What To Expect

Boston Common
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.
2
The Cathedral Church of Saint Paul
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.
3
Massachusetts State House
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.

My friend and I were the only ones attending the tour on a frigid January night, and we had the best time! Jake did a great job bringing to life the ghostly tales of old Boston. He was thoughtful and patient with us. He knew his history and made the tales very engaging and entertaining. Highly recommend!
