The operator's own copy describes its ghost tour content as covering Civil War phantoms, wandering apparitions, and eyewitness accounts of hauntings gathered from what it describes as ghost hunters, paranormal investigators, and psychics it works with. The route is not broken down stop by stop on the operator's public pages; instead it is described generally as a lantern-lit walk through Old Town's historic alleys and plazas.

All of this is the tour operator's own marketing and narrative material, describing what the tour covers rather than an independently verified account of any specific location's history.
