What you can expect

Embark on a twilight exploration of Memphis' murderous, scandalous, fascinating past, complete with serial killers, mobsters, vengeful lovers, and compelling unsolved cases on a bus tour.

Sit back and listen to your local guide's stories as they take you to the scene of some of the city's most notorious crimes. See where a serial killer caused terror over a summer. Pass by Beale Street's deadliest saloon. Hear about stories of Georgia Tann, the notorious baby thief.

Try not to let chills go down your spine as you learn about Memphis' coldest case or about the 'Black Widow' of Vance Avenue, Alma Theede's chilling story. Continue on to hear about the largest jail break in Shelby County history, and more.

Return to your starting point filled with a new angle on Memphis, one of its darker sides.
