Historic Galveston Ghost Tour

Overview
This is the highest rated tour according to Google and TripAdvisor in Galveston. 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’ll unravel the horrible, scary secrets that lurk inside the ghost sanctuaries… secrets kept for the past 150 years! 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 run.

We did this tour with 2 kids both 11 yrs old. They enjoyed it but, the first stop did scare them; after that they were good. I definitely recommend this tour to anybody who is into ghost stories with some history components. I attached a photo of what we assume is a ghost that my sister got on her camera.

I was a little hesitant about taking this tour, I am what is fondly referred to as a big chicken, lol. Jon the owner stopped by before the tour to meet us and I can’t thank him enough for this amazing experience. I had researched Galveston’s history quite a bit before this trip but Brittany our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and brought to light several new facts and events about various locations that I was not aware of. She was very knowledgeable, friendly and really brought the stories to life. Whether your into Ghost, or your a history buff, this tour is for you! Don’t make the mistake of missing it when you visit Galveston, I’m so glad I did this!! This is Not a paid review. Lori L A Shot of Tx Photography & Travel

We did the ghost tour the Monday before Halloween and it was just as creepy as expected. Our tour guide, Brittany, did an excellence job of telling the history of Galveston and why it is the most haunted city in America! Unfortunately, no ghosts were sited on our tour but otherwise it was a great way to spend a couple of hours. It should be noted that Brittany was a very fast walker! I think we had a couple of folks on the tour who could have benefited from a bit slower pace so if you're not in at least average shape, you might want to try a different tour. Also, we had about 16 on our tour, which was a good number. Everyone could gather up and hear her well. She mentioned that one of the weekend tours had over 100 people! I'm not sure that would have been as enjoyable. Overall, very highly recommended!
