I went on this tour with three local friends. We all enjoyed our tour immensely. Adam was friendly and knowledgeable. We all enjoyed the detailed ghost stories and some of us even came back to check out the places in the daytime. I highly recommend this tour for both locals and visitors.

Itinerary
Poogans Porch is Charleston's most haunted restaurant. It opened up in 1976 as a restaurant and that's when the ghost stories started coming.
This beautiful cobblestone road is one of the oldest in the city. It was laid out in 1680 and it has a lot of dark history behind it. We talk about the various wars fought in Charleston, the enslavement of people, hurricanes, fires and floods...all of which have seem to have left some ghosts in the area.
We pass by this beautiful and historic building on our tour.
Built in the 1750's I tell a famous ghost story outside of the old courthouse which is located on the corner of Broad Street and Meeting Street
We stop by the oldest graveyard in the city to look at a ghost photo and talk about being buried alive in graves.
We do our final 2 ghost stories by the graveyard and cemetery of the historic St Philip's Church.

Tour guide was licensed historian very knowledgeable.Next trip to Charleston interested in his history tour.
Fun tour and learned a lot. Adam was really knowledgeable and made for an easy and fun tour.
Adam was so knowledgeable in so many different areas of Charleston. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. We liked that he shared pictures of different stories he would share
Walking on flat surfaces for about 90 minutes. Not too scary, lots of fun history and interesting sites.
A down to earth dude that mixed history and haunts! We really liked his style and enjoyed the things he showed us.
Adam did a great job. He’s very knowledgeable about Charleston history, both spooky and not. Good price too
We’ve done multiple ghost tours in Charleston and Adam was bar far the best guide we’ve had. We are history buffs and loved how incorporated so much history with the tour.
Perfect length, good mix of local lore and actual history, engaging guide.
Adam is a historian and even in his ghost tour it shows. We were looking for a tour that would be informative and entertaining without being gimmicky and we found it.
We had a great time our our dark history tour. We obviously learned about some of the famous ghosts and dark history of Charleston, but also learned some just general history tidbits about the city as well. The tour wasn't overly scary, so it would be fine for kids and adults. The photos of the jail and Boo Hag story at the end were definitely creepy though. Maybe plan to stay up for a bit after the tour and not (try to) go right to sleep after the tour.
Adam is the best!! So full of information So very interesting and has great stories. Do not miss taking a tour with him
This was my second time booking this tour with Adam, and it was just as enjoyable as the first! The content of the ghost tour is great, but he's a historian, too, so you can ask bonus questions about Charleston.
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Adam, he was very friendly, funny, and knowledgeable about Charleston’s history. We would highly recommend this tour.
Adam was insanely knowledgeable about the history of Charleston AND had some creepy stories to tell! Definitely recommend if you want to learn more about the dark history of CHS. We want to do more tours with Adam!
Adam was great for answering questions and had a deep knowledge of Charleston and the ghosts that haunt it. His stories ranged from fun to terrifying. We had our pre teen children with us and they had a great time and weren't overly frightened from any of the stories but did get the creeps, which is what we were aiming for.
It wasn't a very long (in duration or distance) tour, but I feel like it hit all of the high points and left us with a desire to seek out more information on certain things during our stay. Didn't stray into the questionable tall tales some tours do - stuck to the well documented, confirmed stories.
An enjoyable and informative evening! Our guide was excellent . Loved the pictures as well as the stories
Adam was fantastic!! So knowledgeable and gave history information as well as ghost stories!! Cannot recommend enough
Highly recommended! Tour was well structured and very organized from beginning to end. Adam our guide, was amazing throughout the entire tour.
Adam was very friendly and knowledgeable and we felt comfortable enough to ask questions. The tour wasn’t too long and the ambiance was very pleasing. The stories he told were very picturesque.
My adult daughter and I did this tour last night and had a great time. We have taken lots of Charleston ghost tours over the past 15 years and this one was one of the best. Adam was very knowledgeable and a great storyteller without being overly dramatic. He had photos of a few of the places that he talked about and one of them was terrifying because we had experienced something similar in the same place last summer. Adam was a stand out guide for the many years I’ve been doing ghost tours in Charleston!
