The extremely wealthy eccentric Betty Brown’s spirit is forever roaming the elegant halls of Ashton Villa. Many have seen Betty wearing a turquoise dress and carrying a fan during lavish event held at the mansion. Even death can’t keep Betty from being the life of the party…and scare the guests half to death.
One of over 200 historical markers on the island, this is the former residence of Olga Samaroff who is known to still haunt the home until this day.

Only one person ever liked living at the Normandy Inn and that was the man who brought Satanism to the island. One week after construction, a young boy threw himself out of the window… AND LIVED. When asked why he did such a thing, he replied, “Something evil was going to kill me”. Now The Normandy Inn has become a pilgrimage site for those who practice voodoo, black magic, Satanism and witch craft. Many sacrificial rituals have taken place here including… A HUMAN! To this day, it is still used as a portal the hell.
Many guests to this hotel have told stories of a lonely lady wandering the halls, some even having full conversations with her. But in the morning, realizing that she never existing at all!

It was a good experience. It felt like some of the stories were edited due to children being present. I don’t have a problem with children on the tour but I feel like parents are agreeing to the scary experience by bringing them.

We do offer a family-friendly experience on many of our tours, but we also have tours geared toward older audiences. We hope you'll join us again to experience another side of Galveston's haunted history!
