Visite à pied audioguidée des fantômes de Boston

Aperçu
Traverse Boston’s oldest neighborhoods and hear about the lost souls still trapped within—from the poor, perpetually burning victims of a gas explosion in Boylston Station to a spectral woman in the Boston Common who tries to convince children to follow her into the dark. Walk through uneasy graveyards where the bodies have been moved, dug up, or lost altogether, and learn the stories of their unquiet dead.

15
Boylston Street
Your ghostly tour through Boston begins at Boylston Street Station, an unassuming landmark with a seriously dark past. When workers were digging to build this station, they encountered tons of bodies buried in unmarked graves. Afterward, things began to go terribly, sometimes lethally wrong on the worksite.
16
Central Burying Ground
The Central Burying Ground is where all those unmarked bodies from Boylston Street Station were moved, but it's also the final resting place of Boston's undesirable dead, like British soldiers. Almost everyone who ventures through this graveyard reports a deep and inexplicable feeling of unease, like something terrible is about to happen...
17
Boston Common
The Boston Common may appear to be little more than a pleasant park in the heart of the city, but it has been the site of some deeply unsavory things in its long history. In the 1600s and 1700s, the city used an old elm here to hang convicts. Some say their spirits never left the park, including one woman who is said to prowl the park after nightfall, looking for lost children.
18
Boston Athenaeum
Though beautiful on the outside, there's some major ugliness hidden within the Boston Athenaeum. Among the collection here is a book bound in human skin. The Athenaeum also reportedly houses the ghost of a Harvard librarian, spotted by none other than author Nathaniel Hawthorne.
19
Granary Burying Ground
The Granary Burying Ground, founded in 1660, is among the city's oldest cemeteries. It holds the graves of famous revolutionaries, as well as thousands of unmarked graves. In the 1800s, the graveyard was rearranged to make it more aesthetically pleasing, but some suggest the disruption only angered those residents who have no gravestones to mark their final resting place.
20
King's Chapel Burying Ground
King's Chapel Burying Ground is even older than the Granary Burying Ground. In fact, established in 1630, it's the oldest graveyard in the entire city. If you believe the local legends, they tell of a man who was buried alive here. Sometimes, at night, visitors say they still hear him scratching at his coffin.
21
Old State House
The majestic Old State House was built all the way back in 1713, but it isn't haunted in the traditional way. Instead, it houses what some call a cursed artifact. That artifact? A figurehead which may or may not have been responsible for more than one shipwreck.
22
Boston Massacre Site
A circle of granite markers designate the site of the Boston Massacre. Here, in 1770, five men were gunned down by British soldiers during a protest. They became heroes of the American cause, but at great cost. Late at night, some people report hearing a man crying out in pain from this very spot.
23
Old North Church & Historic Site
One of the most important historical sites in Boston, the Old North Church is where Paul Revere famously asked for a lantern signal to notify him of the coming British: "One if by land, two if by sea." It also happens to sit atop a crypt populated by the dead... and those dead seem at times to be of the restless sort.
24
Copp's Hill Burying Ground
Copp's Hill Burying Ground, the last stop on your tour, was the burial site for Boston's everyday citizens. While ghost sightings are rare here, most visitors report feeling deeply uneasy for reasons they can't explain. Your tour concludes here, but there's much more to Boston and more optional stops for those who would like to keep touring.
25
Emerson Colonial Theater
The historic Emerson Colonial Theatre, Boston’s oldest continually operating theater and a stage for legendary Broadway premieres.
26
USS Constitution Museum
Explore the USS Constitution Museum, where history comes alive through exhibits about “Old Ironsides” and her heroic naval legacy.

It was an absolute thrill from start to finish. As an avid fan of supernatural tales and history, this unique adventure exceeded all my expectations. Every stop on the itinerary was captivating and filled with suspense. I appreciated the variety of stories, ensuring that there was something for everyone, regardless of their prior knowledge of Boston's haunted past. It allowed me to explore at my own pace, pause to take in the surroundings, and even revisit certain spots that intrigued me the most. The flexibility to embark on this adventure whenever I wanted made it an ideal option for solo travelers or those seeking a unique experience with friends or family. Highly recommended!!
