Each stop reveals another layer of mystery, offering a glimpse into the spirits and stories that linger beneath the surface.
When an easterly wind sweeps through, you may even hear the unsettling groans of the town’s resident ghost drifting across the night.

Jennifer

Highly recommend an evening with Andrew, last night we joined him on his Hair Raiser Tour around Port Chalmers. Andrew is a fantastic story teller who weaves the past, present day and family stories. We got to learn so much more about Port Chalmers and some of its 'charming characters'!
Brianna

I have been on a few of Andrew's tours in the last couple of years and they have always been the perfect mix of fascinating, creepy and surreal. Andrew is a wonderful guide, is very informative and always gives everyone a good laugh!! I am so excited for our next tour in a couple of weeks time 🧡🧡🧡🧡
Mark

Andrew our guide for the evening was exceptional and highly entertaining. Even though he has done the tour many times before, he made the experience enjoyable and unique, making us feel special. The stories and tales were fascinating and at times very creepy, but at the same time informative on the history of folks from Dunedin. We have done ghost tours before elsewhere in the world, but this one is slightly different and definitely worth doing.
Joanne

Went on the Shiver Street tour. Best ghost tour yet!!!! Andrew, our host was brilliant. Not only knowledgeable with Dunedin’s history and folklore but a great storyteller. Had us captivated throughout the two hour tour. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you so much Andrew. Would highly recommend Hairraiser tours
Josie

My partner and I went on the Northern Cemetery tour and had an absolutely incredible experience. Andrew led a phenomenal tour—his captivating story telling, combined with a warm and welcoming presence, made the whole evening unforgettable. The tour was extremely well-organised, with a perfectly sized group: small enough to feel involved, but big enough that we never felt alone. We especially loved the perfect blend of education, humour, and ghostly tales. Highly recommend! Thanks for a fantastic tour Andrew!
