Haunted Statehouse Tours
COLUMBUS, OH – A limited number of tickets are still available for the 2022 Haunted Statehouse Tours at the Ohio Statehouse. These special tours of the Capitol building will take place over two Friday and two Saturday evenings: Oct. 14-15 and 21-22. Each night, five tours will start every half hour at 7, 7:30, 8, 8:30 and 9 p.m.

Tickets must be preordered through the Statehouse Museum Shop in one of three ways:
- online at statehouseshop.com;
- by calling 614-728-9234; or
- by visiting the Statehouse Museum Shop on the ground floor of the Ohio Statehouse.

Prices are $13 for adults and $7 for students ages 17 and under, plus a processing fee of $2.50 per order. The tour is spooky and not recommended for children under the age of 12. Tickets are limited to 35 per tour; please note that several tours have already sold out.

This year’s Haunted Statehouse Tours will feature recorded evidence of paranormal activity inside the Capitol building, a unique route through its darkened hallways and dimly lit limestone walls, and a stop inside the Governor’s Office! Conductors will lead visitors by lantern as they combine fact and legend to narrate the history of the Ohio Statehouse.

The Statehouse Museum Shop will also feature a sale on Halloween merchandise in October. Starting Oct. 17, visit the Shop before your tour for 40% off Halloween merchandise. The sale applies to in-stock items only and does not include tour tickets.
