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.

This was a great walking tour through the dark streets of Williamsburg to hear about the promised ghosts, witches and pirates. Our friendly, entertaining and knowledgeable guide included history, legends, tales, and personal anecdotes in his talk throughout the evening. Our guide was ever mindful of our safety over uneven terrain in the dark, and warning of other hazards such as puddles or mud or "road apples" left behind by a carriage team. The tour was perfectly paced, keeping our group moving without rushing, allowing enough time to enjoy the stories and absorb the sites and sights. I am handicapped and use an electric three wheeled cart to get around and was able to fully participate in this tour. All in all a delightful evening.

The tour was just average. The stories were pretty boring. And, it ended 30 minutes before the scheduled time of 9:45. Would not do another tour with this company.
