Haunted stories hit closer when they’re told street by street. This Haunted Tour in Mount Healthy from Cincinnati is a 90-minute, English-language walk with an experienced guide (Kevin’s the one many people rave about), plus plenty of stops tied to locals legends. I like that it’s structured and easy to follow, and I also like how the route mixes spooky houses, cemeteries, and even the story of a ghost train.

One thing to consider: this tour runs on good weather, and you’ll be doing several short stretches on foot with a moderate fitness level in mind.

What makes this tour worth your $32?

• Kevin-style storytelling: friendly, entertaining spooky vibes that feel made for the season leading up to Halloween
• A tight 1.5-hour format: you get multiple sites without the day stretching out
• Stops with free admission tickets: every main location is part of the guided experience, not just a photo stop
• Cemetery + secret society mix: you’ll hear about Civil War soldiers, the Odd Fellowes, and more-than-normal lore
• Small group size: capped at 24 people, so you’re not lost in a crowd
• Mobile ticket in English: straightforward check-in, and the guide keeps things moving

Price and value: $32 buys more than a “walk and talk”

At $32 per person for about 1 hour 30 minutes, this tour lands in a sweet spot for a guided haunted experience. The big value piece is that the main stops come with free admission tickets as part of the tour structure, so you’re not paying extra to enter each location.

You also avoid the usual headache of haunted walks that rely on you finding everything yourself. Here, an experienced guide leads you from place to place in Mount Healthy, with time set aside at each stop. That turns “spooky curiosity” into a real plan.

Where the tour starts: Fibonacci Brewing Company on Compton Rd

You’ll meet at Fibonacci Brewing Company, 1445 Compton Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45231. The meeting point is practical: it’s a clear address you can plug into your maps app, and the tour starts right outside the venue.

This matters because a haunted tour lives or dies on momentum. You don’t want a slow start or a bunch of people guessing where to gather. Starting at a real, identifiable location keeps things orderly, especially since the tour ends back at the same meeting point.

Stop-by-stop: what you’ll actually see (and why it matters)

1) Fibonacci Brewing Company: the jump-off point for the mood

The tour begins here, with a quick handoff from the guide. Even though the admission for this stop is listed as free, the real purpose is getting everyone synced up: your guide’s voice, the tone, and where the story is headed next.

If you’re the type who likes context before you hear scary details, this first stop helps. You’ll get oriented and ready for what comes next on Compton Rd.

2) 1515 Compton Rd and the Glossinger House legend

Next up is 1515 Compton Rd, described as the Glossinger House, one of the oldest and most haunted locations in Mount Healthy. This is a classic “front-row seat” stop: you’ll spend about 10 minutes here hearing what makes the place notorious.

The key value of this stop is that the tour doesn’t treat haunted places like spooky wallpaper. It frames the location as part of a bigger Mount Healthy story, so when you move onward, it feels connected rather than random.

3) Knochelmann Service Experts: Mayors, fates, and lingering ghosts

At Knochelmann Service Experts, you’ll learn the fate of one of Mount Healthy’s mayors and the ghosts said to still haunt the place. Again, plan on about 10 minutes at this stop.

What I like about this kind of stop is that it uses local civic history (the mayor piece) as a hook. If you usually think of ghost tours as only about eerie vibes, this location shifts it toward cause-and-effect storytelling.

4) 7365 Perry St: Hoffner Cemetery and Civil War spirits

Then you’ll head to 7365 Perry St, the Hoffner Cemetery, which is described as the final resting place for Civil War soldiers. This stop is also about 10 minutes.

Cemeteries are where a haunted tour can get more meaningful fast—because you’re not just listening to made-up fear. You’re hearing stories tied to people who actually lived, at least in the sense of historical connection. Even if you don’t buy any ghost claims, this stop tends to feel more grounded than a haunted house.

Practical tip: if you’re wearing shoes you love but regret, this is the moment to reconsider. You’ll want footwear that can handle short walks and standing time.

5) 7522 Hamilton Ave: the Odd Fellowes secret society

At 7522 Hamilton Ave, the tour focuses on the home of a secret society known as the Odd Fellowes. Here, you’ll learn the history of the location and the secret ceremonies held there.

