Experience Charleston’s haunted history like never before with our Ghost Tour featuring 10 original, spine-tingling stories. We’re proud to be the only tour in Charleston that offers these unique tales, all backed by thorough research and a passion for the paranormal.
What sets us apart? We use verification equipment during the tour to detect ghostly presence, giving you a real chance to see or even photograph spirits. Many guests have captured actual images of ghosts—no “orbs” here—just genuine paranormal evidence. If you’re lucky enough to catch a ghost on camera and we post it, we’ll send you a Ghost Tour T-Shirt as a keepsake.
Our tours are intimate, limited to just 15 participants, ensuring a more personal and immersive experience. Join us as we explore Charleston’s dark side, uncovering stories from the past that will send shivers down your spine—unless you’re too scared to continue!
Note: The tour concludes a few blocks from the starting point, but we’ll walk you back to where you began. Come prepared for a night of ghostly encounters and eerie tales that you won’t forget.
