The Love Gone Wrong Ghost Tour

The Ghost of Alice Riley

The perfect example of why falling in love in Savannah can be fatal

Alice wasn't necessarily looking for love, she simply wanted a fresh start. But you know what they say, love comes when you least expect it.

Alice was on her way to the New World looking for opportunity and a fresh start. She boarded the boat with others who had the same dreams and ambitions.

Alice had arranged to become an indentured servant upon her arrival to the new colony Georgia’s first city, Savannah. And on the brutal voyage, surrounded by death and sickness, she found love.

Relationship experts today would have told Alice to hold off romance until she was in a better headspace and had earned a crazy little thing called freedom.

But as you know from your efforts to give dating advice to that one friend who just won't listen, there's no reasoning with the lovesick. Alice and Richard were in it, for better or for worse

Alice and Richard went to work for their new master, and quickly learned that things were not all rainbows and glitter under the thumb of their new boss.

Patience went out the window, and love (or lust!) drove the pair to commit a heinous crime in order to be free together.

To hear the nitty-gritty gory details of Alice and her beau’s crime, join us on our Valentine's Day Exclusive Love Gone Wrong Ghost Tour. And who knows? Alice might even show up to remind you what happens to people who fall in love in Savannah.

Be warned, she’s one pissed off ghost.

Infidelity and Suicide in Savannah

Broken hearts are easily thrown from balconies

Then there’s a woman named Matilda Sorrel, who married a rich and prominent Savannahian.

Matilda probably thought she had it made. Until it all went downhill.

Reality hit Matilda when she walked in her hubby with another woman. But his crime wasn't simply adultery. It was much, much worse.

Let’s just say learning the truth about their marriage was painful … there’s nothing like being thrown a couple stories off a balcony to learn that he’s just not that into you.

Murderous Secret Lovers

Bonus points for a kill shot

And sometimes love just doesn’t work out for either party involved. Some relationships are so toxic that no one gets out alive.

Does Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil ring a bell? It's the major motion picture that locals in Savannah simply refer to as "the movie," for putting their city on Hollywood's murder map.

It’s about the romance of Jim Williams and his lover Danny Hansford. Spoiler alert: It’s no chick-flick. One ended up dead, the other on trial for murder.

We'll spill all the details on our Savannah Love Gone Wrong Ghost Tour.

If you’re thirsty to witness a little Valentine’s Day bickering, we might get a dose of that when we stop at the Mercer-Williams House. Even in death, it seems these two are still battling to get the last word.

We've made it clear, you don't want to fall in love in Savannah.

To help you out this February, we'll do you a favor. We'll take the romantic pressure off of Valentine's Day and just give you an evening of entertainment you'll enjoy. No false promises of romance, no getting your hopes up and sleeping with your landlord instead.
