Las Vegas is a favorite tourist destination, as hundreds of thousands of people visit this popular gambling city each year. Beyond the typical Las Vegas activities such as gambling, live entertainment and shopping, there are also some lesser known, if rather odd, attractions in this city as well.
The Haunted Vegas Tour and Show is a guided bus ride. During the three-hour ride, the most haunted places in Las Vegas are pointed out. This tour is not just a Halloween scare, but true accounts of actual reported hauntings in the area. The tour includes a seance, hosted by a medium who attempts to contact spirits. Children younger than 13 must have a parent or guardian accompany them on this sometimes-frightening tour.
