Murder, Mayhem, and Scandal: 1-hour Historical Character Tour

Aperçu
*FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY-AGES 17 +*

During this one-hour walking tour, hear the darker side of 18th-Century Williamsburg. Stories of murder, mayhem, and scandal--those things talked about in taverns, back alleys, and the courts--straight from the town's citizens. Each tour will be different and the stories are a-plenty.

Due to the sensitive nature of the subjects and the salty language of the time, this tour is recommended for mature audiences 17 and older. Please note, that since every tour is different, the routes advertised may also differ.

Please note: Due to staff participation in other events, tours may be unavailable on some days. Please see our website for information.

Shades of Our Past is not affiliated with Colonial Williamsburg; therefore, this tour does not include entrance or admission into Colonial Williamsburg-owned buildings. Since the tour is through the streets of Colonial Williamsburg it is weather contingent. Please be prepared for all weather conditions.

Thank you for your kind review. We are glad you enjoyed listening to stories of the past with your guide. As novelist Richar Bausch said, "A good story needs only a good storyteller."

Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed your time with us and would be pleased to take you through the town again for more tales of murder, mayhem, and scandal. As Henry Fielding said, "Love and scandal are the best sweeteners of tea."
