What To Expect

Castillo de San Marcos National Monument

We'll discuss the founding of St. Augustine, the imprisonment of the Seminole Tribe, the ghost of Osceola, and the ghosts of the Doomed Lovers. This stop deals with decapitation, infidelity, betrayal, war, and freedom.

Huguenot Cemetery

Here, we'll talk about the ghost of John Stickney, whose teeth were robbed from his grave.

Tolomato Cemetery

This is the story of the "Exploding Bishop," whose casket exploded. We'll also talk about the ghost of "Little James," the five-year-old who died across the street.

Oldest Wooden School House

This little schoolhouse is more historically and architecturally crucial than it might have been otherwise as this is the oldest wooden structure in the city.

Killian was awesome! Very knowledgeable and engaging! I don’t usually get spooked, but I did this time!

Brooke was a super fun and friendly guide. She had the history of St Augustine woven into the ghostly tales. The trainee, Katrina(? ) was engaging and fun. I have taken several ghost tours in St. Augustine with my visitors and this was by far the best

We went on a tour with Peter on a ridiculously cold night, but we still had a great time. It was us and another couple, so it was really easy to follow along. Our tour guide, Peter, was great at cracking jokes but still getting to the meat of the conversation. He told us about his background in teaching, and you can really tell in the way he explains things. I left the tour knowing a lot more about the city, and we may have spotted a ghost at the Castillo. I recommend this even if it’s cold! The history and the sights are worth it!
