Downtown Greensboro Historic District · Biltmore Hotel (1905) · Carolina Theatre (1927)
US Ghost Adventures runs guided ghost walks in more than 250 U.S. cities; in Greensboro, North Carolina, the local-facing brand is Greensboro Ghosts. The flagship walking tour, Gallows, Gunpowder, & Graves of Greensboro, meets in front of Blandwood Museum at 447 W Washington St and covers about one mile of downtown Greensboro in roughly an hour, with an extended bonus tour also offered.
The route's three anchor stops are documented downtown Greensboro landmarks. The Biltmore Hotel, built in 1905, began as a denim-trade office building before later becoming an apartment complex and hotel. M'Coul's is a pub occupying the former Piedmont Hotel building. The Carolina Theatre, a Greek Revival-influenced venue that opened in 1927, survived a 1981 arson attempt. Greensboro Ghosts has its own TripAdvisor attraction listing under that name, corroborating that the program operates as a local attraction.
US Ghost Adventures guides are identifiable by branded shirts and lanterns; tours run nightly, rain or shine, year-round.

At the Biltmore Hotel, the operator's narrative centers on Room 332 and a ghost the operator ties to a fatal fall from the building's third floor. At M'Coul's, the operator recounts the building's earlier use as the Piedmont Hotel, described as operating as a brothel into the 1960s, with reported spirits of former workers.
At the Carolina Theatre, the operator's account centers on a 1981 incident in which the operator says a patron attempted to set the building on fire and died in the attempt, with reported sightings of a figure pacing the mezzanine since. The operator's broader Greensboro copy also references the Guilford Courthouse National Military Park, the Central Carolina Convalescent Hospital site, and several area college campuses as additional haunted locations, but frames these as background material and other haunted hotspots rather than the guided route's named stops.
All of this is the tour operator's own marketing and narrative material, not documented history independently verified for this listing; it is included here as a description of what the tour covers, not as an endorsement of any specific claim.
