Description

Step back into colonial America on the Ghosts of Boston tour—a 90-minute all-ages experience exploring the city’s darkest chapters, mysterious hauntings, and iconic Revolutionary War sites.

 You’ll begin your journey in one of the city’s oldest cemeteries, where mismatched tombstones and disrespected graves may be why spirits still roam. As your guide leads you through historic landmarks and eerie alleys, you’ll hear tales of public executions, legendary pirates, unmarked mass graves, and even a book bound in human skin.

 Learn the tragic story of Mary Dyer, Boston’s White Witch of the Common, and the curious case of Reverend Harris, who continued to visit the Athenaeum reading room long after death. Discover how Boston’s founders and revolutionaries made history—and how some have never truly left.

 With real historical accounts, creepy folklore, and unforgettable characters, this tour balances chilling ghost stories with deep colonial roots—leaving you with a spine-tingling new perspective on Boston.

FAQ

What should I wear?

Toggle FAQ

Comfortable shoes—no one wants to be haunted by sore feet! And dress for the weather; the ghosts don’t mind, but we’d prefer you’re comfortable while hunting for them. A sweater might help you feel a little less “chilly” on those haunted corners

Can I take photos?

Toggle FAQ

Absolutely! We encourage you to snap pics—just be ready for the possibility of a ghostly surprise in your shot (you never know). If something supernatural shows up, we’d love to see it—unless it’s just a blurry photo of your finger. 📸👻
