Voted by the Austin Chronicle 2022 Critic's Choice "Best Nightlife Activity." In the year 1885 America’s first serial killer stalked the streets and alleyways of the young, emerging city of Austin. More terrifying than any ghost story, this monster brutally and systematically hacked eight women to death using an ax. For one calendar year, he terrified a city and came to be known as the “midnight assassin”. He was never captured and his identity remains a mystery or does it...?

Will is an extraordinary guide. Love the passion and genuine friendliness. I’d do it again! Also you must try a Doritos locos taco from Taco Bell!

Filled with lots of knowledge and info! There were pictures, and this case is still unsolved. It was pretty interesting. The tour guide was passionate about this topic, and she had so many details memorized. It was wild. I couldn't talk that in depth about anything.

My sweet friend and co-worker were in Austin for a work trip. We decided to take this tour on our last night before we went back home. This was an AMAZING experience!! Our tour guide, Will, was the BEST! I have been on tours like these in other states and this one doesn't even compare!! If you are ever in Austin, you have to go!! You will learn so much about the city of Austin and the history of the murders!! And you have got to request Will!! He was better than any tour guide I have had in other states. His knowledge about this was great!! If I wasn't scheduled for a super early flight the next morning, I would have loved to stay and ask more questions about all this. I am hard of hearing and read lips most of the time. If you are worried about not being able to hear on busy streets, don't be! Will talks at a very good speed and volume. I didn't have a problem at all not being able to hear. If I could rate more stars, I definitely would!! Try it out! You won't be disappointed! Donna (from Alabama) :)

Tyler was very engaging and super knowledgeable on our Murder Walk of Austin. His delivery of facts and the stories retained our interest and led to a lively discussion of the relative theories amongst ourselves after the event.
