90-minute Ghost Walking Tour in Bar Harbor

Overview

On our ghost walk, you'll travel the sea-sprayed Shore Path, where you might catch a glimpse of a ghost or even a sea serpent. You'll learn the history behind a variety of mysterious local incidents and expand your knowledge of the supernatural with accounts of the three major types of ghosts: residual manifestations, intelligent hauntings, and poltergeists. The weird tales include the strange goings-on at otherwise opulent lodgings like the Balance Rock Inn, the legendary Bar Harbor Club, and several other paranormal hotspots about town.

Marcus LiBrizzi, author of Ghosts of Acadia and Haunted Islands in the Gulf of Maine, two of the authoritative books on Maine's haunted tales, calls our tour "an unforgettable, spine-tingling tour of Bar Harbor’s haunted sites." Join us to discover for yourself.

What To Expect

Agamont Park

Begin at the beginning with tales from the indigenous peoples who once called the area home. Some ancient monster sightings from the Wabanaki Confederacy's oral tradition curiously align with more contemporary accounts of encounters with unknown animals.

Shore Path

Ghost stories abound along this scenic walkway as well as spectacular views of famous landmarks including the Egg Rock Lighthouse and Balance Rock. It's also the perfect setting for spooky seafaring yarns, tales of Maine's haunted lighthouses, and reports of a local sea serpent.

Criterion Theater

Like many vintage cinemas and performance venues this historic theater has its own ghostly lore. What makes this destination unique are its scandalous historical secrets as well as its peculiar Silver Screen specters such as the glowing green ghost said to wander backstage.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

The tour was a blast, we learned a lot about the rich and paranormal history of Bar Harbor. Our tour guide Abby was very knowledgeable and had a few personal spooky stories she shared. If you have some time I would definitely recommend it.

We highly recommend this ghost walk through Bar Harbor! Our guide Abby is a local and gave us real accounts of the experiences she and people she knew have had. She also gave us history of the area, walked us through some beautiful areas we wouldn’t have seen otherwise, and gave us suggestions of things to do during our visit. We’ve been on many ghost tours across the country, and this one stands out because of the real personal accounts by a friendly, local, and knowledgeable guide. Thank you Abby!
