Start the tour at one of Boston's oldest hotels, the Omni Parker House is steeped in haunted history. Guests and staff have reported eerie encounters, including the lingering presence of the hotel's founder, Harvey Parker, who is said to roam the halls, ensuring his guests are well cared for—even from beyond the grave.
This historic cemetery is the final resting place of many famous figures from the American Revolution. Among the ancient tombstones, visitors have reported strange orbs, shadowy figures, and the unsettling feeling of being watched, as the spirits of the past seem to linger in this sacred ground.
As America's oldest public park, Boston Common has a dark past that includes public hangings and duels. The ghostly apparitions of those executed here are said to wander the grounds at night, with sightings of misty figures and disembodied voices adding to the park's eerie atmosphere.
This historic church has been a site of worship since the early 1800s, but it's also known for its spectral visitors. Mysterious sounds and shadowy figures have been reported, with some believing the spirits of former parishioners remain, drawn back to the church in death.
Overlooking Boston Common, the Massachusetts State House has a haunted reputation tied to its Revolutionary War history. Some say the spirits of soldiers and politicians roam the halls, with ghostly footsteps and unexplained cold spots felt by those who work late into the night.
This historic library is home to more than just rare books. Visitors have reported seeing ghostly figures among the stacks and feeling an unshakable sense of being watched, particularly near the portrait of George Washington, which is rumored to be haunted by a former librarian.
The John Adams Courthouse, steeped in legal history, is rumored to be haunted by the spirits of those who faced justice within its walls. Echoes of past trials and ghostly apparitions have been reported, with some visitors feeling an eerie presence in the courtrooms.
King's Chapel is one of Boston's oldest churches, with a burial ground that dates back to 1630. The cemetery is said to be haunted by restless spirits, including a mysterious "Black Minister" who is occasionally seen wandering among the gravestones at dusk.
I went on a tour in the past with a different tour company, and we got to go into the locked graveyards. This tour only stops outside the gates of all of these sites, which was a bit disappointing, especially when we could see other groups inside the graveyards while our tour guide talked to us outside.
John was the tour guide and he was very funny and lively. Great tour, while it being dark already, it made the tour even better. very interesting and engaging.
We had an amazing night filled with history lead by our tour guide John. Admission was easy and affordable. We did the extended tour and feel like it was worth it. The tour took us around the city. Highly recommend!
Had an absolute blast! Booked the tour 15min before it started and was nervous since I didn't do any reserch into it. Had a great time with my friend and the guide was a blast. Telling good jokes, weaving a good story, and made sure we were safe navigating Boston at night 😆
Our tour was fun! Our guide was knowledgeable. She shared a lot of history and told a ghost story for each site that we stopped at. It wasn’t a scary tour but did send a few chills! We recommend taking it.
We had an excellent time on the ghost tour! Ellis was an outstanding guide—his storytelling was detailed, engaging, and really brought the city's history and ghost stories to life. He took us to several fascinating locations, and each stop had its own unique and interesting story. We were visiting as a family, and even our 11-year-old and 15-year-old thoroughly enjoyed the tour. It was the perfect mix of history, mystery, and fun without being overly scary. It also gave us a chance to see different parts of the city from a unique perspective that we wouldn't have experienced otherwise. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you're looking for an entertaining and memorable way to explore the city!
We Never got to go inside any of the locations or graveyards and our guide was a poor storyteller. She was nice but not a good storyteller. She said umm a lot and didn’t have an emotion or dramatization in her storytelling. There was nothing spooky about this tour at all. It was very disappointing standing outside the graveyard gates while other tour groups went inside but our guide said it was closed and we couldn’t enter. This was a waste of money. I should have booked with ghosts and gravestones tours because they were going inside the locations.
Ellis was great, she is so knowledgeable and a great storyteller. We had a great time and travelled with our pup. There is a lot of walking so be prepared.
Our guide was great, had a lot of really interesting information about the different stops along the way. A close area also, so it wasn’t too much walking.
You pay for them to spam you everyday after the tour asking for a review. Not worth the $26 for the harassment
