What To Expect

Stories of murder and mayhem spice up our ghost tours.  This lantern-led, 2-hour long, all-outdoor walk has 14 stories told by a guide with a microphone.  Historical photographs bring the people and places to life.  Our stories don't skim the surface. We delve into the history behind the events and through deep research correct some of the mistakes told in the past.  At tours end you receive a list of our sources for your own sleuthing.  We leave the cheese and costumes to the other tours and suggest you leave your little ones with a sitter as the subject matter may be too graphic for those under the age of 10. Highlights include: 

The Real Boston Strangler

Haunted Houses

Death and the Draft Riots

Ye Waverly Inn

Ghosts of the Triangle Fire
