Our first stop is the Betsy Ross House, where the spirit of Betsy Ross herself is said to roam. Witnesses have reported seeing her ghostly figure stitching the first American flag in the dead of night. Feel the chill as you hear about the eerie happenings in this colonial home.
Stop outside Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were debated and adopted. But did you know that it's also a hotspot for paranormal activity? Many have reported hearing whispers of the Founding Fathers and the echo of footsteps in its historic halls.
Carpenter's Hall was the meeting place of the First Continental Congress, but it’s also known for its paranormal occurrences. Walk through its hallowed halls and listen to stories of ghostly figures who still attend secret meetings.
Meet Benjamin Franklin at his place of burial, where he is said to steal the pocket change of visitors and throw pennies at them!
Stop at the Bishop White House, where the spirit of Bishop William White is said to dwell. From flickering lights to mysterious footsteps, this house offers many paranormal experiences that will leave you spellbound.
This historic square is not just a serene park; it’s also a mass burial site with a spectral reputation. Learn about the ghostly apparitions and eerie sounds visitors and locals report.
Great family-friendly ghost tour with great spots! Heather was an excellent guide and took us to really cool places that during the day seem so plain, but at night, feel so spooky!
Jenn was enthusiastic about sharing her knowledge of history, which is extensive, and is a wonderful storyteller. Very engaging and fun tour! The whole experience was a real treat.
It was a good way to get learn the geography of the Historic District and gain some knowledge of the history of the city.
Heather was the best part of this experience. She was so incredibly knowledgeable. She relied on history to tell the stories and added ghost tales, some word of mouth others she experienced personally.
History and Ghost mixed together is the best combination! Fully loved it. My family enjoyed the tour even if it was pouring rain.
This tour was 0% history and 100% poorly told ghost stories. There are so many more tours out there that are better. Don’t waste your money.
This is such a fun tour! Heather told us some spooky stories and we learned SO much about the city. Highly recommend! Heather was a great tour guide!
Bruce’s passion for this city and its dark history is evident. He was engaging, funny, and very conscientious. I highly recommend!
The historical lesson along with the influence was really great to learn along with the areas and i portance of each. You will ne walking in rough terrain be prepared with a good comfortable shoe Bathrooms are sparce on the walking trail but you start near a starbucks. Group size may vary based on the season. Roads are narrow in some areas.
Guide was a little hard to hear due to the surroundings but he did a good job. There were several places with uneven walking.
Bruce was very informative and personable. He gave us little bits of Philly's history and related it to the architecture of the buildings. I loved being on a tour in the evening since it was cooler and more mysterious and with fewer people. I was a bit disappointed that we didn't get to actually go into the buildings but it certainly was enjoyable walking around outside. I was less impressed with the ghost stories and more impressed with the solid facts.
It is heavily historically oriented, which we loved! Jennifer’s delivery was dramatic and kept us involved in the stories.
Bruce was a great and knowledgeable. We heard ghost stories and history stories. Thank you for a great tour!
Had a good time walking with Robert. He was very knowledgeable of the area and haunts. Note to patrons… Ensure you are ON TIME. This is a group event - we ended up with a late start and left people behind because they were 5 blocks away. I caught two photos of something in the windows where Robert said a woman and a black cat haunted it.
Jenna jumped in at the last minute to cover for a fellow employee, and we could not have been happier! She offers a combination of historical and personal twists to the ghost tour, made it fun, and was incredibly personable. She also helped us address a couple of additional late ads to our tour, which unfortunately caused a little bit of misunderstanding at the beginning of the tour, delaying us, but she was patient and helped us to work things out on the spot so that we could get on with our tour. Really appreciate the amazing tour and her flexibility. Highly recommend- thank you Jenna!
The guide wasn’t that knowledgeable unfortunately. Felt very budget in terms of the quality of the information.
Jenna was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable. Loved that she told some ghost stories that were her own personal accounts.
Bruce was personable and knowledgeable. He even made sure my kids and I made it safely to the Patco station.
Guide was knowledgeable. Tour stopped at a few different locations and heard some great stories. Guide shared some personal stories of her past experiences working at the sites.
Our tour guide was very informative and engaged great conversations with the group.
Bruce was a wonderful tour guide. We were lucky to have a very small group on our tour and ended up getting into lots of conversations about the history of Philadelphia. The tour was enjoyable and we would absolutely do it again.
This tour was the perfect mix of ghost stories and history. It was also a great way to see Philadelphia at night. Our guide, Bruce, was fabulous and SO knowledgeable! I highly recommend this tour.
Bruce was our guide. He is very knowledgeable about the history of Philadelphia. He kept our group engaged and you can tell he has a love and respect for history.
Guide was a no show. Waited for 30-40 min only to get a refund
Very good communicator made sure we all were taken care of
It was an amazing night full of history and entertainment! Our tour guide, Jen was amazing! We were out celebrating my daughter’s birthday, which is on Valentine’s Day. She loves history and immensely enjoyed the experience.
