Barbary Coast (Gold Rush-era San Francisco waterfront district) · North Beach, San Francisco · San Francisco Chinatown
The Haunted Bay team states it has been filming paranormal investigations throughout the Bay Area since 2013, and its work is featured in the paranormal series The Haunted Bay on Amazon Prime and AsianAmericanMovies.com. Building on that investigation work, the team launched public ghost tours in San Francisco and Berkeley. The San Francisco tour walks through North Beach, the Jackson Square/Barbary Coast historic district -- once the city's notorious Gold Rush-era waterfront vice district -- and Chinatown, one of the oldest and most established Chinatowns in North America, visiting locations where the team has conducted its own on-camera investigations. The company has been covered by East Bay Times, KQED, NBC News, KRON4, SF Chronicle, and the Bay Area blog Broke-Ass Stuart.
