Boo 812 is here to connect you to the paranormal world.
We lead haunted tours, host Paranormal 101 courses, and host custom events based in real academic research and haunted history for your family, friends, and colleagues!
Approximately 70% of Americans believe in some sort of paranormal activity.
Boo812 is an initiative started by 3 veteran academically based paranormal researchers with over 25 years of combined years of research in the paranormal field. Boo812 strives to empower you to do your own investigations, experimentation, and historical research surrounding the experiences in the big world of woo through classes, events, and conversations between Boo812 members and the public experiencing the phenomenon.
​
Boo812 also occasionally does investigations of residential and private locations depending on the situations presented to us. We have several investigations planned for 2025, and will be hosting historical tours in partnership with other organizations around the 812 and 502! Check out our tours page for when you can catch Courtney at IU Southeast, Katie Jo at University of Lousiville, or the whole Boo Crew in Downtown Jeffersonville this Fall!
​
Experiencing some activity at your home? Want to know the history? Shoot us a message, and we'd love to dig in with you!
​
We encourage you to share your woo with us! Please reach out to us via Instagram, Facebook, or Tik Tok to tell us what's happened to or around you!

Haunted Tours of Jeffersonville

Something spooky this way comes! A new project is in the works in partnership between Boo812 and SoIN Tourism! Keep an eye out for more updates as we approach October!
We are SO excited to announce that we will be partnering with Southern Indiana Tourism to bring haunted history to you at your convenience! We are currently working on a top secret project that will make your downtown experience more exciting, creepy, and give you the history to our beloved Jeffersonville city.
In it for the thrill? We would love to be your tour guides too! For us, every season is spooky season. History was never limited to just Fall, and creepy activity isn't limited to just the hours when it's dark outside!
If you are looking to do a haunted history tour led by the Boo812 team for your family, friends, business, or guests, we'd love to invite you to take a tour with us! For these, please just send us a message via the contact form on this page, and we can collaborate on a time to meet and pricing. While we're flexible, Boo812 is a small nonprofit and all of us do have day jobs to schedule around. We are a small team of 3, so your message will end up in the hands of Katie Jo, Kristen, or Courtney! ​
