History:
Halloween! What sights and sounds fill your mind when you hear that word? The October holiday, long a children’s favorite, is Chuck Goves’ too!
So, in the autumn of 1999 when president and owner Chuck Gove was looking for an adult venue to celebrate his favorite holiday he scoured the Plain Dealer’s Friday Magazine and realized that only commercial haunted houses were available. Many geared for teenagers and young adults. Cleveland was in need of a tour company to take you to an actual haunted location, to hear its history and its stories, ghost stories of course! So out of his personal love and vision Haunted Cleveland Ghost Tours™ was born.
