Visite fantôme de Ghost On the Strand

Aperçu
Galveston has seen a horrifying number of sudden deaths. An ungodly number of the islands dearly departed, well never departed. Their spirits are lurking in the shadows, alleys, staircases and stalk THE STRAND every day! The historic 19th century buildings on THE STRAND have become ghost sanctuaries. And the ghosts inside are just dying to meet you.

Join us on our 90 minute walking tour as we explore the fascinating paranormal happenings on the strand, the original street of horror. Hurricanes, war, fire, and epidemics! The pirate Jean Lafitte even turned the island into a den of thieves. Galveston has more ghosts than any other city in U.S.

Walking in the night, translucent figures will float by the windows. Shadows will suddenly appear and objects move of their own accord as we huddle closer to one another for are mutual protection. We never know what’s waiting for us around the corners. Beware and be scared! After all Galveston is nothing but “a cemetery with a beach attached.”

À quoi s'attendre
1
Galveston Railroad Museum
At its height this railroad station saw over 40,000 people a day on their way to Galveston's bars, casinos and brothels. An engineer by the name of William Watson would entertain the passing crowds by doing handstands on the cattle guard of the engines. One unfortunate day he SLIPPED and was immediately decapitated. A derby hat was still securely sitting on the head they found A MILE AWAY!
2
Grand 1894 Opera House
Charles F. Coghlan a famous British actor sailed to Galveston to grace the stage of The Grand Opera House. But poor Charles died before the curtain was ever raised. What to do with this distinguished visitor’s body? While waiting for the answer THE GREAT STORM demolished the island and carried Charles coffin out to sea. It floated from Galveston to Prince Albert Sound before it finally made land…ABOUT A MILE FROM WHERE CHARLES WAS GOING TO RETIRE!

Musée du chemin de fer de Galveston
À son apogée, cette gare ferroviaire a vu plus de 40 000 personnes par jour se rendre dans les bars, les casinos et les bordels de Galveston. Un ingénieur du nom de William Watson divertirait les foules de passage en faisant le poirier sur la garde du bétail des moteurs. Un jour malheureux, il a glissé et a été immédiatement décapité. Un chapeau derby était toujours solidement assis sur la tête qu'ils ont trouvée à UN MILE DE LOIN !

Grand opéra de 1894
Charles F. Coghlan, un célèbre acteur britannique, a navigué jusqu'à Galveston pour honorer la scène du Grand Opera House. Mais le pauvre Charles est mort avant que le rideau ne se lève. Que faire du corps de ce visiteur distingué ? En attendant la réponse, LA GRANDE TEMPÊTE a démoli l'île et emporté le cercueil de Charles en mer. Il a flotté de Galveston à Prince Albert Sound avant de finalement atterrir… ENVIRON UN MILE DE L'OÙ CHARLES ALLAIT PRENDRE SA RETRAITE !

We called Viator and spoke with an agent so we could pick a tour that had an inside portion because of the weather. We were told this tour went into the railroad museum and the opera house. We didn’t even talk about those two locations and the tour was completely outside.

I'm very sorry that via tour misinformed you. They completely missed the boat. As all of our websites indicate , our tours are conducted outside and we don't go into any of the buildings. They should have paid specific attention to your request. Please call via tour and ask for a refund and I'll approve it sorry for your inconvenience John 832-245-0492

Was a very active night, and we had a fairly large group. Unfortunately some of the group kept having to go get a drink or bathroom, causing the tour to be a bit shorter than would have liked. It was freezing, but still had fun, and even caught a few good ghost pics. Would do it again.

Pirate John was AMAZING! He was very knowledgeable about the history of Galveston and all things spooky about the island. We have been to Galveston several times but had never taken one of the tours. This was definitely worth the time and very affordable since we had ten in our group. John never missed a beat even when we were interrupted by unexpected noises or other people. He waited to finish his story until all could hear again. He is the best tour guide I believe I have ever had!! Watch out for the pirate jokes though!!!
