My wife and I really enjoyed our ghost tour with Brandon. We had a great group, very interactive and he was very knowledgeable and had great stories.
Fun history lesson about Charleston and about ghostly stories. Guide was friendly and knowledgeable.
Brandon did an excellent job giving us a ghost tour of Charleston, SC. He had a great demeanor and sense of humor that made the tour extremely fun and interesting. His knowledge of history and the city was also outstanding. I would definitely recommend it!
It was a beautiful dark night with a small crowd to take a walk through Charleston and hear many haunted tales. Brandon did a great job and is a wonderful storyteller!
Guide was very knowledgeable and thorough - brought humor and friendliness to the experience as well. Highly recommend!
Toured in 2016. Tour guide at that time conversational, leading & educating a group. This time felt leader was check marking us as her 3rd group of day. Had us on Halloween night = great opportunity to shine. She was theatrical without authentic relation to group. Couldn’t follow stories.
Great guide, he was well versed on the history of Charleston. He was also an excellent story teller and set the mood for all of his stories.
Brandon was a great tour guide. He gave great historical anecdotes and stories. The tour was very fun and informative. Would definitely recommend.
Brandon was very passionate and knowledgable about his city and not only the stops but catered to the groups questions. The small group is the way to go! Next morning our family is still talking about the different historical significant facts we learned. Fantastic.
Need to be able to walk well and in unlite areas; wear walking shoes. Brandon was knowledgeable about his subject. Not a scary event so fun for teens but not young children.
The guide looked upwards instead of at the tour group. Her explanations revealed a poor knowledge of the historical context she was referring to. We left the tour early in disgust.
Brandon was our guide and he was excellent! It was our first time in Charleston and we learned so much and the stories were so spooky!
Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and fun! We learned a lot of history while keeping the spooky vibes alive. 10/10 everyone should do this tour when they’re in the city
Great, knowledgeable guide. Loved the historical background with the ghost stories along with great personal stories too. We recommend Brandon highly!
Our tour with Brandon was great! The smaller group size made this experience so special. Not only was it easier to hear all of the stories but it was also easier to participate as a volunteer (if you’re into that). I loved hearing Brandon’s stories from other groups and seeing the evidence he had taken over the years. If you are curious about the paranormal and want something fun to do while you’re in Charleston, you have to do this tour!
Nick was very knowledgeable, fun and lively. The group size was smaller and made it easy to enjoy the tour.
We had the best time!!! Brandon knows his facts and his passion shines through in his storytelling. As a local, and a teacher, I know plenty of charleston history and yet I walked away with so much information. Will be back 100% and recommending to everyone wanting a tour!
He tells him very good stories, very entertaining personal experiences and experiences with other guests on the tours I had to keep it kind of tame because we did have a child with us, but it was still fun
It was a wonderful tour and our guide could not have been better. Both informative and ghostly at the same time. I would highly recommend this ghost tour to everyone!
The ghost tour we took was excellent! Our guide was super informative, entertaining, and gave wonderful history to go along with the ghost stories. She was very interactive and answered all questions that were asked. We will definitely be booking again on our return visit.
Great ghost tour with local history thrown in. We loved hearing all the stories involving all the local history and ghosts.
This was so interesting and fun! I would do it again in a heartbeat. Brandon was an exceptional tour guide with incredible knowledge of Charleston’s history. Definitely felt spooked in the best way!
Brandon was an amazing tour guide! For me, it was my first tour ever, and I had a blast. Brandon was very detailed and knowledgeable of the history of Charleston as well as each location we went to on the tour. He even went the extra mile and extended the tour so the group could visit an extra spot. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone and everyone!
It was great. Vannah the guide was very knowledgeable and knew a lot about each place that we visited.
Our tour guide was great! Gave good back story to each place we visited. Made sure everyone was involved.
This tour was so much fun! Brandon is a captivating storyteller. It was the perfect blend of spooky ghost stories and interesting historical facts about the city. He made everyone on the tour feel welcome and emphasized the importance of remaining respectful while sharing the stories of real people. I like how the groups are kept small so it doesn’t feel too overwhelming or crowded. 90 minutes was also the perfect amount of time for a tour like this one. I highly recommend booking with Brandon!!
The guide was articulate and organized.
Brandon did a great job. Very enthusiastic. Good, quick tour to learn about some of the history of Charleston and the spooky stories around some of the affluent families.
Brandon was incredible! amazing history and storytelling. So cool and definitely a highlight of our weekend!!
Really fun storytelling from our guide. Fun props but a lot of tours going on made it a little less spooky.I loved hearing the history of Charleston as well.
Our guide Brandon was wonderful!! Very knowledgeable and shared great stories and history Charleston! He always made sure everyone could hear and kept our group small so it felt personal. Thank you!
Great tour with Nick! Knowledgeable, fun and genuinely interested in the visitors. Also told us the story about the Whistling Doctor. We went back this morning to walk the alley and WE HEARD THE WHISTLE. Exactly he said. Great time. Highly recommend.

Nick was our small group haunted tour guide and he was hauntingly awesome😂Seriously, a mesmerizing story teller guiding us through Charleston's spooky hallowed past. We had a fun group of souls to learn about the REAL hauntings of Charleston! A spooktacular time! Five ghosts all around! ( the cemetery)
Fun and not too scary. Wanted to do something different with a friend from out of town and she loved it!
