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 !

The tour was half-assed, we did not get to go see the railroad or the trimmer's house all we did was walk up and down the street, our tour guide Thomas was drunk and he kept on telling us he will make up ghost stories for tips, that's not something you want to hear after paying, and he kept on forgetting what he was saying he kept on asking us what did I say again and if we didn't know it he would get an attitude towards the crowd and just have a meltdown, I'm sorry it's just I expected this trip to be awesome like what the review say but it wasn't it at all

I have a meeting with Thomas this morning to we discussed the issues you have raised.I have to say it doesn't look good for Thomas . I don't know what he was thinking but if you look at his reviews normally they're five stars. again I apologize for just disappointing you I hope you'll call

Tyler is a great guide. He took us through the Strand tour, but also does all of the other tours, and knows them well too. I'm a local who scheduled this for visiting friends. I have learned quite a bit of Galveston history since moving here but Tyler added to my knowledge. The 1900 storm is the source of many ghost stories, and he provided information I'd never heard before. I won't divulge what it is, so you have to take the tour to find out.
