Description

Many Charleston Ghost Tours have big groups of 25+ - NOT HERE!! We limit our tour sizes to about 12 to keep them fun! Charleston is one of the most charming and colorful cities in the world; however, when the light fades and shadows grow long, a darker side of the Holy City emerges. Over the course of just over 1 mile long, our 90 min walk will pass haunted graveyards, churches, alleyways, hotels, restaurants, and bars. You will hear the real and terrifying stories of ghostly brides, murders, pirates, soldiers, executions, duels, and so much more! As the night falls over the streets of Charleston, we start by the Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon and walk through the historic streets where you will hear about real, and active spirits from Charlestons 350 year history like pirates whose lives were cut short at the end of a noose, a young lady who wonders down a particular alley, and a doctor who walks throughout the Holy City. Come Hear It All!

Haunted walks come to life

Brandon was such an amazing guide through the haunted streets of Charleston! He had the best stories and really made them come to life. Also really appreciated him knowing the "cool" spots so we could all get a respite from the southern heat. Highly recommend booking his tours!

Walking Tour Top Notch

Vannah was an AMAZING and knowledgeable tour guide. You can tell when your guide is there as just a job or if they have a real passion for it and Vannah has a real passion for it. Got an amazing tour, learned a lot of interesting history of the hauntings of Charleston. Definitely would recommend, especially with Vannah.

Brandon Made This Tour

We had such a great time on this tour! Our guide Brandon was absolutely fantastic! He was knowledgeable about the history behind every stop, engaging in the way he told each story, and genuinely accommodating to our group throughout the night. He struck the perfect balance between spooky atmosphere and real historical detail, and you could tell he really loves what he does.
