Is this a Ghost Tour where we go into Haunted Places?

Our tours take you to the most haunted locations in Galveston, where we share the dark history and paranormal stories of each site.

Can I bring my pet on the tour?

Well-behaved, leashed pets are welcome on most of our outdoor walking tours! However, they're not permitted on our Haunted Pub Crawl tours due to venue restrictions. Please keep in mind that some pets may be sensitive to paranormal activity - we've seen some interesting reactions!
