Beschrijving

De originele Tarpon Springs spooktocht. Onder leiding van scenarioschrijver en lokale Gids Uitblinker Chapman. Echte geschiedenis. Echte ware misdaad. Geen theater. Deze wandeltocht gaat over het verhaal van maarschalk Ruben Jones — door een voormalige burgemeester beschreven als “de stoerste, gemeenste, dodelijkste man” in Tarpon Springs. Verkozen tot Marshal voor 12 opeenvolgende termijnen. Schoot een man in de rug bij Spring Bayou. Berecht en vrijgesproken. Gevonden met meer dan 80 kogelwonden op jacht. Zaak onopgelost. Zijn gouden badge ligt bij de politie van Tarpon Springs. Gasten maken gebruik van wichelroedes bij het historische Treinstation en een geestendoos tijdens bepaalde momenten. Velen hebben hun eigen naam gehoord. Er is ook Maria – een gedocumenteerde geest die op verzoek reageert op Uitblinkers. Haar verhaal wordt tijdens de tour gedeeld. Geen kostuums, geen acteurs, geen nepuitrusting. De originele Tarpon Springs spooktocht. Lopend sinds 2023. Badge of Excellence op Viator.

Best ghost tour we have experienced

Ace Chapman was an Excellent and amazing tour guide. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We would definitely recommend this to believers of all ages.

Susan, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review. We are thrilled to hear that Ace delivered such a memorable experience on the Tarpon Springs tour. He brings a genuine passion for the history and stories of the area, and it shows. We will absolutely pass along your kind words. If you are ever looking to explore more of the Tampa Bay area's darker history, we have tours running in Safety Harbor — with new experiences added regularly. We would love to have you back.

What a way to spend a Monday night!

It was fantastic! Our guide “Ace” was very polite and super knowledgeable. He kept things moving along with a history of all things Tarpon Springs and had all the cool ghost gadget's for us and our 14 year old son to stay engaged with. We will definitely be back for another tour, and very much recommend this tour for everyone!

Tom, thank you for taking the time to leave this review. Ace is exactly the kind of guide we built this tour around — someone who knows the history as well as the stories behind it, and who can keep a 14-year-old genuinely engaged without dumbing anything down. That's not easy, and we're proud of it. We'll make sure he sees this. Tarpon Springs has a lot more to give, so when you're ready for round two, we'll be here.

History and Ghost tour = fun night out!

We are from Pennsylvania and were visiting our friends who live in the Orlando Florida area and decided to visit Clearwater with them for a weekend. The ghost tour looked like a good activity for a Sunday night so we signed up. Ace was our tour guide and he couldn’t have been more kind or accommodating to our group. He certainly knows his stuff when it comes to the local history and educated us on many things related to Tarpon Springs, connections to Philadelphia business people, and many other fun facts before beginning our ghost tour. It was a fun night and we would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn about the history and hear some cool paranormal stories.

Thank you so much for joining our Tarpon Springs Ghost Tour, Eric! We’re thrilled you and your group made us part of your Clearwater weekend. Ace is a wonderful guide, and we’re glad to hear his kindness, knowledge of Tarpon Springs, and all those surprising history connections—from local legends to ties with Philadelphia—made the experience memorable. We’re so happy you enjoyed both the haunted history and the paranormal stories. Thank you for the recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back for another Tampa Bay ghost tour the next time you’re in town! —Cynthia, Silent Slayer Ghost Tours

Halloween

We were really looking forward to a fun, spooky evening on Halloween, but unfortunately the tour didn’t quite meet our expectations. It leaned much more toward a history talk than a true paranormal experience, and there wasn’t much in the way of ghost hunting or investigation. The guide seemed kind, but he spent quite a bit of time talking about his own experiences and insecurities, which made it a little hard to stay engaged. My husband even decided to head out partway through. We do appreciate the effort and passion that goes into organizing something like this, but overall it just wasn’t as exciting or interactive as we’d hoped for.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Krista. We’re sorry to hear the Tarpon Springs Ghost & History Tour didn’t meet your expectations. Our goal is to balance authentic haunted history with real paranormal exploration, and we understand that every guest’s experience can vary—especially when spirit activity is unpredictable. We appreciate your comments regarding the tour presentation and will review them with our team, including Ace. We’re glad you recognized his kindness and passion, and we’ll continue refining each experience to ensure guests enjoy both the storytelling and the interactive ghost-hunting elements. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope you’ll give Silent Slayer Ghost Tours another try in the future. Cynthia Dominick Silent Slayer Ghost Tours

Too much history not...

Too much history not enough ghost . The gùìde kept saying how nervous he was. It was off-putting. A tour guide should be confident

Fantastic mix of Spooky and History!

I was there for the spooky, my husband for the history. Left our tour with even my skeptical husband unable to explain what we got on the Spirit Box!! I would recommend the Cemetery tour!! Our guide was so friendly and patient as the spirits tried to come through and guided us to feel free to talk to spirit. You can tell she loves what she does! Absolutely worth it!

Hi rozm461, Thank you so much for joining us and for this wonderful review! We’re thrilled you both enjoyed the perfect mix of haunted history and paranormal activity—and even got your skeptical husband thinking twice after that Spirit Box session! We appreciate your recommendation for the Cemetery tour and your kind words about your guide. We love what we do, and it’s always a joy to share those spooky-yet-historical moments with our guests. Hope to see you again for another ghostly adventure in Tampa Bay! Stay spooky, Cynthia Dominick Silent Slayer Ghost Tours

No name

It is a fun tour with easy walking and a genial guide. Could do without the constant self-deprecating remarks, however.

Ace was friendly and very informative, and walking the quaint streets with history and ghost talks, and learning how to use paranormal equipment was really great! Definitely recommend.

Ace is an Ace as a haunted tour Guide

Ace is an amazing guide. His passion for the history of Tarpon Springs and paranormal is evident. We started with history. He has great connections with locals and their history. We then did a walking tour to experience paranormal activity. He has gear to help us hear, see and feel paranormal activity and there was plenty of activity. We'll come again and bring friends. Thanks Ace
