Soulard’s First Annual Soulard Ghost Tour, titled ‘Spirits of Soulard,’ will be be held on Saturday, September 27. Throughout Soulard we have many accounts of mysterious encounters with spirits and unexplained phenomena. Therefore, our first tour is named 'Spirits of Soulard.'

With so many 19th-century homes, we find that virtually every Soulard address has been the site of a death. These deaths were most often due to illness or old age. Occasionally, the deaths were due to murder or suicide. The Historical Committee has been matching the reports of unexplained phenomena with actual historical records.  You will not want to miss this tour!

TICKETS: Tickets for the upcoming ‘Spirits of Soulard’ will be offered at $40. These tickets will go on sale in mid-August at www.soulard.org .

THE TOUR: This tour will be a walking tour, and during the 2-hour walk guests will travel a distance of 10 blocks. The tour will concentrate on homes at the southern end of Soulard. Tour groups will depart the Tour Center (Antagonist Cafe, 2727 S 12th Street) every 20 minutes, beginning at 5:00 pm on Saturday, September 27. The tour is designed for adults, not small children.
