I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
If you’ve ever driven down Arizona’s Historic Route 66, you probably noticed all of the dining establishments, motels, and roadside attractions from days gone by. The Mother Road, as it was called in The Grapes of Wrath, the famous novel by John Steinbeck, was established in 1926. It connected Chicago to Los Angeles and was the main road for those migrating to California during the Dust Bowl era. With all the activity it has experienced over the course of a century, it’s no wonder why Route 66 is considered the most haunted roadway in America. If you’re looking to get your kicks on Route 66 in the most unusual way possible, take the following haunted ghost tour.
Just over 385 miles of Route 66 cuts through the Grand Canyon State. What was left behind from the heyday of the Mother Road is absolutely worth discovering.
There's nothing quite like a drive along Route 66 through the state. However, some of the places left behind are hiding a dark and, in some cases, deadly, past.
Through Virgin Experience Gifts, you can book an Adults-Only Haunted Route 66 Ghost Tour to explore a portion of the country's most haunted highway. The cost is only $38 per person and it's only for ages 16 and older.
The meeting point for this tour is at the notoriously haunted Monte Vista Hotel in Flagstaff. Here's where you'll meet your guide before embarking on a 90-minute haunted adventure.
Hotel Monte Vista, 100 N San Francisco St, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, USA
Your tour starts at the hotel's infamous Room 220 where you may encounter the "Meat Man" who is said to appear there once in a while. The tour guide will then tell the gruesome tale of two prostitutes who were murdered in room 306.
Once you've been thoroughly creeped out at Hotel Monte Vista, it's time to move on down the road to another famous hotel. Hotel Weatherford is the spot where a couple on their honeymoon died and you'll hear all about it on this tour along with tales of some paranormal activity.
After the Weatherford, your guide will continue the tour along Route 66 with additional stops and ghost stories along the way. Make sure you keep your eyes peeled for any paranormal activity on this spooky tour that's like no other in the state!
Maybe after the tour, you'll want to hop in your car and keep driving along Arizona's Historic Route 66 and see what other haunted locations you can find on your own.
