Here at Ghost City, we take a lot of pride in visiting the MOST HAUNTED locations in Charleston
Here at Ghost City, we like pushing the envelope, offering tourists and locals alike a chance to join our Guides and journey into areas of Charleston which are not always the places where tourists dare to venture. All of the locations we visit on our Ghost Tours are carefully choosen and researched. Telling the true story about our ghosts and hauntings is the backbone of Ghost City. We don't stoop to telling stories about Vampires, Zombies, or other nonsense. However, you will hear the authentic haunted history of Charleston, our locals legends and folklore, and first-hand accounts of hauntings.
Do you need help deciding which Ghost Tour to take?
Visiting with the Family? Choose the THE GHOSTS OF LIBERTY TOUR
The Grave Tales Ghost Tour is appropriate for all ages. You and your family will be guided through the city’s streets. You’ll see the historic mansions and hear their haunting stories, stop by the cemeteries and learn of their legends, and even visit a battlefield from the Revolutionary War.
While we find that the term “scary” is a rather relatively subjective one to say the very least, the Graves Tales Ghost Tour is indeed as spooky as it is informative. Yes, history can be daunting, but our guides are always game to give you a fun and entertaining adventure in the most unique way possible, as they share with you the colorful stories that flavor Savannah with their exciting and memorable storytelling style. Graves Tales is our most popular tour, and thus sells out quickly. Be sure to book in advance.
Looking to Explore the Sinister Side of Charleston on an Adults-Only Tour? Choose the DEATH AND DEPRAVITY TOUR
The Beyond Good and Evil Tour will take you for a walk on the dark side. This 5-star haunted walking tour offers you the macabre stories of Savannah’s past, the evil that man is capable of committing and the havoc he can wreak when overcome with anger and obsessed with vengeance. You’ll also learn of the demonic entities that have said to haunt parts of the city over the years, and how these evil spirits of impacted the people of Savannah.
The paranormal forces that will be explored on The Dead of Night Tour are not your Casper the Friendly Ghost type spirits. Some of these supernatural entities that have plagued Savannah even originate from a demonic source. Those who have had encounters with these evil spirits rarely escape unscathed, so we do not tempt them in coming out from the shadows on our tours. But, you will learn of their haunting stories.
My sister and I had a fantastic time taking a ghost tour around Savannah, GA with Beyond Good and Evil Tours. Our guide was Nicodemus Hammil and he was absolutely fantastic such a character! He was super entertaining while thoroughly educating us on the history of all the sites we visited. I look forward to returning to Savannah and more ghost tours will definitely be in my future plans!
When I found the Beyond Good and Evil Tour with Nicodemus I was immediately drawn to it because I had a good feeling that the Nicodemus would be a spot on tour guide. I was 100% right! The walk he took us on was overly far and he was very well informed as well as very entertaining. He is a fantastic story teller and does his research! I'm glad that I chose his tour for a date night with my husband because he loves it just as much as I did!
We went on the "Beyond Good and Evil" tour. We couldn't have asked for a better guide then Nicodemus. With Savannah being America's most haunted city, it is a shame not to go on this tour. Nicodemus and his chilling stories of the past make you feel as if you were there. I highly recommend this tour to anyone. The experience is well worth the money. Nicodemus will not disappoint!
Frequently Asked Questions
We understand that you may have some questions about our Charleston Tours - and you don't really want to call. Below you can find the answers to some of the most commonly asked questions we get about our tours.
01. Are these Walking Tours?
ALL of our Ghost Tours are Walking Tours
Our Charleston Ghost Tours are all walking tours. Here in Charleston, we do not have the other options other cities have, like Hearse Ghost Tours, or even Trollies. If you're taking a ghost tour in Charleston, it is going to be a walking tour.
In order to actually FEEL the energy which our ghosts give off you have to be in the actual places where the haunting takes place. Some areas of the Historic District which we visit can be seriously spooky! We feel that THIS is the best way to explore the paranormally charged streets of Charleston.
- Walking Tours allow you to immerse yourself in the stories we tell
- Walking tours are much more friendly to the area - not giving off pollution or waking up the neighborhoods with their speakers
- Walking is good for you, and it s great way to walk off that amazing dinner you just had!
- On a walking tour you're not crammed into a vehicle, almost certainly squished in next to someone you'd rather not be squished up against
02. Does Ghost City offer any Groupon tickets, maybe Living Social?
Ghost City has never sold Groupon vouchers - and we never will.
We know that there are many companies in Charleston which offer their tickets for sales on Groupon. And if you're not worried about the quality of the tour you're getting - you can certainly spend some time on Groupon or Living Social and find tickets available. However, you won't see any from Ghost City.
We know that our Ghost Tours are of the highest quality, with thousands of reviews from tourists and locals who have enjoyed our tours. In addition, our tours often sell out - especially on the weekends and on Holidays. There is simply no reason why we'd sell our tours on Groupon.
Companies that sell on Groupon are taking a very substancial cut to their revenue. If their company was as good as they claim it was - they wouldn't have to sell $30 ghost tour tickets for $10 on Groupon. Even if you do not choose Ghost City - do yourself a favor and stay far away from companies who are offering their tours on Groupon.
03. Does Ghost City go into any of the locations on the tours?
Some locations allow us to come in, most don't
When we're touring Charleston, many of the locations that you'll be visiting are private residences. Obviously, they wouldn't be too happy about us simply coming into their homes with our Tour Groups. Therefore we do not go into most of the locations we visit on our tours.
04. Once I purchase tickets, can I get a refund?
All ticket sales are final
Just like any other performance, and yes our Tours are performances, we can only admit a limited number of people. This means that when you purchase your ticket we cannot give you a refund if you decide not to attend.
However, we're not a bunch of unreasonable monsters. If you have an emergency we will work with you. In addition, we also allow our guests to reschedule their tour, as long as you do it at least 24 hours in advance, and the tour you want to reschedule to has availability.