Jennifer was great. She is entertaining and amusing. She really knows the history. We all had a great time!!
We loved this tour! Our tour guide was a local which added to the authenticity of the tour and recommendations given. Great historical stories told that brought the city to life in a different way! Appropriate length and variety of places visited. We always go on ghost tours in the different cities that we visit and this was definitely one of our favorites! Brought our two teenage boys with who both enjoyed as well.
This tour is as so fun!! We had done a daytime tour and the haunted stories at some of the areas we had been to really added to the history of the city. Our guide was knowledgeable and made the tour fun!
Bruce was great. Kept the tour fun and engaging. Was there for my wife’s birthday. She really enjoyed it. We learned a ton
Our tour guide, Jenn, was Amazing! She texted me the day before with detailed meetup info, what she’d be wearing and a reminder to go to the bathroom prior to the walk. This wasn’t a jump scare ghost tour. But if you love history and old stories, this is a tour for you! History you know, think you know and don’t know. Wear comfortable shoes! The walk is about a mile but the sidewalks and streets are old and in the dark pose a tripping hazard. I would do this tour again.
My daughter and I really enjoyed this tour! The different stops were really interesting and Bruce our guide was fantastic! He shared a lot of great ghost stories, but also gave historical backgrounds of each of the stops. Definitely recommend!
Bruce is a great tour guide! Great balance of Philadelphia history and spooky stories. Wear good walking shoes!
Bruce definitely knows his history! This tour was very knowledgeable and hit the main landmarks that I was looking forward to learning about.
Fantastic tour! Our guide, Bruce, was amazing. So knowledgeable and full of fascinating stories. We learned so much and had a great time the entire way through. He made history come alive and kept everything fun and engaging. Highly recommend!
This was one of the best ghost tours! Our guide Bruce was the best. The tour covered a lot of different areas. Not only learned about ghosts but learned about the history too.
Great walking tour the night we got into town! Got to hear great stories. See some key sites. Was wonderful
Jennifer is a born storyteller, witty and knowledgeable with perfect comedic timing. She knows her stuff and how to work her audience!
Jen was a fantastic guide, mixing humor and great storytelling as qe walked around town. We enjoyed the tour and definitely recommend!
We had three stops. Three. At each one she delivered the same fun fact: ‘Someone probably died here once.’ The only spirits we encountered were whatever was in that Big Gulp, and the only people who actually died were the members of our group… from sheer boredom. This wasn’t a ghost tour. This was an unpaid TED Talk on how not to give a tour. Save your money, buy your own Big Gulp, and walk around in circles — it’ll be scarier, cheaper, and way less depressing
Our tour guide was fantastic! You could really tell she loved what she did. Very enthusiastic and had great stories to tell!
Our tour guide Bruce was very entertaining and informative. We received fun facts as well as ghostly stories, great fun evening, that I would highly recommend.
My family than included two of my grandchildren age 5 and 14 years old. At the beginning of our tour we were approached by 2 men with a very bazaar story about a scavenger hunt and they wanted to take pictures of my granddaughter, we kept refusing, they were persistent, the tour guide then offered to take pics, instead of us. As we went along the men were following… we felt unsafe as the streets turned darker and people were more scarce. We then felt for our safety to leave the tour and return to our hotel.
Jen who was our tour guide was absolutely fantastic! The way she told the stories was so engaging with a bit of morbid humor. I loved every single second of this tour and didn’t want it to end! I learned so much! Thank you Jen!
We had an amazing time with Jenn on our tour! She was very knowledgeable and really made the stories and content very interesting and engaging. Jenn also emphasized safety and made us feel like she really cared about ours and everyone else’s experience. Highly recommend! We will be taking more tours! Josh and Dana
This is a walking tour and Philly is humid in the summer. Bring water. Probably best for ages 12 and up. Bruce, our guide, was great. Great stories about Revolutionary times.
Bruce was extremely knowledgeable, and kept the group very engaged. Knew the city very well and made sure that everybody was safe, especially pertaining to all of the walking surfaces.
Tour guide Bruce was great. History tour and ghost tour all wrapped into one. Found a few unknown things to visit and learn about. Great activity.
Guide was bad at reading cues from her audience. Kept us all standing for long periods of time on hot pavement or cobblestones. Stories lacked drama and finesse. Would've appreciated either an actual actor dressed for the part and having fun with it or an actual history buff who could have kept the guests attention and cleverly alluded to possible ghost sightings. Some of the language she employed was off putting to families with younger children and she didn't notice the looks she was given by parents on the tour. We opted to excuse ourselves over halfway through the tour. It was a waste of time and money for us.
What a great tour, learned a lot. Bruce was an excellent guide and made every stop very interesting. We learned so much, and had a lot of fun. We highly recommend taking this tour!!
