  • Step into the shadows of Charlotte Amalie on this unforgettable ghost walk through the haunted heart of St. Thomas. This isn’t your average tourist tale, it’s a carefully researched, locally rooted journey into the island’s eerie and often overlooked past. The Charlotte Amalie Ghost Walk is built on true stories uncovered from dusty archives, forgotten books, historic newspaper clippings, and, most importantly, firsthand accounts from the people who live and work in these centuries-old buildings today. This is the real Virgin Islands: raw, haunted, and full of secrets. Your guide will take you through narrow alleyways and over iconic Danish step streets, past shuttered windows and centuries-old walls that seem to breathe with history. Along the way, you’ll hear chilling tales of a ghost ship that brought disease and death to the harbor… and possibly left a few spirits behind. Discover why some say phantom processions still drift down the beach at dusk, and what lurks in the dark corners of the island’s oldest buildings. Stand in the shadows of Emancipation Garden, built to celebrate when Governor Peter von Scholten defied the Danish crown to declare enslaved people free. Some say the spirit of his mistress, a free woman of color, still wanders the grounds where she died. You’ll also learn the curious tale behind the famous “99 Steps”—and how werewolves, of all things, made their mark on the island’s most iconic staircase. And if you think you’ve heard it all, wait until you hear the local tales not found in guidebooks—stories passed from generation to generation, brought to life by your storyteller guide. This tour blends folklore, history, and the supernatural to give you a one-of-a-kind experience. It’s perfect for travelers who crave something deeper than souvenir shops and beach bars, something real, a little eerie, and absolutely unforgettable. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or just curious, the Charlotte Amalie Ghost Walk will show you a side of St. Thomas that few ever see. Come for the stories… stay for the chills.
