Downtown Nashville Dead of Night Haunted Dark History Walking Tour

Overview

Book Directly With Nashville Ghosts and save $5/person.
Nashville Ghosts takes you on a haunted walking ghost tour to explore the sinister side of this electric city. Walk with us through Broadway’s active nightlife and find out the sinister secrets hidden in some of the area’s most popular locations. Learn about the bar where Hank Williams Sr. still grabs a drink or the storied history of the legendary Ryman Auditorium, home of the Grand Ole Opry radio show. Listen to the tragic aftermath of the 2010 floods that devastated the area and added a deep psychic pain to the whole area.

The city existed long before the music industry, and while that makes up a large portion of their modern identity, there is a rich history that adds to the depth of the area’s paranormal history. The stories on our tour will likely disturb and frighten you, but they will also provide a fascinating window into a version of the city as it was, and the version you will see today.

We give Lola and Nashville Ghosts 5 stars! We planned a trip to Nashville for the family and our 8 year old son loves anything haunted so we booked this event for him. We were a bit skeptical at first because the meeting place seemed a little shady. We all had a great time learning more about Nashville, the historical places, and about all the hauntings of those places. We purchased the extended tour so those last four stops ended up being just our family. Lola answered all of our youngest son's questions and even made sure the boys got pictures of everything they wanted. She also walked us back in the direction of where we parked. We especially enjoyed Lola's sense of humor on the tour. Alistair (13yo) enjoyed chatting about history with Lola. Anderson (8yo) says Lola deserves a raise.

Jen (our guide) was very knowledgeable and (probably most important) had a positive, excited, engaging affect. Make sure you have supportive shoes. The extended tour was worth it too.
