Haunted Boston Ghost Tours, LLC ist die älteste Geisterwanderung in Boston. Inhaberin Hillary Kidd gründete das Unternehmen 2005 als einzige Reiseleiterin und das Unternehmen wuchs schnell auf über 8 Reiseleiter. Das Konzept hinter den Geistertouren besteht darin, den Gästen durch gutes, altmodisches Geschichtenerzählen die „dunklere Seite der Geschichte Bostons“ zu erzählen. Die Reiseleiter kleiden sich nicht in Kostüme, verwenden keine falschen Akzente und verlassen sich auch nicht auf theatralische Darbietungen, um die Gäste zu unterhalten. „Theatralik ist nicht nötig, wenn Ihre Geschichten gut sind, und wir erzählen die gesamte Bandbreite gruseliger Geschichten – Geistergeschichten, Spukorte, Mord, Makabres, in Menschenhaut gebundene Bücher; wie ich gerne sage, erzählen wir die ‚andere Seite‘ ' der Geschichte Bostons. Hillary Kidd, Inhaberin von Haunted Boston Ghost Tours

Darren was a good speaker and knew his material very well. The lantern he carried was a good touch. Great stories about the area and what goes bump in the night. I would recommend
Darren is always excellent, and has been carrying that lantern for over a decade! Thank you for joining us for some dark adventures in Boston!
The haunted Boston ghost tour features very little discussion of ghosts or haunting. The first stop was the entrance of a closed cemetery we didn’t tour. The second stop featured no discussion of ghosts or haunting. The third was a bandstand donated by the family of a murder victim- again no discussion of ghosts or haunting. The sites were lame and the guide added little to any story that may have been there. We peeled off after an hour in lieu of hearing more.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry the tour was not what you were looking for, however we do wish to clarify a few points for anyone reading this review. Haunted Boston Ghost Tours is, without question, a ghost tour. However, we take a very different approach from tours that simply sensationalize every location or present fictional stories as fact. Our tours are grounded in Boston’s actual history, documented events, and firsthand accounts of hauntings. Not every location has a ghost standing in the doorway waiting to be introduced, and we are certainly not going to invent paranormal activity simply to make a story more dramatic. The historical circumstances surrounding a location are often an important part of understanding why it has developed a reputation for being haunted. We respect your feedback, and hope you find the tour more suited to you.
Darren was our tour guide and was very entertaining. He kept my very skeptical husband interested and I enjoyed it very much. Lots of things I would never have learned about without the tour.
We love it when the skeptics come out!! We will make sure to pass along your compliments to Darren!
Really enjoyed this tour. Learned a lot about Boston Commons history and ghosts that still appear to people. Julie was an excellent guide and a great storyteller
Julie is one of the best! Thank you for venturing out with us!!
It was a truly enjoyable day! All of the drivers we had were fabulous! I know we had Mrs. Beantown, Lurch, Music and one other driver that started with an S! They were all extremely knowledgeable and funny! Definitely will be taking this again when we revisit Boston!
Hi Amber! This is definitely not us, but I we are glad you and Lurch had a great time!!
Darren was very knowledgeable to greet stories and had a wicked sense of humor.
Darren is always wicked awesome! Thank you for joining us and the great review!!
I had a fantastic experience on the Haunted Boston Ghost Tour! The tour was both entertaining and packed with fascinating information, stories, and history. Zach was an excellent guide — engaging, knowledgeable, and very respectful. He did an amazing job bringing the stories to life and keeping everyone interested throughout the tour. I really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Boston and looking for something fun, spooky, and informative. 👻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Zach is not only a great guide, but one of our favorite people! We sincerely appreciate you joining us on our dark adventures!!
I liked the tour. I would personally appreciated more ghost stories. It was more about the history of locations, they didn’t go into much info on the haunts. He would just tell us the history asks say that people say it’s haunted without giving details on the haunts.
We would like to hear more about your experience, so if you could reach out to us at admin@hauntedboston.com we would appreciate it. Thank you for joining us!
Not as described; the first half of the 1.5 hour tour was spent in 3 spots (lots of standing in one place) along the Boston Commons cemetery; from my purview it was an historical narrative rather than a ghost tour; perhaps it was a function this particular guide
We apologize that our tour did not meet your expectations. Unfortunately we cannot locate you in our system, so if you could reach out to us at admin@hauntedboston.com with more details about your experience we would appreciate it.
If you are looking for extreme paranormal stories, this is not that tour. But if you are looking for some ghost stories and a fun way to learn about the history of the area - this one is great. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and able to answer questions. He kept it interactive. I would go on another tour with this guide again.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled that you enjoyed the tour and especially appreciated your guide’s knowledge and interactive storytelling. You’ve actually captured what we strive to do at Haunted Boston Ghost Tours. We are absolutely a ghost tour—but one grounded in facts, true history, and documented firsthand accounts. We’re not interested in simply inventing the most extreme paranormal story possible for shock value. We believe the truth behind Boston’s history is fascinating, and the real stories are even creepier than fiction! Thank you for choosing Haunted Boston Ghost Tours, and we hope to see you again on another dark adventure!
