Great history lesson, fun ghost/hauntings facts! Guide was entertaining and informative. Made us want to learn more.
Tom_N, Jan 2026
One of the better ghost tours I've been on. The host was personal and knowledgable. There were a few points where I got genuinely creeped out, especially near the graveyards.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Thank you!!!!

Walking around Charleston in the evening was fun. Adam shared spooky stories and history of the area. But It was just ok. I've experienced much better ghost tours.
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Hello Tracy - thank you for your review!
Caroline_W, Apr 2024
Adam gave us a great tour. Very knowledgeable about the local lore and did not disappoint! Would highly recommend taking a tour with Adam.
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Thank you!!! I had a great time as well! The tours are as fun as the people who attend!

My teenage daughter liked it very much. Adam has a nice way of building up the story and narrating it with a sharp ending and move on while folks are digesting it.
It is also good that we ended our Charleston visit with this tour as we already got familiar with some historic events by then and could connect them.
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Thank you!

Adam was a fantastic Guide. Our favorite part was "Bloody Alley." Our group of 9 ranged in ages from 8 to 58. The tour was good for all ages. Our favorite part was the story about Bloody Alley and the Whistling Doctor that was shot in there and how he haunted the alley to this day by rustling the bushes and whistling as he walked up and down it. At the end of the tour, which was in Bloody Alley, Adam told us that there were two ways to leave, of course we took the way that he told us not to go for various reasons. As we were walking do the alley the bushes rustled and we heard a faint whistle and we were the only ones there.
Was it the Ghost of the WHISTLING DOCTOR, or just all 9 of our imaginations, who knows???

It was a perfect evening to learn some interesting history and hear some great Charleston ghost tales! Adam was a fantastic guide and engaging storyteller!
Dawn_M, Apr 2023
Adam told us a little history and a few ghost. Stories but we skipped several good stories due to other tour groups being in the area! That I feel is not good for the participants as we missed out ! I am from the area and brought my 13 yr old daughter who is not from the area and she was bored! She learned more from history class! He did not show much enthusiasm when telling the stories! I would not recommend this tour as I feel it was a waste of money! Also we had a family emergency for one of our guest and we did not even get an offer for a refund or even partial refund! Father was taken to hospital!
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Dawn - I'm very sorry you and your daughter didn't enjoy the tour. You are awesome people and I enjoyed your company. This tour has taken years to build, and I am obsessed with making it as entertaining, historically accurate, and spooky as I can, while maintaining the lowest ghost tour price in Charleston (competitors are $39). If there is anything I can do to make it up to you, please let me know! Have a great day!
jenmance, Apr 2023

I loved it! It wasn’t scary really, but the stories and history were really cool and give you a new outlook on the city. He’s also pretty funny and has great experience with ghost tours.
