We enjoyed our ghost tour around Franklin and learned a lot about the history of the city, in particular the sites around our tour. For example, I had no idea Edgar Allen Poe had ties to Richmond! Our guide was very animated and knowledgeable and, unlike the a previous reviewer, our tour did last the whole 90 minutes advertised.

Thank you for joining us on a tour! We’re glad that you enjoyed your time with us and that you learned some of our spooky history along the way, including Richmond’s ties to our beloved Mr. Poe. We hope that you can join us for another tour soon!

Our guide Marcia was engaging as she led us through a neighborhood full of beautiful architecture and chilling historical tales. Would highly recommend for any architecturally minded people who like a good ghost story.
