If you have a sense of humor...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/23/09
I was disappointed that we were not allowed to see any rooms that were supposed to be haunted. There was a lot of history that I found interesting, but standing in the hall through the entire lecture was not that great. Also going to the "morgue" and just seeing clutter plus when the guide seriously told us to take pictures facing a mirror and the orbs we saw would be lost spirits was just funny. If I take a picture close to a mirror anywhere I would assume there would be orbs. Wow I have spirits at my house! If you are going for history it is a great lecture. If your going for ghost good luck.
 
 
 
 
 
Great tour; High level of paranormal activity
By Mike and Karen, 08/31/09
Stories were interesting. On the 2nd floor, I sensed a presence that wanted me to come to them. Right at that moment, the tour guide looked over his shoulder and stated that something was right in the spot that I sensed the presence. Later, when I asked him if that was Dr. Baker, he said no, that it was a former patient that was in a lot of distress. When I explained that I felt a need to go to that presence, he asked me if I had former medical experience. I had been a medic with a local fire department for several years. The guide stated that was why I and no one else in the group felt that presence. In the morgue parts room, my wife saw and took picture of some manifestations. There were four faces peering at us from the upper portion of the room. One photo was of a face on the same locker that a thermal image of a person was obtained by the Sci-fi channels paranormal investigative crew. I was not able to see them but while in that room, my left arm became extremely cold and I became short of breath. "Goose bumps" appeared on that arm that were as large as acne blemishes. My left arm stayed cold for 10-15 minutes while my right arm was warm. The guide felt my arms and stated that the presence in that room had actually touched me. On the 4th floor by Theadora's room (419), the same thing happened. I moved about 10 feet and the cold went away only to affect me again within seconds after I moved. I moved again and it happened again. It was then that I told my wife that we needed to leave that floor. As soon as we did, the coldness left and my arm warmed again within 10 minutes. My wife also got pictures on the lower level in the spa area and the men's bathroom of a small child looking out from under a cloth of some sort. This was reflected in a long mirror. She also got a photo of a large streaking "ghost" in another mirror. On the 2nd floor, a tenant of the hotel opened room 218 (the most active room in the hotel) and allowed the folks on the tour to take photos. My wife got 2 pictures showing orbs in that room. As I was leaving the hotel, the tour guides were ahead of me by 20 feet and did not know I was behind them. I overheard them talking excitedly that the morgue was getting increasingly acftive and that it was not normal for so many presences to be there. Take this tour! Be open. Be intuitive. Examine your photos using zoom views. You will be delighted at the results.
 
 
 
 
 
Terrible tour...waste of time and money
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/20/09
We recently visited Eureka Springs and decided to take the ghost tour at the Crescent Hotel. What a mistake - standing in hot hall ways with 20 other people and the worst tour guide I have ever had. The stories were interesting at their core but the guide had trouble speaking in complete and coherent sentences. We left before it was over.

Interesting history, lots of fun...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/24/07
Last year four of us went to both ghost tours in Eureka Springs. We had much more success at the Basin, but the history and the stories from the Crescent are way more interesting. I actually have a picure of an aporition from the Basin. I was standing by myself in the hall (after the tour moved on) and the door behind me opened, seconds later I felt a weird chill and decided to take pictures with my digital camera. In the first couple I only had an Orb but in the third one there was a transparent man at the end of the hall. I will say that I recommend everyone go on the tours atleast once so they can learn about the hotels, but after that we just went off on our own and had way more success. We are heading back this year and hope to have more success, but if we don't atleast we know we will have a lot of fun. So if you go, try to go with an open mind and enjoy the stories. Please do not ruin it for other people in your tour group...we had a man in our group that made it obvious he did not believe in the paranormal and he made it hard for our tour guide to finish his stories.

Interesting for the history--not for ghosts
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/22/07
I felt like it was more a history of the hotel rather than a ghost tour. It took over two hours standing in the halls beside rooms and then to the morgue that was full of hotel supplies, etc. Really took away the "haunted feeling". The hallways were extremely hot and very uncomfortable. We went in September--cannot imagine what it would be like in the summer.
 
 
 
 
 
worst tour ever !!!AVOID AT ALL COSTS
By babs, 07/28/07
this is not a tour , you simply stand in this hotel corridor for upto two hours listening to the ramblings of disjointed stories, avoid at all costs!!!!! very rude guides , some people will be told they have captured ORBS of light on the camera, if you look closely these are mostly reflections on the multiple lenses inside digital cameras, we saw many orbs on the photos we took in town in daylight too.

Donate to charity and get a tax deduction
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/25/07
Four of us took this tour and were all extremely disappointed. A tour for which folks paid $17.50 each is not the place for a "probie" tour guide to do a dress rehearsal. She referred to a script throughout, then would stop and ask her "mentor" what she had forgotten. The tour took well over two hours and consisted of disjointed ghost stories told in various hallways in front of various room doors. Last and least was a trip to the "morgue" where she demonstrated how the door was blocked by something each time she tried to open it. Turned out to be dragging on the PVC sewage pipe on the floor just inside the room. Two of us just gave up and left. What a rip off!!
 
 
 
 
 
So Much Potential...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/20/06
This tour had SO MUCH potential to be creepy and interesting and engaging, but it was a complete dud. I went through the tour of the Crescent Hotel and the stories were great but the atmosphere was ridiculous! It's really hard to get in to a ghost story when you're standing beside industrial-sized washing machines, looking at maintenance supplies and last year's Christmas decorations!

Cresent Ghost Tour a Must Do
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/18/06
My wife and I vistit Eureka Springs several times a year. We have been on five ghost tours of the Cresent and enjoy it every time. The history of the Cresent is presented along with stories of former and "present" residence. The tour is worth the money for the history lesson alone. I recommend this tour to open minded people. The tour usually leans toward spiritually liberal minds. I can hardly wait to return to Eureka Springs and go on another ghost tour.

A fun way to spend an evening
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/17/06
I've been visiting the Crescent Hotel since I was a little girl, and always heard rumors of the hauntings. When they opened the ghost tour, I was anxious to go, and it did not dissappoint! Be sure to go in with an open mind, as the tour guides are not show people and truly believe what they tell you. The history and good stories that are told as you tour the hotel are definately worth the price even you don't believe in the spooks! The basement is an especailly scary element of the tour...but I won't spoil the surprise.
