This was definitely a good tour. My nephew, 12, really had a great time despite getting a little bit scared during this tour. I would definitely recommend this to anyone that's looking to get to see a bit of Charleston at night and hear some about the history of the ghosts of Charleston. It was a lot of fun. |

Delve into history but don't expect to be scared

This was a great tour of Charlston's scariest areas but if you are looking for a tour that actually puts you in the middle of it this is not for you. The dungeon was the only place we went to that actually puts you in the middle of the action and was quite creepy to have those figures looking at you. Other than that it was a history tour with a guide that was less than exciting, possiable because of his advanced age. I am sure with a different guide it would have been much more enjoyable but even then you are not taken into the buildings or cemetaries to completely delve into the experience but must stand or sit outside while your guide shares the stories with you. Obviously, if you get a bad guide as we did your experience will be worse. |

This tour was informational, entertaining and fun.
I would suggest taking a camera on this tour. Fortunately I took one. It was recommended that we keep snapping pictures. As a result I have several pictures with very interesting orbs in them. This tour helped to demonstrate the paranormal activity in Charleston without being too sensational. |

Good information, but a bit long-winded...

The tour had lots of good information, but Jim talked more about history (which is great, but we had taken another tour for that earlier in the day) than about the ghosts and more supernatural aspects of Charleston. While we appreciated his thoroughness, the tour was supposed to be an hour and a half, and ended up at two and a half hours in the 50-degree cold. Again, didn't dislike the tour, but it could have been done better with a bit more of a flair for the dramatic. |

I really enjoyed this tour because the tour guide knew his material. He let us know a lot about Charleston's history. I enjoyed the dungeon tour because our guide let us see some pictures that were taken there with some pictures of orbs and ghosts. My boyfriend also enjoyed it more than he thought he would. We also visited a graveyard which had meny creepy stories behind it. With the tour guide enthusiastic it made this experience fun and it made me want to capture many pictures. And I did get lots of pictures of orbs. |

I took other tours while in Charleston and this was the best. Our tour guide was very informative and entertaining. I think he provided more history in one tour than most history classes do in a year. He explained about taking pictures and what to look for in our media to provide proof of ghosts. I can't explain it but I saw it. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone planning a trip to Charleston. |

The tour was something my wife and I wanted to try out during our honeymoon and it was well worth our time. We got to learn a lot about the history of Charleston, and also about those that might still haunt certain places given the city's rich history. It wasn't some cheesy ghost hunt, but rather a historical look at the city's past. Definitely enjoyed our time!! |
