About
The idea for Haunted Medina Ghost Tours started when Brandon Massullo wrote a book about the town's ghostly history & published it in 2022...
Then, in 2023, spooky bookstore Black Cat Books & Oddities opened in town. The owners and Brandon connected over their shared interests. In fact, Brandon's books HAUNTED MEDINA COUNTY and THE GHOST STUDIES continue to be some of the top sellers year after year at Black Cat since opening!
Since 2023, Brandon & Black Cat talked about bringing ghost tours to Medina. But it had to be done right.
That's when Cellar Stage entered the scene.
And the ultimate collab was born: Brandon turns his research into a walking tour concept, Cellar Stage brings in the actors as tour guides, and Black Cat hosts and promotes!
Our Story
Our Tours
We are storytellers.
Little towns are full of spirits and lore. It's up to the community to keep those stories alive.
And our story begins long before paved streets, porch lights, and tidy lawns. In 1803, Ohio had just become a state. And the land that would become Medina County was dense, wild, and unforgiving.
The places you'll visit have been called haunted for a reason. Buildings, rooms, and spaces that somehow remember things.
Pain. Love. Violence. Loss.
These are places where the air feels heavier. Where shadows stretch just a little longer than they should. Where time seems… off.
Welcome to Medina. Where spirits soar and history comes to life.
Meet Your Hosts
