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.

We really enjoyed our experience with our guide Jay. We are pretty sure we caught an orb in our video in the alley beside the Gayoso House. We highly recommend this ghost tour.

Wow, that's so neat to hear, Waylon! That is such a creepy story and I don't think we've ever had much activity there--but, Jay seems to bring out our ghostly friends. We're glad you had fun and took the time to leave us a review. Please come back and see us soon!
