In downtown Dothan you will join a guided walk that explores the city’s history and character. As you move through the charming streets, you’ll hear stories of the post‑antebellum South, early settlers and notable residents. The area’s beautiful, breath‑taking architecture will be a constant companion, though you’ll be asked to look closer — the façades often belie a very dark past.

Along the way the guide will point out sites and share tales that range from historical to unsettling. Some stops are kept secret to preserve the surprise, so you won’t be given a full itinerary in advance. Even the most pragmatic guests are likely to find parts of the tour disturbing. If you’re interested in the paranormal or ghost hunting, expect a wilder experience than a standard history walk. Stay with the group and you will be perfectly safe; do not stray.
