Short Description
  • Step beyond the sun-drenched beaches and tourist bars to uncover a much darker version of Key West. The Dark Side of Key West Tour is a no-holds-barred, adults-only experience that dives deep into the city’s most scandalous true stories and the ghosts left behind.
  •  This 90-minute walking tour covers everything from murdered pirates and haunted morgues to cursed dolls. You'll encounter doomed romances, twisted hauntings, and historic cemeteries where the dead refused to stay buried. Hear tales of ghostly sea captains, shadowy figures in blue dresses, and spirits that still stalk the rooms of old hotels and brothels.
