Great tour and guide - Great tour with an even better guide. Elizabeth helped to bring the city’s history alive. Even though much of the city is shiny and new, Elizabeth helped to show us what was just beneath the surface. I’ve been on many ghosts tours and I would highly recommend this one.

Great tour-excellent guide! - My daughter and I took the Beyond the Grave tour in Charlotte last night. The tour started at 7:30pm and included about 1 1/2 hour of walking around downtown. At first I was a little worried by the meeting place, on a busy corner in downtown. It did not seem very historic or spooky. However, our awesome tour guide, Laura made it all worthwhile! She was very proficient and a wonderful storyteller. She was animated and made the history interesting and fun. The stories were creepy enough, but not too scary. The walk was nice, not too strenuous. and the group was small, which made it more personal. One couple was local, and on a date night-great idea! I would definitely reccommend this tour to anyone visiting the city, and even for the locals. We learned a lot about the city and the history.

Ghosts! In the grave yard! - The Cemetery at the end was the best part. We enjoyed all the history. The route was well planned with small breaks to sit periodically.

Sounded scripted - The guide was knowledgeable but he spoke quickly and sounded very scripted. He just didn't sound that interested in what he was talking about.
