Frequently Asked Questions

“Asheville Terrors” sounds unsettling. Is your tour appropriate for all students?

Don’t let the chilling name fool you. Our tour is appropriate for students of all ages, grade levels, and backgrounds. We can accommodate K-12 students and college groups alike.

How can a ghost tour also be good for early grades?

We are well aware of the potentially frightening nature of our tour, and we can adjust what stories we tell (and in what detail) for groups of smaller children, and these changes will be reflected by our professional guides.

We want your students to enjoy our tour as much as we enjoy it, not be so scared that they can’t focus.

What’s the educational value of this tour?

Unlike the stereotypical ghost tour, our tour isn’t all scare with no substance.

We cover, in detail, the historical background of every location we visit. We intensively research every single site and constantly update our tours according to new information that emerges. We strive to balance educational content with entertainment—we don’t tell merely tall tales, but fact-based accounts.

During our tours, our guides provide the right balance between learning and excitement. They don’t lecture, nor do they overact.

At Asheville Terrors, we share your passion for your students’ education. We want your students to leave our tour having had a great, memorable time, and having learned more about our nation’s history, Presidents, and other pivotal figures in the process.

What about the actual stories? Is there any disturbing subject matter?

Please rest assured, our tour does not cover any material more sensitive, upsetting, or disturbing in nature than what’s already discussed in most history textbooks. We believe the history of the sites we visit is dramatic enough as it is, and we do not go to any great lengths to sensationalize it.

Simply tell us when you want to take the tour, how many students are in your group, and any other details you’d like for us to know, and we’ll make it happen.

  • We’ll schedule your tour for what day works best for your class.
  • We only request that you schedule a month in advance, so we can create the best experience possible.
  • We’ll craft an experience best suited for your students, your goals, and your lesson plans.
  • Interested? Fill out our form above. We look forward to showing you and your students a different side of Asheville!
