Night falls and downtown Flagstaff changes tone: neon from Route 66 signs throws sharp rectangles across historic brick, the wind off the Colorado Plateau pushes a cold clarity through the streets, and the old Santa Fe rail depot seems to hold its breath. On the Hell's Highway Adults-Only Nighttime Walking Ghost Tour, guides lead small groups by lamplight into the city's darker chapters — from the Hotel Monte Vista's creaking hallways to the Orpheum's backstage whispers.
