The Ghosts of Lafayette Square

Lafayette Square is one of the most beautiful Squares in Savannah Georgia. During the day, you can visit Lafayette Square and visit famous locations such as the Hamilton-Turner Inn, the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist and the Andrew Low House. At night, Lafayette Square takes on a new persona. On a few of our ghost tours, including the Beyond Good and Evil Tour, we'll walk you through this beautiful and haunted Square.

We have spent numerous nights in Lafayette Square, after all of the tourists head to their Hotels, when the city gets quiet. On those nights, we have conducted EVP sessions and set up full spectrum cameras in an effort to get in touch with the ghosts that haunted Lafayette Square. We have not been let down. Every night that we spent time in Lafayette Square, we recorded numerous EVPs which were recorded at a lower volume than human speech is. In other words, EVPs that could have possibly have been people talking.

We never filmed an apparition or shadow person at Lafayette Square, but that doesn't mean that nobody ever will. If you're looking for a haunted location in Savannah to try and get in touch with the ghosts of Savannah, spend some time in Lafayette Square.
