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.

Daniel was AWESOME! He made our experience frightful (in a good way) and it was definitely a night to remember. He spoke so highly of the city of Memphis and you can tell that he really respects the spirits he tells you the stories of. We learned so much about the ghosts of Memphis and would be more than excited to go on another tour with Daniel. There were some sports where we were suggested to take photos to try and capture orbs and ghosts on camera and my husband was lucky and caught an orb!!! (photos attached, you can see the blue spot move) If you like spooky things/true crime/history, I would highly recommend that you take this tour of Memphis! If I could rate it higher than 5 stars, I would!!!

Our tour guide, Daniel, was amazing! My only tip is to make sure you do this tour at the beginning of your stay in Memphis. We learned about so many places to check out, and didn’t have time to visit them.
