Overview

You wake up on Hollywood Boulevard as a ghost with no memory. All you have is a heart-shaped locket with a woman's picture inside, and a trail of haunted landmarks pulling you toward the truth.

Follow 12 stops along the Walk of Fame into Hollywood's darkest chapters. Decode ciphers at the Pantages Theatre, confront a dragon at Grauman's, chase a mummy past the Roosevelt Hotel, and uncover a love story ending at a florist that still delivers roses to the dead.

Download the Questo app, activate your quest with the booking code, and start at the Pantages Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard. No guide, no schedule, explore at your own pace.

Every stop hides a real ghost story: Hughes' phantom office, Monroe's reflection trapped in a hotel mirror, the actress who jumped from the Hollywood Sign, and unsolved murders at Grauman's.
Best played after dark. Perfect for couples or friends seeking Hollywood's haunted side. About 2 hours, 12 stops along the boulevard.

What's Included

  • Freedom to pause anytime, grab dinner, take photos, explore
  • Available 7 days a week, start whenever suits you (best after dark)
  • Play as a team (up to 3 per device) or solo
  • Live tour guide (this is self-guided via the app)
