All Tours at 10 PM!

Take a tour of the theatre and experience a side of the Egyptian Theatre that most never see. You will be filled in on paranormal activity and ghost sightings that have taken place. You will be split up into groups to investigate the ghosts and sightings to see if you can find your own evidence and possibly experience paranormal events!
Your tour and investigation into the unknown will be guided by the Illinois Ghost Hunters, a very well known and highly respected paranormal investigation team with many years of experience.

The Haunted Overnight Tours and Investigations of the historic Egyptian Theatre are hosted by the Illinois Ghost Hunters. This organization was founded by Willy Adkins on February 16, 2006. The group has since grown to be a nationally recognized and respected force in the field of paranormal investigation. Their goal as a group is to maintain a strong standing, conduct their research effectively, educate others with their knowledge of the paranormal, and aide their clients to comfort in their own homes and places of business.
