| Due to city restrictions, we were not allowed near certain locations on our tour - which makes it hard to get into a story when you can't even see the location the guide is telling about. Also, we were only allowed access into one graveyard. I would suggest the Ghost & Dungeon tour instead, because you get access to a graveyard AND the dungeon. |

| I loved this tour. Our tour guide, John, had been doing these tours for 15 years and was very friendly and informative. Since he is from the area it made it extremely educational since he had personal knowledge of all of the buildings, neighborhoods and graveyards covered by the tour. He stopped often enough for someone like me (with back problems) to be able to keep up. He did so without making an issue about the fact that I was starting to lag behind. He was most considerate!
I have no complaints about the tour, but it would be nice if the company would disclose that it is not just a graveyard tour. That way people will know what a treat they have in store for them as far as information regarding the areas of Charleston that the tour covers.
I cannot wait to return to Charleston to do the other tours! |

| Expected a little history and at least one good ghost story but we didn't get either. We were brought to a parking lot and then prompted to look at the grave sight of a dead dog! The stroll through the cemetary was not long enough. |

| The tour was very interesting in the facts and stories that our tour guide Stephen told us. He was very personable and kept your interest. I would highly recommend this tour. The ghosts of Poogans porch was probably my favorite, but the lady in the grave yard was eye opening as well. |

| This tour was an absolute blast! Our tour guide, Stephen, had our sides splitting. His amicable personality really added to the tour. He told the scary stories with enthusiasm and his passion for his work really showed. He was great with the children in our group as well. I have already recommended this tour to my friends who are visiting there next month~ |

| I expected to spend most of the tour in a graveyard or two peppered with ghost stories. What I got was mosty a lecture on para-normal activities and very little time in the graveyard. The tour guide was informed but spoke very quickly, often running the from one sentence to the next without so much as a pause. She seemed to push her words out. She also spent too much time shared her own personal views on life and what it means to be a human beings today.
All together it was enjoyable though less so than I would have thought. One last thing, the tour ended about 5 blocks from it's start. I thought that many in the group were a little confused about how to get back to were we started. |

| There were many good stories but I feel more ghosts of the local area could have been interjected instead of folklore, etc. |

| This tour should be described in a better manner that to say it is a graveyard tour.
There was only one graveyard entry during the whole tour and only two stories. This to me was a waste of time and money except to the fact that there where interesting facts learned. The tour guide should be local instead of a College student. |
