Itinerary

  • N/A (Pass By)

    Known for its speakeasy origins, the Blind Tiger Pub is rumored to be frequented by spirits from Charleston's Prohibition era. Some visitors claim to have seen shadowy figures in the courtyard, a lingering presence of the pub’s clandestine past.

  • Old Exchange & Provost Dungeon (Pass By)

    This historic site is steeped in eerie tales from its time as a Revolutionary War prison. The dungeon below holds the restless spirits of prisoners, with reports of disembodied voices and sudden cold spots lingering around its exterior.

  • N/A (Pass By)

    Once a bustling apothecary, the F.W. Wagner Building is now known for its eerie happenings. Visitors have reported seeing ghostly figures in the windows and hearing phantom footsteps echoing through the halls.

  • Philadelphia Alley (Pass By)

    Known locally as "Duelers’ Alley," this narrow passageway was the site of many deadly duels. Some say the ghosts of those who lost their lives here still wander the cobblestones, seeking revenge.

  • N/A (Pass By)

    This grand hotel, which dates back to the mid-19th century, has hosted many famous guests—and a few lingering spirits. Guests and staff have reported seeing shadowy figures and hearing mysterious footsteps in the hallways.

  • N/A (Pass By)

    A popular restaurant with a haunted past, Poogan’s Porch is named after a dog who once roamed the property. However, it’s the ghost of Zoe, a former resident, who is said to still appear on the porch, searching for her sister.

We had a great time! We really enjoyed ourselves. Our guide was very informative and we learned a bit more about Charleston. It was even a little scary at times!

Great Tour of Charleston, Plus Ghost Stories Too.

Published on Aug, 2023

Our guide, Jim, did a great job. Lots of interesting stories, plus a great stroll thru Historic Charleston. Lots of fun for the whole family. We took the extended tour (additional 30 minutes) which was worth it.

Very Knowledgeable
