A MARK TWAIN DAYS SPECIAL EVENT 

CARSON CITY’S GHOST WALK – IN MARK TWAIN SHOES
  APRIL 22 & 23, 2023

SATURDAY & SUNDAY    10:30 AM - NOON 

One Tour Each Day


Though a spirit led walking tour of Carson City’s historical and haunted West side, this special event as part of Carson City’s Mark Twain Days takes a walking tour to the spots Mark Twain would have traversed in Carson City, 1863.


TICKETS $25 PER PERSON

THIS IS A WALKING TOUR


Carson City’s intriguing and spirited history is explored and theatrically re-lived in our special Carson City Ghost Walk, focusing on the path Mark Twain would have walked when he resided in Carson City, with his brother Orion in 1863.  Guided Tours depart from the corner of Third and Curry Streets starting at 10:30 AM - NOON.   Each tour lasts approximately ninety minutes.  The Carson City Ghost Walk is a delightfully entertaining and enjoyable way to experience Carson City’s Victorian Era and diverse history.  Hear about lingering spirits of the past centuries, haunted and paranormal stories and meet Mark Twain himself, as portrayed by the incredible McAvoy Layne.  


Our 90-minute Tour features characters from Carson City’s past.  Part haunted history and part theatricality,  costumes are welcome on the tour.  These are spirit lead, guided walking tours of the downtown district and  west side historic homes and businesses. The tours leave rain or shine.  Please arrive at least 10 minutes before the walk begins.  There are many other events to participate in for Mark Twain Days:  https://visitcarsoncity.com

  • The Orion Clemens Home - Built in 1863 by Orion Clemens, who was the first and only secretary of the Nevada Territory.  He came west with his brother Samuel Clemens, who became a fledgling newspaperman, whose pen name “Mark Twain” was really “born” in the upper bedroom of this home.
