Overview

This 90-minute small-group walking tour in Charleston covers just over one mile through haunted sites including graveyards, churches, alleys, hotels, restaurants, and bars. Group sizes are limited to about 12 people to maintain an engaging atmosphere. The walk begins at the Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon, where guides recount stories of pirates from over 300 years ago still said to haunt the dungeon. The route continues past St. Michael's Church, known for reported apparitions in its churchyard, and through a site with several spirits including one four-legged entity that occasionally appears. A 15-minute stop at Gateway Walk reveals the tale of a wandering spirit waiting for her lost soulmate. The tour also visits St. Philip's Churchyard, a place linked to various ghost stories, and Philadelphia Alley, where on quiet nights visitors may hear the whistle of a doctor who died in a duel. The tour is led by a city-licensed professional guide knowledgeable in local history, architecture, and culture. Bottled water is not provided, and tips are optional.
