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.

It was just ok,as I have been on better ones but it was entertaining as I didn’t know Nashville had underground tunnels. After an hour we had to leave at we didn’t buy the extended tour ?. I only thought it was just a tour ?. Guide spoke way too fast and there is no phone number to call the company, very frustrating.

Wasn’t as interesting as the one I did in New Orleans. Most of the places weren’t visible. Like in New Orleans u could see the spot and the lady would say take a picture u might have something come up in ur picture. Also the lady giving the tour talked so fast that it was hard to keep up with what she was saying. I don’t recommend this tour try another one and I wont be doing this tour again.
