Hunt for Ghosts in Jerome's Most Haunted Spots

You'll spend two hours moving through Jerome's three most documented haunted locations — Haskins House, Old Jerome High School Auditorium, and the cemetery — with an EMF reader in your hand and a Spirit Box cycling through frequencies. The guide handles the historical context and the equipment; you handle the interpretation. Small groups keep it intimate, and optional add-ons like thermal cameras let you dig deeper if the experience hooks you.

The Experience

Our guide met us outside the visitor center in Jerome, a mining town perched on a hillside just outside Sedona, and handed over an EMF reader before we even started walking. She'd worked with the Jerome Historical Society's archives manager and knew the stories — not the tourist version, but the actual records. Murder, suicide, the kind of weight that settles into old buildings. We were going to two hours through three locations: Haskins House, the Old Jerome High School Auditorium, and the cemetery. The Spirit Box came out once we got moving, a device that cycles through radio frequencies and supposedly lets spirits communicate through the static. It sounds ridiculous until you're standing in a dark hallway and something answers.

The Haskins House came first. It's a Victorian structure that's been empty for decades, and the moment we stepped inside, the EMF reader started picking up electromagnetic fluctuations — whether that was old wiring or something else, the guide didn't claim to know. She just told us what happened there: the history, the names, the documented deaths. The Old Jerome High School Auditorium was next, and that's where the Spirit Box got active. We stood in the rows of old seats while the device cycled through AM and FM, and there were moments — pauses in the static, what sounded like words — that made the hair on your neck stand up. The guide didn't push interpretation; she let us listen and decide. By the time we reached the cemetery, you could feel the difference between skepticism and genuine curiosity in the group.

The whole thing is two hours, which is long enough to feel immersive but short enough that you're not exhausted by the time you leave. If you want to go deeper, you can add on an SLS Camera or Thermal Image Reader, but the base package gives you the core equipment and the knowledge. The guide's credibility comes from the Jerome Historical Society's backing — they've vetted the information, and it shows. You're not getting ghost stories; you're getting history with the tools to investigate it yourself.
