Berkeley Haunted Hike

Three hours full of true ghost stories and paranormal evidence. This tour gets creepier as you go! The second half is not for the easily scared!

The Haunted Bay is an authentic Bay Area paranormal investigations series and we will take you on a trek across the campus and nearby grounds, across dark paths and stop at old haunted buildings. You'll hear the ghost legends and true ghost stories that have been told by witnesses, reported in the news and experienced by psychic mediums and we'll share our personal experiences and evidence gathered during paranormal investigations. People have found the second half really creepy so if you get scared easily, this may not be the tour for you!

Basics:

Start time: Varies according to the season. Please check our calendar (hike will last around 3 hours, but may be a bit shorter or longer depending on what happens). For safety reasons, The Haunted Hike will run only if we have two guests minimum. Refunds, alternative dates or an alternative (with fewer dark areas and discounted) tour will be offered if we cannot run the Haunted Hike due to low ticket sales.

Meeting point: In front of the main doors of the Bakar Ingenuity Hub at 2630 Bancroft Way in Berkeley to the left of the silver letters.

End Point: East of Clark Kerr Campus. It will be 15-20 minutes to walk back to the starting point if you need to go there. If you want to park near the endpoint, then it is best to park on Dwight and Sports Lane.

What to bring/prepare: Wear long pants, comfortable closed toed shoes. Bring a small flashlight or phone with a light, water and a well fitted mask in case we get indoor access to a location (not guaranteed). You are welcome to bring paranormal investigation apps and equipment as long as they are not too disruptive to the tour.

Important information:

This is a semi-strenuous walk with hills, stairs, dark pathways and uneven ground with rocks, vegetation, branches and debris.

You will be asked to sign a liability waiver and photo/video release to participate in the hike.

Please do not attend if you are sick, even if it occurs the day of. Just let us know and we can issue a refund or find another date. You can text us at 510-338-2039.

Mature themes will be discussed. We will talk about some dark, mature topics, including true crime details, so this tour may not be appropriate for children under 15.

Tours will only run if there are a minimum of two guests. Hike time may vary depending on how much paranormal activity is picked up, questions, and breaks. Allow time for parking as it can be difficult at times. We advise using the restroom before the tour starts. Nearest restrooms are at Caffe Strada at 2300 College Ave. (around the back) and Freehouse Pub (2700 Bancroft Way).
