Gaslamp Museum at the Davis-Horton House

Rumors of ghost sightings swirl at the Gaslamp Museum at the Davis-Horton House (gaslampmuseum.org; admission $8). This house, a prefab affair brought from Maine in 1850, contains a small museum with 19th-century furnishings, plus historic newspaper clippings in the basement. From here, the Gaslamp Quarter Historical Foundation leads a weekly, 90-minute walking tour of the neighborhood on Thursdays at 1pm ($25 per person), which includes admission to the house.
