Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Grove Arcade, 1 Page Ave, Asheville, NC 28801-2382
Hear the controversial story of the murder of Helen Clevenger in the Battery Park Hotel, and why a blood-red haze is said to appear around her murder-room window on the anniversary of the tragedy.

Stop At: Basilica of Saint Lawrence, 97 Haywood St, Asheville, NC 28801-2852
This building's architect is entombed in the wall of this church, and his apparition is seen roaming in the night, gazing, in awe, at the world-class dome he constructed with a secret method.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Thomas Wolfe Memorial, 52 N Market St, Asheville, NC 28801-8105

Tad's presentation was very dramatic. There were some interesting stories, particularly about the Pink Lady and about the men seen jumping from the tall building. We learned some Asheville history and saw some historic sites on the tour.

I go to a ghost walk whenever I travel if one is available. This is by far one of the two best I have ever been on. The other gem was a ghost walk in Gettysburg; so that is a great recommendation for Ashville. Our tour guide was Brian who was funny, knowledgeable and easy to hear and follow. ...
I go to a ghost walk whenever I travel if one is available. This is by far one of the two best I have ever been on. The other gem was a ghost walk in Gettysburg; so that is a great recommendation for Ashville. Our tour guide was Brian who was funny, knowledgeable and easy to hear and follow. Brian is a believer and told us about some of his experiences but was open to other beliefs. He separated stories that were just "legend" and those that seemed more true. My friend and I also got a GREAT feel for the history of Ashville. It was probably the favorite thing we did during an already great vacation. My advice is GO!Pamela_K
