Your professional tour guide will share with you the history of Charleston and it's ghoulish past on this 90-minute ghost tour. After meeting your guide in downtown Charleston, your tour will start with a visit to the Historic City Market. Learn about the Gullah culture, an offshoot of the African slave trade in the 1500’s, and hear about the Gullah belief in bad spirits, also known as “boo hags”. Walk to the Wagener building to hear about the ghostly sightings of George Poirier, a wealthy cotton broker who committed suicide on the third floor of the building having lost his inheritance and his pride.

Next it's on to St Philips Church where you'll discover why the graveyard at the church is believed to be haunted by Sue Hardy Howard. Her ghostlike image was captured on camera by an unsuspecting cameraman in 1987, exactly 99 years after her child was stillborn. At Philadelphia Alley see where the “Whistling Doctor” was shot and injured in a duel with a jealous friend, an injury that eventually took his life. In Unity Alley, hear the chilling story of our country’s first serial killers, John and Lavinia Fisher.

Visit Charleston’s most haunted building, the Old Exchange Building, which is home to the Provost Dungeon and some of the world’s most notorious criminals, like the gentleman pirate Steed Bonnet. Your tour will conclude at Waterfront Park. Here you can look out over the water to Fort Sumter, and learn the tragic story of Private Daniel Hough, the only casualty of the Battle of Fort Sumter who is the “face in the flag” and whose ghost still haunts the Fort today.
