Why Take a Ghost Tour in Annapolis?

Annapolis is one of the most haunted cities on the East Coast

Few cities have stood as long, or seen as much, as Annapolis. Three centuries as a colonial capital, a Bay seaport, and a center of naval tradition have left these streets with a deep collection of ghost stories.

Colonial taverns, the historic State House district, a working waterfront, and a long naval heritage - Annapolis's history runs dark beneath its postcard charm, and our guides know exactly where to find it.

A Colonial Capital

Annapolis has served as Maryland's capital since the 1600s, and three centuries of politics, power, and history have left it full of ghost stories.

Centuries-Old Taverns

The city's historic taverns have served sailors, statesmen, and merchants for generations, and some of their oldest patrons are said to have never left.

Chesapeake Waterfront

Annapolis grew up around its harbor, and centuries of Bay trade, storms, and hardship have left the waterfront with its share of hauntings.

A Naval Tradition

Annapolis has been tied to the sea and the Navy for generations, and the legends of those who served run deep through the town.

Preserved Colonial Streets

The historic district preserves one of the finest collections of 18th-century architecture in America, an atmospheric backdrop where the past feels very close.

Tales of Those Who Stayed

From unexplained mysteries to documented tragedies, Annapolis is full of stories of people who, many say, never truly left.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about our Annapolis ghost tours? Here is what you need to know before you join us on the streets of Maryland's haunted colonial capital.

Is Annapolis really haunted?

Annapolis is one of the most haunted cities on the East Coast. As Maryland's colonial capital and a center of commerce, politics, and naval tradition for more than three centuries, the city has gathered countless ghost stories. Its colonial taverns, historic State House district, waterfront, and the grounds tied to the Naval Academy all carry documented hauntings.

Are the ghost tours family-friendly?

Our Annapolis ghost tours are built on real history and well-documented hauntings rather than cheap scares, which makes them a good fit for older kids, teens, and adults. If you are bringing younger children, reach out and we will let you know what to expect.

How long are the tours?

Most of our Annapolis ghost tours run about 90 minutes and cover an easy walk through the colonial historic district, with plenty of stops along the way.

Are these walking tours?

They are. Our Annapolis tours move at a relaxed pace and stop often, so you can take in each location while your guide tells its story. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended, as the historic district has some cobblestones and gentle hills.

What should I wear?

Comfortable walking shoes are the main thing. Annapolis sits right on the Chesapeake, so the evening air can turn cool and breezy even in summer. We recommend bringing a light layer just in case.

Do the tours run in bad weather?

Our tours run rain or shine, so it is worth bringing an umbrella if rain is in the forecast. In the rare case of dangerous weather, we will reach out about rescheduling.

Do we go inside any of the buildings?

Our tours take place outdoors as we walk the streets of the colonial historic district. We stop in front of Annapolis's most haunted locations and share their stories, though we don't go inside private homes or businesses.

Where do the tours meet?

Our Annapolis tours meet at a central location in the historic district. The exact meeting spot is included in your booking confirmation, so you'll know exactly where to find your guide.
