You start at Lake Eola’s Chinese Pagoda as dusk thins the sky and the park’s fountain throws light across the water; the city’s streets feel like a map of stories, each plaza and building nudging you toward the next clue.
This self-guided urban ghost hunt stitches modern game design to Orlando’s tangible past — from the Orlando History Museum’s exhibits to the brick facades of Church Street Station and the Kress Building. The game frames a fictional gatekeeper between the living and the dead, layering invented narrative over real sites: Wall Street Plaza’s nightlife, the Angebilt Hotel’s 1920s bones, and even the courthouse area linked to the Ted Bundy trial make appearances.
Geology and history press in quietly here: Orlando rests atop porous limestone and a high water table, which shaped early settlement patterns and created Lake Eola as a civic center. Culture is visible in neon signs and memorial markers — the city’s name itself is a small mystery you'll encounter on the route.
Practically, the experience is a 45–75 minute mobile-driven walking loop through downtown. Directions and puzzles arrive on your phone; you’ll stop to read plaques, solve riddles, and compare what you see to the story on screen. Expect paved sidewalks, crosswalks, and some short blocks of cobblestone around historic buildings.
Bring a charged phone, headphones, and comfortable shoes. Start late afternoon for cooler light and to see both daylight details and the city after dark. The route is flexible — play alone, as a duo, or in a small group — and moves at your pace, so take a break at Lake Eola or a coffee shop if a clue needs time to settle.
