Lemp Haunted Neighborhood & Brewery Ghost Tour

Step Into the Shadows of America’s Most Haunted Neighborhood with the SLBS!

Join us on Friday September 25, 2026, for a chilling journey through the same historic neighborhood that hosts the St. Louis Bourbon Festival each year.

Behind the brick walls and beneath the streets of the old Lemp Brewery lies a darker story—one filled with tragedy, restless spirits, true crime and secrets that refuse to stay buried.

After this night, you may never look at the Lemp Brewery or its surrounding neighborhood the same way again.

Begin the Evening at Bluewood Brewing

6:30–7:30 p.m.
Bluewood Brewing
1821 Cherokee Street
St. Louis, MO 63118

Meet your fellow guests on the outdoor patio and enjoy a complimentary pre-tour beer or drink from James and Drew before venturing into the shadows.

Lemp Neighborhood & Brewery Ghost Tour

7:30–9:30 p.m.
Presented by the St. Louis Paranormal Research Society

Your tour begins directly across the street from Bluewood Brewing at:

1820 Cherokee Street
St. Louis, MO 63118

Join Dr. Mark Farley, an experienced paranormal investigator, for a guided walk through what has become known as “America’s Most Haunted Neighborhood.”

This is no ordinary ghost tour. It is an unsettling mixture of paranormal activity, creepy St. Louis history and true crime—including stories rarely shared outside these dark streets and abandoned spaces.

What Awaits You

During this haunting two-hour experience, you will:

• Discover the tragic and reportedly haunted history of the cursed Lemp family.
• Hear the forgotten story of one of the world’s most infamous serial killers—and his disturbing connection to St. Louis.
• Enter the historic Lemp Brewery Bottle Works.
• Descend into two of the brewery’s most haunted basements.
• Learn about the horrific events said to have occurred within these dark, secluded spaces.

Approximately 50% of the tour takes place outside and 50% takes place inside the Lemp Brewery Bottle Works.

The buildings are old. The basements are dark. The history is real.

Are you brave enough to enter?
