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.

Very unprofessional, boring, unorganized. Our party of four finally just left after a couple of stops. Horrible! We go on a lot of ghost tours and this by far was the absolute worst.

We showed up for our tour 15 minutes early as indicated on the website and waited for 15 minutes after the time we were supposed to leave and our tour guide never showed up. We walked 15 minutes up there from the hotel in the rain and then had to walk 15 minutes back in the pouring rain and we were reassured the morning of the tour that it would still happen even though it was right in the area of the Christmas morning bombing that happened a few days earlier. We wouldn’t have cared if it had to be cancelled but to not let anybody know is pretty rude and I would not recommend this tour to anybody and I will not book this tour again.

If I could give a 0 star, I would. AWFUL AND DO NOT BOOK EVER!! We arrived 15 minutes early for our 8pm and waited until 820. No show. It was raining and cold. They NEVER responded to my calls or messages. Ended up booking a better tour due to lack of competence to show up to their job or give notice to guests.