Spooky and spectacular! Adam was a great tour guide, showing us some of the spookiest areas of downtown Charleston and telling great stories (with photos!). He was kind and considerate, and a very knowledgeable tour guide with tons of experience. Thank you for a really fun and unique birthday experience, Adam! Highly recommend for groups, couples, and families. He knows his stuff!
Adam was Fun with good stories of Charleston history & ghosts. It wasn’t too much walking & thunder & windy night added fun vibes.
Great guide, very entertaining and friendly. Extremely informative. Some great ghost stories and Charleston history.
We love taking ghost tours whenever friends or family visit Charleston, usually making an evening of it with dinner and a tour. We’ve been on quite a few over the years, and our tour with Adam Moore was by far the best! Adam was incredibly knowledgeable and did a wonderful job blending Charleston history with the ghost stories. Even as locals, we learned several things we had never heard before. The entire tour was interesting, engaging, and thoroughly enjoyable. We would absolutely recommend Adam’s tour to locals and visitors alike. Five stars!
Adam was great! Very knowledgable, funny, and entertaining. Even my family that are locals enjoyed learning the history of their city.
If you enjoy a good mix of history and storytelling Adam is definitely the guide for you. He has such a vast knowledge of all of the history involved in this town and that makes the storytelling even better. It’s always better when you can tell someone loved what they do!
Great for a family! The tour guide was very informative and answered questions. He was a great story teller!
My husband and I had a wonderful time walking around learning some of the history and how the ghost stories tie in. LOVED IT! Adam does a fantastic job and we look forward to another one when we return.
We had a group ranging from age 82 to age 12 and Adam’s stories of Charleston history and pace of the tour were enjoyed by all. The combination of ghost stories and Charleston history made this a learning and spooky experience! If you’re looking to go into graveyards and cemeteries, this is likely not the experience for you- but if you’re hoping to experience a more realistic and informative ghost tour that speaks to all, please choose this!
Really enjoyed the experience with Adam as our guide. He was really knowledgeable about the history of Charleston and we particularly liked the fact that we got a good dose of history intertwined throughout the tour. Wish we could have walked thru some of the cemeteries instead of just looking thru or over the bars of the gates, but I understand why that is not possible.
Adam was not only extremely knowledgeable about Charleston ghost stories but also the history of the city as well. We had so much fun, I highly recommend!
Awesome, Adam was really informative about the history of Charleston and all the creepy history of it... Would definitely do it again if we ever go back
The tour was an easy walk, nothing strenuous. We enjoyed hearing some of the history of the city, as well as a few ghost stories. There were no jump scares, which was good for my family.
We had a great time! The guide knew so much interesting history and the ghost stories were so good. The walk was easy and he kept an easy pace. I would definitely do another tour with him.
Very fun!! Adam was very informative and made the trip interesting. It was an easy walk and we got some really cool pictures.
The walk was not strenuous. Adam was punctual, his stories interesting.
We greatly enjoyed our tour with Adam. He was very knowledgable! It was a perfect mixture of history and ghost stories! 5 stars!
Adam was fantastic and so knowledgeable about Charleston history and ghost stories!
Very knowledgeable guide. Would book with him again.
Adam was very fun and knowledgeable, even for some of the older guest who walked slow he made she not leave or make them feel rushed in anyway. I 100 percent recommend this tour and we will book again with Adam for one of his history tours. I'll also add this tour was dog friendl!
Fun, interesting, scarey and awesome history! Adam was a great tour guide. Only do a ghost tour with him.
It was very interesting and entertaining. Enjoyed all the historical info. Some walking involved, wish we could have gone in the buildings or grave yards.
Adam has a Weath of historical information. He has the gift of storytelling and adds the background information that keeps your interest.
My mother and I really enjoyed Adam’s tour. It was small group, which we liked, and Adam was super friendly and knowledgeable!
Adam was great and very knowledgeable on local history! We had a great time, and hope to return for a history tour.
Good experience and family friendly.
Adam was very knowledgeable and personable. The tour was just the right length. You could stay afterwards if you wanted to ask more questions, etc.
