Spooky stories - We had a great tour with Kelly! It was a great way to spend Friday the 13th. Charleston has a long history of creepy things that have happened.

Book with Jo a hilarious and spooky time! - We loved our tour! We booked for a bachelorette trip as our bride loves all things spooky, and this tour didn’t let us down. Jo was amazing and so accommodating. We had a time mixup, and not only did she stay later so we could still tour, BUT she still gave us the best tour ever. This tour has a good mix of history and spooky stories that are fun for all ages, so definitely book your tour and ask for Jo as she was knowledgeable, hilarious, and overall amazing!

Best Ghost Tour in Charleston - Our tour guide, Kelly, was absolutely amazing! It was the best ghost tour I’ve ever been on. I loved that not only did we get true ghost stories (she has a rule to never tell you anything made up, all the origin stories are true to the best of her knowledge, absolutely loved her honesty!) but we also got a lot of history about the town and she was an amazing story teller! She also made me feel very safe on the streets and knew a lot of people (and some of the most beautiful places for bathroom pit stops too). Overall 100/10 ghost tour. Definitely a highlight of our trip

KELLY ROCKS! - KELLY WAS AMAZING!!!! She was so funny and real. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and it was worth every single penny! Could not recommend more for those who may be visiting Charleston. Started at the bar and got wine slushes on the way!! Soooooo fun! Great for anyone in their 20s. Nothing better than ghosts and alcohol ;)

10 out of 10!!!!! - KELLY IS THE GREATEST TOUR GUIDE EVER!! She was so much fun and made the history of the beautiful town of Charleston interesting! She was personable, very well spoken and just fun. She went above and beyond for our small group of 4, which made it feel like we were walking with a friend. We highly recommend doing nightmares and nightcaps and ask for KELLY!!!!

The experience was amazing and featured interesting ghost stories and a lot of fruitful Charleston history. - Kelly was an amazing guide! The experience was full of history that set the stage for the ghost stories we were told. I felt like I learned a lot about Charleston and its origins while also getting to dive into the haunted history and sightings today.
