    Grab a drink and dive into the haunted underbelly of Galveston on the Haunted Pub Crawl — a spirited, adults-only tour that blends ghost stories, historical legends, and some of the island’s most notorious watering holes.

     This 90-minute walking tour is the perfect mix of fun and fright, beginning at the iconic Shearn Moody Plaza and winding through old saloons, brothels-turned-bars, and sites where the past never quite let go. Hear tales of voodoo curses, ghostly soldiers, and the infamous “Campeche Devil Dogs” said to prowl the ruins of pirate strongholds. Learn about the railroad engineer who lost his head during a showboating stunt and the flirtatious ghost who still roams the Shark Shack bar.

     Along the way, you’ll stop at some of Galveston’s best bars—where you can enjoy a drink while hearing chilling true stories of murder, mayhem, and mystery. From Civil War spirits and sea-swept coffins to haunted hotels and cursed alleyways, this tour is your ticket to Galveston’s strangest and booziest lore.

     Perfect for groups, date nights, and travelers looking for an unforgettable night on the island.
