Don't let the trolley take you for a ride. We're the only ghost tour in Key West where you'll walk the dark halls of historic Fort East Martello with authentic ghost-hunting equipment and meet Key West's infamous haunted doll, Robert. USA Today named us one of America's 10 Most Haunted Destinations, and Thrillist calls us "The Creepiest Place in Florida." See for yourself, but be warned: we actively engage spirits, so our hunts are not for everyone. We're family-owned by real Key West locals, and our Google satisfaction rating is 4.9. Our owners opened the first ghost tours on the island and wrote Ghosts of Key West, Haunted Key West, and the biography of Robert the Doll. Book VIP here for the two-hour ghost-hunting adventure, which includes an additional hour hunting ghosts on your own after the guided tour. (Book General Admission tickets on our site for the one-hour guided tour only). There are dozens of ghost tours in Key West. See why people are dying to get into ours.
The ghost tour includes a 60-minute guided ghost tour followed by 60 minutes of hunting ghosts on your own. The experience takes place inside Key West's haunted Fort East Martello Museum where you will learn the haunted history of the Civil War fort and meet the infamous Robert the Doll. The first 40 minutes of the tour are on foot. Short walks between rooms at an easy pace followed by a 20-minute sitdown with Robert the Doll. After the guided hour, VIP ticket holders have an hour to hunt ghosts on their own with access to the former Yellow Fever hospital (VIP exclusive). The VIP Experience includes the use of ghost-hunting equipment like K-2 Meters, spirit dowsing rods, spirit boxes, and trigger objects. There is time at the end to take photos with Robert the Doll if you are feeling brave.

We had a really good time!! Thanks
I did the VIP experience by myself with no one else around, except me and the museum and the doll. Had a blast!
I 100% recommend the VIP Robert the Doll After Dark Tour! Dan was such an excellent guide and very informative and awesome! After the group sit down with Robert and the VIP self-guided investigation begin, we chose to take a spirit box down the hall on the other side of the Fort where the bodies of those who died from yellow fever were stored. We got a GOOD 25-30 seconds of someone coming though saying what either sounds like my name or “old man” and “it’s heavy” (Dan had mentioned earlier in the tour that it feels sad and heavy in that area of the fort) and some other words I’m still trying to make out. We continued walking through the fort and went back to the area on the left side of where all the paranormal equipment is and briefly heard something come through again on the box. We didn’t have any luck after that, so we started walking back to the table. We were close to the old safe/diving suit exhibit and suddenly, the babydoll on the table began laughing. After putting the spirit box back on the table with the equipment, we just looked at each other walked back outside and came in to the main area where the gift shop is. We asked Dan if anyone else was still doing the tour except us, but no one else was there to set it off because everyone else had left, and he had been up front for awhile. We had so much fun and still have chills days later. This tour is worth the time and money and we will DEFINITELY do this again next time we come back to Key West! We came back again the following day before our flight (free admission since we came two nights before) and bought two of David’s books and explored the tower at the fort. I can’t wait to read them and come back!
Dan was fantastic! When we come back we will def be doing the VIP tour.
Happy to hear you enjoyed the investigation! Looking forward to having you join us again.
It was really fun. It was a little hot in there though. I have a feeling that my friend was involved with a negative entity as she had to leave the building and vomited when she got outside. I met people and we were ingaging with 2 spirits. Michael and Rick. Can't wait to go back. Danny was our host and he was great!!! Thank you Danny!!
Thanks for the kind words! Thank you for sharing, it sounds like quite the paranormal encounter! We hope to see you on a future investigation!
Our tour guide was amazing walking around the fort was very creepy and an awesome experience on the VIP tour meeting, Robert was an experience. We will never forget.
Thank you for joining us on the investigation! Glad to hear you enjoyed the experience
Learning about fort history with a chance to explore on our own was a one of a kind experience that we would recommend to anyone. Did we have any encounters - didn’t see anything but heard several replies on the spirit box. We heard the name “Bishop” twice and when we asked if we should stay or leave we heard “leave us” so we ran outta there. It is probably the only time we will ever have an opportunity to use so many different types of ghost hunting tools.
Thank you for sharing the activity you encountered! Those are pretty solid responses while using the Spirit box, funny enough some other guests have been hearing the name “Bishop”
Spooky but fun! Matt our tour guide was awesome. A good mix of history with ghost hunting. Unique experience and one you will remember!
Thank you Julie!
Lots of fun for all amateur ghost hunters out there! Very cool. Enjoyed the experience would do it again.
Thank you Michael!
This was so much fun! The tour was incredible, spooky and everything we imagined. We really enjoyed the ghost hunt at the end and we could swear we had some activity!
Glad to hear you enjoyed the experience! Even better that you had a paranormal experience!
