives on in the very streets you've walked tonight. But the history here doesn't stop with presidents. This is also where you'll hear the story of Jack, a travelling salesman who arrived in Austin chasing fame and fortune, and never quite made it home.

Duration: 30 mins
