The Terrell Paranormal Investigation & Ghost Hunting Experience
Curiosity Requires Courage (And We Provide Both)
Ever watched a paranormal show and thought, "I want to try that"?
This is how you do it...
You Become the Paranormal Investigator
Hands-On: You are the investigator and you are able to participate as much or little as you like. Our experienced staff will guide you through each session and manage the more complicated equipment.
Immersive & Interactive: We have designed this experience to use techniques and tools that provide 'instant feedback' and does not require review.
Second Chance to Listen: We will post the audio of the sessions online. We HIGHLY recommend you listen again with a good pair of headphones. You may be shocked by what you missed the first time.
Exclusive: Small group sizes (Max 6) means your experience will be your own and the experiences of others you will still get to enjoy.
Extended Duration: A 3-hour deep dive into the paranormal where you have your best chances of making communication with the other side.
Create Your Own Ghost Story
- This is the full immersive experience. You will participate in the same kind of experiments that are often seen on television or YouTube.
-
- You'll hear the paranormal tales connected to those we believe might be present at the site. This will shape the questions you ask and how you ask them, enhancing the chances of receiving a real-time response.
-

-
- This is YOUR experience. We simply provide the tools, the training, and the access—you provide the bravery.

What Our Guests Say...
Capture the Paranormal Contest

Do you see a strange figure in this photograph?
2026 Photo and Video Contest!
Details below. Reach out with questions. Contest will launch December 1st for all 2026 photo and video submissions.
Take photos during your tour.
Tag @HistoricTerrellGhostWalks & use #TerrellGhosts.
The Prize: Every December we post the photos and videos shared by our guests that year. We let our followers do the voting.
We award 2 prizes for the best photos.
We award 1 prize for the best video.
None of the submissions have to be paranormal to win. We take all kinds of cool Terrell photos on the tours.
Rules and prizes are announced prior to the contest.
The Rule of Three: Don’t just take one photo. Take three in rapid succession. If an anomaly moves or changes shape between frames, it’s more likely to be paranormal.
Watch Your Breath: In cold weather, hold your breath while taking the shot to avoid capturing your own condensation (which looks like "ectoplasm").
No Flash is Best: Flash reflects off dust and bugs (creating "orbs"). Try using "Night Mode" or a low ISO setting to capture natural shadows.
Live Photos: If you have an iPhone, turn on "Live Photos." You might catch a shadow figure moving just before or after the shutter clicked.
