  • Alexis was an awesome story teller and tour guide! I was not expecting such a chilling experience, and I am so happy it turned out that way! I was even a little scared! This was my first ghost tour in St. Augustine I am so glad it turned out the way that it did!

  • We went on the “telling elegies” ghost tour with Persephone as part of a bachelorette party on 10/30/2026. We enjoyed the light stroll through St Augustine and listening to the stories about the local ghosts that are still present. The Bride and the ghouls loved the tour, thank you Persephone.

  • Michael was fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable! We had a great time learning about the history of St. Augustine on the night before Halloween, which made it even better! He probably killed it in history class :) We had a fun little quiz at the end of his tour and everyone got a prize. 10/10 would recommend!

  • Enjoyed learning new things about Saint Augustine as I am an area resident and like historical experiences. Would have enjoyed seeing more, but the weather kept us from going to all the sites that I believe we were scheduled to make. Plus, it wasn't as spooky as I was hoping it would be. Still, a very nice experience.
