Our tour guide started talking about the jail before we went inside lots of interesting facts. then we went inside and she told stories and even did some volunteer reenactments from people in your group! our tour guide Suzzane was excellent, she was very animated and told some good stories, turned off the lights, and made you jump, and cool stuff like that. The haunted jail at night is very scary i recommend doing it at 9:00-9:30 tours. Those are the tours that will really get to you! The only thing is that i was dissapointed in was that they did not take you through the entire prison. But its fun while it lasts; but the farther you go into the jail the more frightining it gets especially the dungeon/basement part. You probably will feel a feeling of satisfaction when you leave. |

My son requested the tour of the Old City Jail on our last visit to Charleston, SC. He really enjoyed it. Our tour guide, Susan B., was very personable and friendly. She told some very interesting stories. My only complaint is that she had gum in her mouth the whole time...which combined with the fact she talked very fast, it made it hard to hear everything. The tour is only about 45 minutes long. I would've liked to have seen more rooms in the jail too (we only walked into 3). For an adult, the creepy factor was low. For my 14 year old, he found it spooky. |

We had a group of 9 people to do the haunted jail tour. The ages ranged from 50 down to 9. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The history was very interesting and the guide we had was great she really added alot by the way she presented herself and explained everything. We visit Charleston every fall also and plan to do another one of the tours then. Keep up the great work. |

We all thought this tour was terrible. Many of us have been on ghost tours before that were quite entertaining. This one was neither scary nor entertaining. The stories were laughable at best. |

we had a great time on the tour. The leader was informative about the history and gave great insight to the history of the city. |
