Itinerary and highlights

Experience Williamsburg’s nationally recognized ghost tour. This guided walking tour will take you to the most haunted locations in Williamsburg and the College of William and Mary where you’ll learn about the history of each stop, the amazing events that happened in those locations, and the hauntings that still persist to this day.  Our tours are based on factual historic events aided by renowned psychics and investigators.

Meet your professional guide in front of Kimball Theater in Colonial Williamsburg's Merchants Square, on Duke of Gloucester Street.

Our Ghost tours walk through the Historic Colonial area of Williamsburg and throughout the tour you may witness hauntings that are commonly experienced on tours, and not simply "orbs" on cameras.

We have conducted our own interviews with former Colonial Williamsburg staff and investigate to enrich the stories you will hear on your ghost tour through the Colonial Williamsburg area and William and Mary's historic campus.

Explore the Bruton Parish Episcopal Church in Williamsburg, where the veil between the living and the dead is famously thin. This historic church, dating back to the 18th century, is renowned for its ghostly apparitions and eerie occurrences. Visitors have reported seeing shadowy figures in the pews and hearing unexplained footsteps echoing through its hallowed halls.
