Overview

    Devastating fires swept across the Third Ward in 1892 leading to tales that they were predicted by spiritual mediums. Some say they were caused by plots of sabotage and revenge and you'll hear stories that the fire chief heard a voice warning him about the fires before anyone else knew. The Third Ward was called the Blood Third in the mid-19th-century due to street gangs and groups of thugs but it was also home to the city's best hotels and businesses. You'll hear about the ghost of a small boy, Timmy, who at the Institute of Beauty and Wellness has scared many students over the years.

    Last but by no means least you'll be taken to Milwaukee's most haunted location the Pfiser Hotel where the spirit of Charles Pfiser still roams. Famous baseball players from the Dodgers and the Giants are amongst those who have been privy to these sightings, some say it's Charles's way of supporting from beyond the grave.

What to Expect

    Join us for a private walking ghost tour of Milwaukee’s haunted historic Third Ward. As the largest city in Wisconsin with an industrial past, it’s no surprise that the city is riddled with spectral stories, which your guide will bring to life for you! In the mid-nineteenth century, the Third Ward was more commonly called the Blood Third, where roving thugs and gangs operated in the streets. It was also home to elegant hotels, prominent businesses, and hard-working families - which made for decades of reputational clashes in the neighbourhood. In 1892, a series of fires swept across the Third Ward and the city, leaving behind eery tales of mediums having predicted the fire, of sabotage and revenge - even stories from the fire chief who was awoken in his dreams by a voice to notify him of fires before the rest of the firehouse knew. Your private spectral tour is two hours and just under two miles, suitable for people of all ages, provided that adults are present with children.
