How to Ghost Hunt in Arizona

1. Phoenix Arizona is not only scenic, but filled with great shops and restaurants. Also the home of the Arizona State Prison Complex, the Flamenco Unit is said to host the ghosts of past inmates and patients. Keys rattling and the apparition of a woman are said to be heard and seen here.
2. While in Phoenix, be sure to stop at the historic San Carlos Hotel. Built in the 1920's this area is said to host many ghost children who can be heard running up and down the stairs at night. Spooky!
3. Tombstone is an excellent place to step back in time and experience the old west history of Arizona. While there check out the OK Corral where the ghosts of the Earps' and the Clanton brothers live out their battles again and again.
4. The Bird Cage Theater is also said to be haunted and the sounds of old time crowds and singing can be heard to those who listen. Try a little EVP work here and see what you get!
5. Last stop in Tombstone has got to be the graveyard where many well known outlaws and historic citizens are buried. Strange dancing lights have been seen here after dark!

Tips & Warnings

• Bring spare tape recorder and camera batteries as they tend to drain when spiritual activity picks up.
• Research historic areas to check on fees and hours of operation.
