Haunted Memphis Walking Ghost Tour

Overview

Enjoy the darker side of Memphis and hear tales of the city's haunted heritage as told by professional storytellers. The city’s South Main Historic District – an eclectic, colorful area with some of the city’s oldest buildings – has a long history of sensational murders and ghostly activity. On this two-hour walking tour, you'll visit a number of haunted sites, including:
• The Orpheum Theater, home of "Mary," who has haunted performances since 1921
• The John Alexander Austin House, a Victorian era mansion haunted by star-crossed lovers
• The notorious Ernestine & Hazel's, a former brothel long recognized as one of the most haunted buildings in Memphis. We'll take you inside this creepy establishment, home to several ghosts as well as a haunted jukebox.

It was our 1st trip to Memphis and we really enjoyed the tour. The guide was very knowledable. Unfortunately with COVID 19, she had to wear a face shield. This made hearing her a little harder.

We had the benefit of being the only guests, so we were treated to an intimate experience with a guide who was able to direct her full attention to us. Each of the stops was enjoyable and informative, and we were grateful to have it as part of our visit to Memphis.
