Description
Go where other tours can’t. Enter historic Fort East Martello after dark, meet Robert the Doll, then stay behind for an extended paranormal investigation inside the haunted Civil War-era fort. Your VIP experience begins with a 30-minute guided ghost tour through the fort, followed by a 30-minute seated encounter directly with Robert the Doll. Hear the documented history behind his legend, separate fact from folklore, and learn about the latest unexplained activity surrounding him. Then, when the standard experience ends, VIP guests remain inside the fort for an additional 60-minute paranormal investigation, using ghost-hunting equipment to explore one of Key West’s most unusual historic sites after dark. Fort East Martello has been named one of America’s Top 10 Haunted Destinations by USA TODAY. This is your chance to experience the fort in a way daytime visitors and ordinary ghost tours cannot.
