Itinerary
Discover the Tlingit legend of Raven and Eagle, symbols of creation and protection. Locals still tell of trickster ravens mimicking voices, blurring the line between folklore and the paranormal.
Hear the stories of Juneau’s most famous saloon, once a rowdy frontier tent and now a historic landmark filled with artifacts. Guests say the ghost of beloved piano player Professor Phineas Poon still lingers, playing pranks from beyond the grave.
This pub honors the adventurous Mary Joyce, who mushed 1,000 miles to Fairbanks in the 1930s and became a Juneau legend. Her spirit lives on here not just in ghostly footsteps, but in the fearless legacy she left behind.
Built in 1913, this is Juneau’s oldest and most haunted hotel. Guests report ghostly apparitions... most famously “Alice,” a woman said to wander the halls after a tragic end.
Look up to Mt. Juneau, where dreamers once envisioned a grand tramway to the summit. Local lore warns of a shapeshifting otter-man spirit said to lure travelers away.
Hear about over 800 dolls from around the world, this collection is fascinating, eerie, and unforgettable. Some believe the dolls carry the energy of their past owners... and maybe even wandering spirits.
This lively saloon hides ghostly tales from staff and visitors, including moving objects and phantom music. One worker even described slamming into an invisible “wall,” a chilling encounter reminiscent of Japanese folklore.
Housed in the historic Valentine Building, this pharmacy once served as a makeshift morgue after the tragic 1918 Princess Sophia sinking. Staff still report cold spots, ghostly touches, and apparitions in its basement.
This charming gallery is said to be home to Hector, the ghost of a friendly construction worker. Staff believe he helps out—holding doors, finding lost items, and keeping the atmosphere welcoming.
Once a bakery and family home, this boutique inn carries whispers of its past. Guests and staff often report footsteps, moving objects, and even sightings of the original baker still at work.
Alaska’s stately capitol holds both art and mystery. Some say the ghost of a former legislator still roams the halls at night, long after debates have ended.
This museum blends quirky folklore with serious history, including the tale of Alaska’s “ice worms.” Locals also whisper about Bigfoot sightings nearby, keeping the line between legend and reality blurry.

About Juneau
Juneau is Alaska's capital, a small harbour city beneath steep forested mountains, reachable only by air or sea and close to glaciers.
Juneau sits on the Gastineau Channel in the Alaska Panhandle, squeezed between the water and the steep slopes of Mount Juneau and Mount Roberts, with the Juneau Icefield behind. No road connects it to the rest of North America. The city grew after gold was found in 1880, and the Alaska State Capitol, a columned building of the 1930s, the octagonal Russian Orthodox church of St Nicholas and the old downtown streets recall that past.
Top-ranked sights in Juneau: Mt. Roberts Tramway (Goldbelt Tram), Mendenhall Glacier, Nugget Falls.
