Just went on the annapolis ghost tour, and it was ok. granted it poured for the first 40 minutes or so, and since it's rain or shine..... we were prepared with jackets and unbrella, but due to the weather, didn't actually cover as much annapolis cobble stone as i would have liked. we holed up at the church and learned about other sites we should have been stopping to see. but oh well, can't control mother nature. the rain did let up eventually. I think maybe i expected more....more spooky stories, maybe more history, maybe just more of both. and our guide, while entertaining, didn't really keep my attention, wasn't as perhaps as dramatic as I expected, didn't really enthrall. it was as if her presentation was a bit unrehearsed, disjointed....could have been the big rain drops falling on her head, who knows. yeah, so, it was ok

not so great

The tour was crowded so it was really hard to hear the tour guide. We did not actually go into the places that are haunted and felt it was more of a walking history tour with some alleged ghost stories thrown in. The guide was very nice but we felt the tour was a bit boring and looked forward to it ending.

My wife and I lived in Annpolis for 8 years before moving away only to return back to Naptown, we had never gone on the tour when we lived here and thought it would be exciting do a "tourist" night and we loved it they took us to spots in Annapolis that really surprised me and also it gives me something to talk about when we have guest. I recommend going and will probably go again with company sometime.

Fun Evening

An enjoyable way to spend the evening. We were fortunate in the weather, Our guide was knowlegeable and fun. There were children in the group and she did a nice job of cleaning up some of the stories while still conveying the information. And someone provided an actual black cat to approach our group at one stop! It looked for some petting before it strutted off. Walking in unfamiliar areas at night is much more comfortable with a group. I would like more history - but that's a different tour.

I attended with the Saint Nicholas Lutheran Church women's group and must say, I really enjoyed myself. I was a bit apprehensive at first but I truly loved the stories from the past! I would highly recommend this event. I would like to try the pub crawl with my husband soon!!!

It was very interesting and very informative. We had a great time and then visited some of the locations on the tour afterward to try to have a ghostly experience. We had a great time and highly recommend it to anyone from Annapolis or just visiting.

A great way to learn about History

The oral tradition of telling stories is a great medium for learning about the daily life of people from another century. The ghost stories provide food for thought as well as insight into the struggles of individual people. Our tour guide showed great interest and enthusiasm for the stories. The only "down" side of the tour was that our group was rather large and it was sometimes hard to hear everything that the guide was saying. The busy night life of Annapolis does distract at times, also. Overall, I would say that the ghost tour is a must if you are at all interested in Annapolis and its beginnings.

Really a lot of fun

This is an excellent addition to a general tour of Annapolis. Our tour guide was a font of information and add a lot of color to the center tour of Annapolis. And a special highlight was the appearance of a black cat which sat in the middle of the intersection and stared at us for several minutes. I asked our guide if this was part of the tour. She said no but it did add a somewhat spooky flavor to the experience.

WELL WORTH IT!!!

If you are into history and being a little scared, this event was great! Our tour leader was entertaining and extremely knowledgeable! I suggest taking the early tour and then grab a bite to eat in one of the places you learn about on the walk!
