Pass by
Prepare yourself for a Frightseeing Adventure like none other as your resident Ghost Host shares tales both true and truly unnerving of the city’s tumultuous past. Discover the secrets of the Tolomoto Cemetery and the apparition seen playing on the sacred grounds after dark. Could it be the spirit of five-year old James or is it the Ghost Bride, still waiting for her walk down the aisle.
Pass by
Be sure to keep a watchful eye while passing by the old City Gates. You might catch a glimpse of Elizabeth, a child victim of the yellow fever, waving to passersby

Ghostly trolley ride through Saint Augustine
The wife and I had a wonderful time. We enjoyed the tour seeing the graveyard next to the wax museum.
After that, they took us inside for an interactive adventure. That was also enjoyable.
We got to see some of the wax museum before departing and continue on down to the oldest jail in the country. They locked us in a jail cell while one of the staff tells us the story of the 8 people that were hanged at the jail. He was very good and very descriptive at painting a rather scary experience.
Then outside the jail, they take us to the hanging post and continues the story.
All in all, it was a very fun night and worth the money. We did it at 10 o’clock at night to make it much more realistic.
The wax museum is a tour by itself, same with the jail. By booking the ghostly tour, you get to see part of both of those tours and save money that way.

Enjoyed the stories. Didn’t really see any signs of hauntings. Inside the museum was a very interesting story and audience involved stop.

Recommend! Such a fun experience.
We really didn't know what to expect - we are little goths at heart (and I love my history) so we were hoping for a mix of History, horror, and cheese. They absolutely delivered! We only had about 8 of us on the tour, but that was great. If anything, we wish the tour were a bit longer (even though already 1hr 20mins). But it was good fun, and Thomas (our guide) was super informative and enthusiastic.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review and post the pictures from your experience! Come and see us again soon!

Haunted trolley tour
Tour starts inside where you check in which we weren’t told about & missed. Trolley goes to a cemetery and then a jail where you depart the trolley. Then while driving to those spots the guide talks about different hauntings. Guides stayed in character which was fun. Won’t take more than once. Not sure it was worth the money.

Great tour - excellent blend of History, myths, and personal experiences
This was a fun ghost tour with a great blend of History, myths, and personal experiences mixed in. The ghost host (Thomas) was really good, and lovely, as was our driver (Elvira) and our Old Jail inmate, "Charlie" (played by Tim). If anything, we wished the tour would last another 30mins or so with another stop or two. Well worth the money.
