What To Expect

Liberty Bell Center

Not your typical Liberty Bell, this Dark Philly Adult Night Tour nonetheless traverses the path's of our Founding Fathers and doubles as a historical and sightseeing tour that includes mature-audience content and ghost stories. We walk directly up to The Liberty Bell and will discuss its history, damage, and significance in American history and as an icon of These United States.

Independence Hall

Independence Hall where the Declaration and Constitution were signed sits directly across the street from a known brothel and den of iniquity in where statesman and sports alike were known to frequent. Contextualizing debates for independence, the war, and founding of The United States with baser urges, philandering, and the sex industry in 1776 is what you will here in this location.

The President's House

The home lived in by George Washington, John Adams, (and Benedict Arnold) was not always revered the way it is today. Contextualized on this site will be the presidencies and military governorship occurring on this spot, along with darker histories of the location both during and after the revolutionary period; including the significance of archaeological excavations to the revelations.

Congress Hall

Significant for the inaugurations two American President's and early debates of our young nation while Philadelphia was America's capital...information on this site will flesh out the darker aspects of those men who sat in congress and senate here. We have a daytime tour exploring the rosier side of our founders. This tour is not that. And explores the darker side of America's founding by imperfect men, flawed and motivated (on occasion) by self-interest and lust.

Tomb of the Unknown Soldier of the American Revolution

Thousands of American Traitors were executed here by the British Crowne and buried in mass graves on this site. We visit them, contextualize the suffering, and retell the ghost stories and haunted lore here.

Walnut Street

Merchants Exchange Building

Toni was a great guide and gave us tons of interesting and spooky information. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a different side of Philly!

My husband and I have been on many different walking tours throughout the United States, and this one was by far one of our favorites. Our guide, Joe, was outstanding - enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and hilarious. The tour was about 2 hours long, but honestly, we could’ve listened to him talk all day! It was one of those tours where you leave knowing so much more than when you started. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in the darker, more scandalous history of Philadelphia. Wonderful tour!

I have been on other after dark ghost tours in other cities and countries and have enjoyed them immensely! However, this one was not one I would recommend. After an apology for using the word s**t and asking if he could use that word, the middle school teacher reminded me more of what I suspect his pre-pubescent students may be like. A super foul mouth child who was more interested in telling us about himself and using naughty words than the content of the tour. While some of the content was interesting, the immaturity of his presentation left a lot to be desired! A big disappointment!
