Welcome to Richmond Ghost Tours' exploration of the city's haunted past as the second-largest slave market in the United States and the Confederate capital during the Civil War. Richmond is home to some terrifying ghost stories as well as an interesting past.
With an hour or 90 minutes of easy, accessible walking, let our educated local guides lead you on an adventure in Shockoe Bottom and Church Hill to 8 or 12 locations. We advise all of our visitors to be vigilant throughout the walking tour because you never know when a ghost can be spotted! We are the top-rated, spookiest, and most real ghost tour online! For a genuinely terrifying encounter, we offer chilling tales that are rarely spoken!
For a hint of what 18th century Richmond might have looked like there are few better places to examine than the unusual Adam Craig House. The oldest frame house in Richmond is also one of the most haunted. Hear the story of the spirit of the Southside Killer and the unfortunate events and haunts connected.
Completed in 1873, building this 4,000 foot-long Church Hill Tunnel proved problematic, resulting in tragic death and subsequent hauntings. Hear horrific tales of the lost spirits here.
Overlooking the city, walking through the Jefferson Park sometimes makes people forget what comes out at night. Sometimes, what sounds like a revving car followed by “whoops” and yells zooms by…but there is no car or any humans to be seen. Whispers are that it is the Briley brothers, riding back and forth around the park, looking for more crimes of opportunity in death as they had done in life.
