The Official Ghost Tour of Galveston guides you along the island’s haunted streets, visiting grand mansions and forgotten landmarks as you hear the darker side of the city’s past. Locally owned and operated and highly rated, the tour presents stories that have been whispered for over 150 years — true accounts that still unsettle many locals today.

Along the way, expert guides will share chilling evidence to support the tales. You will see historic photos, read letters and hear eyewitness accounts attributed to people who, the guides say, never truly left. The experience is family-friendly while remaining genuinely eerie, and it’s designed to appeal to both believers and sceptics as you explore Galveston’s haunted corners.
