Haunted Boston Ghost Tours

Shasta_B, Nov 2025

An actual ghost tour

This was by far the best ghost tour I’ve ever been on. It was an actual ghost tour, full of real stories and a lot of history of the city. Our tour guide was incredible and knew a ton of history about the city. He was great to talk to, listen to, and ask questions to. He answered everything and hung out after the tour to swap more ghost stories. There were no weird actors popping out to scare anyone (just real honest stories).

Salem Uncovered: Dark Stories of Salem Tour

Genesis_A, Oct 2025

Amazing Experience on the Salem Uncovered Tour!

As a longtime Salem: The Podcast listener, I was so excited to finally experience the Salem Uncovered Tour in person — and it absolutely exceeded my expectations! When I arrived, I was greeted by Tim, who happens to be Jeffrey’s brother. I mentioned that I was a little sad not to have Jeffrey as my guide since I’m such a fan of the podcast, and Tim kindly told me he’d do his best to make sure I met him. Tim was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging throughout the entire tour, sharing dark and fascinating stories about Salem’s history. As we were walking we actually ran into Jeffrey, and Tim made a point to turn us around so I could officially meet him and even ask a question! I was thrilled — and got a quick photo, too! I’m so grateful to both Tim and Jeffrey for going above and beyond to make this experience special. I went with two friends who aren’t podcast listeners (yet), and they loved the tour so much that they said it was their favorite part of our trip — and now they want to start listening to Salem: The Podcast! Overall, I can’t recommend this tour enough. Whether you’re a fan of the podcast or just interested in Salem’s darker history, this is a must-do experience!

Fun, Spooky Old Boston Tour

This was a fun, historical, spooky tour of Boston! Olivia, our tour guide, kept everyone engaged, was very entertaining, and knowledgeable on all this history. Having stops at the bars provided nice walking breaks while still keeping the stories going. The walking is not a long route. Would definitely recommend for others to try it out.

Scott_B, Sep 2025

Great tour with a wide spectrum of info and entertainment

Tom and Sara were both excellent. My wife and I were the only ones on both tours so the 1st two were combined. Both guides were well versed on the area history and did a wonderful job in their storytelling. I have to say it would be nice if Annie retires to Florida to slow the traffic on I-4. LOL Definitely recommend this tour for both the history, witch and ghost peeps.
