Once the grand gateway to the South, the Union Station Hotel opened in 1900 as Nashville’s most elegant train terminal — a place where soldiers kissed their sweethearts goodbye, gangsters slipped through under assumed names, and travelers from every walk of life passed through under the cathedral-like arches. But behind its beauty lies heartbreak and horror that never left.
Once a place for locals to test out their talents before making it on to the stages of Broadway, now is haunted by murder and a crazed man who blew up the block because he believed he was possessed by lizard people.
Hear the tragic of story of David "Skull" Schulman the former self-proclaimed "Mayor of Printer's Alley'
Printer's Alley, located in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, has a fascinating and eerie haunted history that adds an extra layer of intrigue to its reputation as a historic entertainment district. This narrow, atmospheric alley has been a hub for nightlife, music, and various businesses since the mid-19th century. The Alley's Name: Printer's Alley got its name from the many print shops that were once located in the area. The ghost of a printer who reportedly died under mysterious circumstances is said to haunt the alley. Witnesses claim to have seen him/her wandering the narrow lanes, sometimes in period clothing.
High atop the hill stands the Tennessee State Capitol, designed in the 1840s by architect William Strickland—who was so proud of his work, he chose to be buried inside it. Beneath its elegant façade lies a darker past: Civil War tunnels once used to move bodies, whispers of footsteps after midnight, and stories of Strickland’s ghost still inspecting his masterpiece.
Established in 1822, the Nashville City Cemetery is the city’s oldest and most storied resting place — and it’s anything but quiet. Over 22,000 souls lie beneath its rolling hills, including governors, slaves, soldiers, and sinners. During the Civil War, both Union and Confederate dead were laid side by side, their blood-soaked ghosts said to still roam among the tombstones.

Our guide, Melanie, was super knowledgeable about the history behind each landmark, and the stories were captivating. We went on a late tour and stayed later to experiment with EMF meters, dousing rods and more! I went with my 15-year-old daughter and she had a great time. Highly recommend to any history buffs out there!
We had two tour guides and they were so funny and engaging. We had such a great time and would love to shout out Ashley and “the big cool jacked dude with the cowboy hat.” - my husband lol
I have lived in Nashville my whole life and I learned so much from this tour. Our guides were knowledgeable and entertaining! We had the best time.
Matt brought Nashville's spooky history to life with perfect storytelling and a great sense of humor. He kept everyone engaged, the pace was perfect!
My fiancée and I took the haunted bus tour on August 14th. It was our 5th anniversary as a couple and at the time she was my girlfriend. She absolutely loves dark and scary things so I decided a ghost tour would be a great place to propose. I emailed the company and they were thrilled with the idea and helped me with the best place to do it during the tour. The day of the tour, our guide, Matt, took me to the side and got the details and helped me plan everything out and was so excited to help. Matt was an amazing guide, informative, humorous, and made sure everyone could hear and take part of all parts of the tour. Matt introduced us in the graveyard and offered to take our picture, unbeknownst to my now fiancée he was recording the proposal for us. We had a great time and I don't think the proposal could have gone any better. I will always appreciate Matt for the work he put in to help make our night special and for giving us a way to remember it for the rest of our lives. The tour itself was also very fun and informative and I would encourage anyone visiting Nashville to give it a try!
This tour made our whole month. Congratulations to you both. Getting to be part of the night you proposed is the kind of thing we will be telling people about for years. And Matt came back absolutely glowing, he could not stop talking about it, so trust me the feeling is mutual. He loves this stuff and he loved getting to help you pull it off in the graveyard. Thank you for trusting us with a moment that big. That means everything to us. Give your fiancée a hug from all of us, and when you two are back in Nashville the graveyard will be waiting. Congratulations again, and here is to the rest of your lives.
Fun and friendly. Smooth ride. Would highly recommend for anyone who likes spooky.
Fun tour …. Very informative, great stories, and loved that it was a very relaxed atmosphere. Loved that our guide was a Vandy student!! Our driver was also quite the history buff, so we were lucky to have had both.
Had a great time and found very informative
Very informative & you get to ride in a air conditioned van. You will go to the capital building & have to climb stairs.
Great tour. Tour guide was very good!
