Williamsburg West Tour

Overview

The only ghost tour in the world based on the first ever photo-study of ghosts! Real ghost photos, featured in the books Haunted Historic Colonial Williamsburg Virginia with Breakthrough Ghost Photography, Parts 1 & 2, are shown at each stop on a large computer notebook (Samsung Galaxy). Guides will point out the exact location around or in the house or building where the photo was taken and encourage travelers to take their own photos. Tour guides will give relevant historical information pertaining to the haunting as well as personal stories encountered by the book's author and others, including interpreters and security guards from Colonial Williamsburg. Travelers will be given choices about where they would like to stop based on their interests--no tour is ever the same! The West Tour starts at the Cheese Shop in Merchants Square and continues to various buildings in Colonial Williamsburg to the last stop--Williamsburg's most haunted: the Peyton Randolph House.

This tour is a one of a kind and a must for those who love ghost tours, history tours, etc. Tim was outstanding and is an awesome photographer. Some of his photos are extremely spooky and will give you the chills. He taught us what to look for when taking pictures. I always shoot with a small camera and usually get orbs, but I never thought about taking pictures, seeing a light cloud, and cropping them to see what is in those pictures. We did get faces. It's truly amazing. Tim is knowledgeable about the area and will keep you mesmerized. We will go on the ghostographer tour again and we are planning to buy Tim's book. I would have uploaded my pictures, but what is showing on the camera, won't show on my computer. First, I uploaded the pictures and made duplicates, just in case I cropped incorrectly. Then I went back into my computer and the ghostly pictures were gone. So I uploaded again. Now those same pictures are black. All the other pictures are fine. No, not operator error. It's very bizarre.
