Charleston Dark History & Ghost Tour with Adam
Description
I offer great stories and good times! What makes this tour unique is that I can promise that you will be getting me, Adam Moore, as your tour guide. With some of the other larger tour companies you never know who your guide could be. When you book this tour you can be reassured that I will be your guide. This makes sure that you will be getting a licensed and engaging tour guide here in Charleston. In addition to that, most tours in Charleston will take out 20 people on a tour. I keep my tours smaller and max out at 14-15 people. By having smaller groups it allows my guests to have a more personalized and unique experience.
Tour Options
Itinerary
Poogans Porch is Charleston's most haunted restaurant. It opened up in 1976 as a restaurant and that's when the ghost stories started coming.
This beautiful cobblestone road is one of the oldest in the city. It was laid out in 1680 and it has a lot of dark history behind it. We talk about the various wars fought in Charleston, the enslavement of people, hurricanes, fires and floods...all of which have seem to have left some ghosts in the area.
We pass by this beautiful and historic building on our tour.
Built in the 1750's I tell a famous ghost story outside of the old courthouse which is located on the corner of Broad Street and Meeting Street
We stop by the oldest graveyard in the city to look at a ghost photo and talk about being buried alive in graves.
We do our final 2 ghost stories by the graveyard and cemetery of the historic St Philip's Church.

Spooky and spectacular! Adam was a great tour guide, showing us some of the spookiest areas of downtown Charleston and telling great stories (with photos!). He was kind and considerate, and a very knowledgeable tour guide with tons of experience. Thank you for a really fun and unique birthday experience, Adam! Highly recommend for groups, couples, and families. He knows his stuff!
Adam was Fun with good stories of Charleston history & ghosts. It wasn’t too much walking & thunder & windy night added fun vibes.
Great guide, very entertaining and friendly. Extremely informative. Some great ghost stories and Charleston history.
We love taking ghost tours whenever friends or family visit Charleston, usually making an evening of it with dinner and a tour. We’ve been on quite a few over the years, and our tour with Adam Moore was by far the best! Adam was incredibly knowledgeable and did a wonderful job blending Charleston history with the ghost stories. Even as locals, we learned several things we had never heard before. The entire tour was interesting, engaging, and thoroughly enjoyable. We would absolutely recommend Adam’s tour to locals and visitors alike. Five stars!
Adam was great! Very knowledgable, funny, and entertaining. Even my family that are locals enjoyed learning the history of their city.
Thanks Jen for coming on the tour, that's an especially good compliment when I can get locals to say they enjoy the tour and touristy stuff :) Thanks again for supporting my small business.
If you enjoy a good mix of history and storytelling Adam is definitely the guide for you. He has such a vast knowledge of all of the history involved in this town and that makes the storytelling even better. It’s always better when you can tell someone loved what they do!
Thanks for coming on the tour, I do love giving history and ghost tours in the city. Since I am a historian I like to mix in some dark history, true crime and ghost photos in my tour. A little something for everyone.
Great for a family! The tour guide was very informative and answered questions. He was a great story teller!
Thank you, I am glad y'all took my tour and enjoyed the storytelling and history on my tour. Take Care!
My husband and I had a wonderful time walking around learning some of the history and how the ghost stories tie in. LOVED IT! Adam does a fantastic job and we look forward to another one when we return.
Thanks so much Danielle! I look forward to seeing y'all again and I would be honored to show you more of Charleston on a daytime History Tour. I have all new stories and we cover some interesting alley's in town.
We had a group ranging from age 82 to age 12 and Adam’s stories of Charleston history and pace of the tour were enjoyed by all. The combination of ghost stories and Charleston history made this a learning and spooky experience! If you’re looking to go into graveyards and cemeteries, this is likely not the experience for you- but if you’re hoping to experience a more realistic and informative ghost tour that speaks to all, please choose this!
Thanks Erin for coming on the tour, your group was so fun and pleasant.. I bounce around on the tour to 5 spots (2 marked graveyards) and 2 unmarked graveyards so I keep things moving around rather than going deep into 1 graveyard. I am certainly not the ghost hunting type of tour but I am delighted y'all chose my tour and the range of people enjoyed the variety for ghosts, history and true crime. Thanks for supporting my small business :)
Really enjoyed the experience with Adam as our guide. He was really knowledgeable about the history of Charleston and we particularly liked the fact that we got a good dose of history intertwined throughout the tour. Wish we could have walked thru some of the cemeteries instead of just looking thru or over the bars of the gates, but I understand why that is not possible.
Thanks for coming on the tour and for the nice review. I am glad you liked the mix of history with ghost stories and true crime. Hope to see y'all again for a Small Group and Alleyway history tour someday. Take care
