Haunted Mansions and Bar Stops in St. Louis's Lafayette Square
A two-hour, 21-and-up night walk that opens outside a house the listing ties to the 1896 tornado and stops at local bars.
The walk starts at 8:00 PM on the public sidewalk in front of the Seib House, 2323 Lafayette Ave, and runs about two hours through Lafayette Square, which the listing describes as once one of the most fashionable neighborhoods in St. Louis. Its stories run from the 1896 St. Louis tornado to a psychic medium who held Spiritualist services inside a mansion, a vanishing figure near the Lafayette Park bridge, haunted private homes and the city's long relationship with saloons and Prohibition.
It is a ghost walk and a pub crawl at once, and every drink is bought on your own tab. The listing describes stops at local bars where guests may purchase drinks, and everyone on the walk must be 21 or older.

St. Louis Haunted Pub Crawl Ghost Stories and DrinksA two-hour guided ghost walk and pub crawl through Lafayette Square for ages 21 and up, starting at 8:00 PM outside the Seib House.www.viator.comThe First Stop Is the Meeting Point
The opening stop is the house you meet in front of. The listing calls the Nasse-Seib House one of Lafayette Square's strangest and most storied homes, and ties it to the devastating 1896 St. Louis tornado, to local legends of a ghostly child in the garden, and to the later history of Carrie Seib, a Spiritualist who reportedly held services inside the mansion.
The second stop takes in the square itself. The listing talks about the wealth, disaster and preservation that shaped it, including the damage the 1896 tornado left behind. The listing gives each of its four stops 20 minutes, 80 of the 120 in all.
Benton Place, Then Prohibition
The third stop is the Lehmann House, on what the listing calls one of Lafayette Square's most private-feeling streets. The stories told there are reports of disembodied voices, unexplained banging, shadowy figures and the feeling of being watched, in a home the listing says has survived wealth, decline, restoration and more than a century of St. Louis history.
The fourth stop turns to drink. The listing frames it around Prohibition changing St. Louis from a drinking city into a more secretive one, with hidden bottles, back rooms, speakeasy culture and bootlegging. Neither the listing nor the operator's page names the bars on the route.
Valid ID, and Drinks on Your Own Tab
Everyone has to be 21 or older and carry a valid ID; the operator's page says ID is required to get into the bars. The listing marks the walk not recommended for pregnant travelers, and the operator's content notes list alcohol consumption and death and mortality.
Drinks are not included, and gratuities are extra. Pets stay home, while service animals are welcome. The operator recommends rideshare over driving on a night of drinking.