This is one of the more interesting stops for people who don’t only want hauntings. Secret societies scratch a different itch—ritual, rules, hidden membership, and how communities create meaning. Even if you’re only half-in on the paranormal, this stop can land because it’s about how people organized themselves.

6) 7608 Hamilton Ave: the Mt. Healthy ghost train

Next is 7608 Hamilton Ave, the location of the Mt. Healthy Ghost train. The tour gives about 10 minutes at this stop, and the description makes it clear it’s a must-see location.

If you like your ghost stories with a dash of “why would that even be a thing,” this is where you’ll feel it. Ghost train legends often bring movement and danger into the lore, and that usually changes the tone of a tour in a good way.

7) 1546 McMakin Ave: Mt. Healthy Historical Society and a preserved toll road station

At 1546 McMakin Ave, you’ll visit the Mt. Healthy Historical Society and a preserved toll road station. Time here is around 10 minutes.

This stop gives you a real-life anchor. Haunted tours can run on pure narrative, but this one mixes the supernatural with physical remnants of local transportation history. If you like stories that point to something you can still see, this is a smart place to be fully present.

8) 1489 Hill Ave: Mt Pleasant Cemetery and Lydia the resident ghost

Finally, you’ll go to 1489 Hill Ave, Mt Pleasant Cemetery, described as the most haunted place in Mount Healthy. You also hear about Lydia, a resident ghost said to occupy the cemetery.

This last stop runs about 20 minutes, longer than the others, which tells you the guide wants you to linger. It’s a great payoff location—especially if the earlier stops turned up the volume and you’re ready for a more sustained spooky moment.

Guide factor: Kevin’s friendly, entertaining approach

The guide is listed as an experienced guide, and the strongest review highlight is that Kevin is friendly and entertaining with good spooky vibes. That combination matters more than people think. A haunted tour can get either too goofy or too stiff. When the guide keeps it fun and keeps it moving, you actually enjoy the walk even if you’re not a super serious ghost believer.

Also, since the tour runs in English and is capped at 24 people, you should feel like the guide can manage the group and keep the story coherent.

Logistics that matter: walking time, group size, and what to bring

This tour is about 1 hour 30 minutes total, with multiple stops mostly set at 10 minutes each and one longer 20-minute finale. With that structure, you’ll want to plan for some standing and short walking segments between locations.

A few practical notes based on the tour’s stated setup:

• The tour has a moderate physical fitness level requirement
• Service animals are allowed
• It’s near public transportation
• It doesn’t include bottled water and there’s no private transportation

Bring your own water if you get thirsty easily. And if you’re visiting from elsewhere in Cincinnati, map your route ahead of time so you’re not sprinting at the start.

Timing it right: why booking a month ahead can help

This experience is booked on average 33 days in advance. That tells you it’s not a “drop in whenever” activity, even if it looks like a simple neighborhood walk. If you want a specific date—especially around Halloween—locking it in earlier is a smart move.

The tour also needs good weather, so having a little flexibility helps. If conditions are bad, the provider may offer another date or a full refund.

Who should book this Mount Healthy haunted tour?

I think this tour fits best if you want:

• a short, focused haunted experience (not an all-day production)
• story-led stops tied to specific locations in Mount Healthy
• a guide who brings friendly spooky energy
• a mix of creepy houses, cemeteries, and local legends like the Odd Fellowes and the ghost train

It might not be your best match if you want deep quiet contemplation or if you’re hoping for a long, museum-style walkthrough. This is a street-level story tour, timed and paced for walking.

Should you book it? My honest take

Yes, if you’re in Cincinnati and you want a value-priced haunted tour with real stop locations and an experienced guide with clearly strong energy—Kevin’s a plus. The $32 price makes sense here because the main sites are built into the experience with free admission tickets, and the schedule is tight enough that it feels like you got your money’s worth in story time.

I’d hesitate only if weather is shaky, if you strongly dislike neighborhood walking, or if you need more than “about 90 minutes” to feel satisfied. If you’re okay with a guided route and you show up ready for a spooky neighborhood evening, this one is easy to recommend.
