What To Expect

Colonial Williamsburg Capitol Building

Experience the many ghosts of this old colonial town that are still seen today. Learn of the hangings of Blackbeard's crew and what happened to Blackbeard's skull. Did our forefathers really drink from his skull? Stand right where Grace Sherwood, the most famous witch, is often seen during mock trials in the Capitol and hear of her fate, finally pardoned by Gov. Tim Kean after centuries of being called the Witch of Pungo. Learn of Anne Bonny and Mary Reed (a woman posing as Mark Reed) who were aboard Calico Jack's ship and fought like men. Top it all off by going to the Jones Graveyard, where Ida Jones still haunts the graves today, in the late-night hours.

Originally, my husband and I booked this tour but then the 14yo and her bestie decided they wanted to come along too, so it ended up being the 4 of us and our 6yo son. From the start, I could tell that the tour would be fun. Marcus was very friendly and took the time to welcome everyone as we arrived. The stories were interesting and very well delivered. Marcus took notice of my 6yo covering his ears while listening to the stories (after the sun had set). He made a point to come up to him in between stories to check on him and let him know that ghosts don’t mess with kids when they are surrounded by their parents. By the end our son was sitting up front with a couple of other kids fully engaged in the stories.
