Galveston Island Ghost Tour

The stories that you’ll hear as we venture on our 1½ hour walking Ghost Tour, past the gilded mansions and palaces are only whispered about on Galveston. People here are too afraid to open a dialog with the dead… afraid to unlock the gates of hell.

We have researched stacks of photographs and letters from those who won’t stay dead! We dive warily into the haunted past and uncover the reasons why this unstoppable paranormal force still grips the island. Bring your garlic, crosses and silver bullets as we descend into the ghost hunt darkness. This Ghost tour is for believers and nonbelievers alike. You’ll turn from skeptic to ghost hunter and learn about Galveston’s unparalleled and fascinating paranormal history along way. This tour is appropriate for all ages. But beware, you may have to run fast…

very fast to escape the clutches of the ghosts.

My boyfriend and I took the ghost tour of Galveston on August 26, Noelle was our tour guide. She did an awesome job giving us the dark paranormal history of each location, we even had the opportunity to tour the inside of one of the mansions. My favorite location was the Ashton Villa, loved the story about Bette, lavish lifestyle and US Army General Gordon Granger, announcing in 1863 the Emancipation Proclamation was in effect. Thanks Noelle for making the tour exciting and informative.

Wow! Thank you for such an incredible review. I'm glad Michael is doing a great job. Matter of fact he was in the middle of moving when I asked him to come take the tour. Maybe he was glad I asked him to get out of it LOL we're glad you had a good time and we hope to see you again soon
