Short Description
  • Galveston’s cemeteries aren’t just filled with the dead—they’re overflowing with stories. On the Galveston Cemetery Tour, you’ll spend 90 minutes walking among centuries of buried history inside the island’s Old City Cemetery and Trinity Episcopal Cemetery, where tragedy, superstition, and spirits all lie just beneath the surface.
  •  As the sun sets, your guide will illuminate tales of infamous murders, yellow fever outbreaks, and the devastating Great Storm of 1900. You’ll meet eccentric millionaires, Civil War generals, misguided prophets, and a mother whose tragic crimes still haunt the island. You’ll also learn about Victorian funeral rituals, mourning symbols, and the hidden truths behind the city’s layered graves—some of which rest three bodies deep.
  •  From forgotten soldiers to spectral orphans, from elegant heiresses to unsettling mass graves, this tour is a deep and eerie dive into Galveston’s past, told from the place where the island keeps its secrets: the cemetery.
  •  Bring your curiosity—and maybe a camera. You never know who might join you for a stroll after dark.
