By 1890, some forty millionaires lived along St. Paul’s Summit Avenue — and the local legend is that a few of them never left. Spirits of Summit Avenue walks the grandest haunted street in the Midwest, courtesy of the city’s original ghost tour company.
The avenue is a study in Gilded Age opulence: block after block of Victorian mansions built by railroad and timber fortunes. Behind the perfect facades, the tour’s original research uncovers Victorian-era ghost stories, secrets and mysteries that lurk in the shadows of the drawing rooms.
It is an exclusive, elegant kind of eerie — more chandelier than jump scare — and it runs with the city’s pioneering ghost storytellers. From $34.99 per person; mind you don’t pick up a permanent resident as a souvenir.
