We are from Pennsylvania and were visiting our friends who live in the Orlando Florida area and decided to visit Clearwater with them for a weekend. The ghost tour looked like a good activity for a Sunday night so we signed up. Ace was our tour guide and he couldn’t have been more kind or accommodating to our group. He certainly knows his stuff when it comes to the local history and educated us on many things related to Tarpon Springs, connections to Philadelphia business people, and many other fun facts before beginning our ghost tour. It was a fun night and we would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn about the history and hear some cool paranormal stories.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you so much for joining our Tarpon Springs Ghost Tour, Eric! We’re thrilled you and your group made us part of your Clearwater weekend. Ace is a wonderful guide, and we’re glad to hear his kindness, knowledge of Tarpon Springs, and all those surprising history connections—from local legends to ties with Philadelphia—made the experience memorable.
We’re so happy you enjoyed both the haunted history and the paranormal stories. Thank you for the recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back for another Tampa Bay ghost tour the next time you’re in town!

We were really looking forward to a fun, spooky evening on Halloween, but unfortunately the tour didn’t quite meet our expectations. It leaned much more toward a history talk than a true paranormal experience, and there wasn’t much in the way of ghost hunting or investigation. The guide seemed kind, but he spent quite a bit of time talking about his own experiences and insecurities, which made it a little hard to stay engaged. My husband even decided to head out partway through.
We do appreciate the effort and passion that goes into organizing something like this, but overall it just wasn’t as exciting or interactive as we’d hoped for.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you for sharing your feedback, Krista. We’re sorry to hear the Tarpon Springs Ghost & History Tour didn’t meet your expectations. Our goal is to balance authentic haunted history with real paranormal exploration, and we understand that every guest’s experience can vary—especially when spirit activity is unpredictable. We appreciate your comments regarding the tour presentation and will review them with our team, including Ace. We’re glad you recognized his kindness and passion, and we’ll continue refining each experience to ensure guests enjoy both the storytelling and the interactive ghost-hunting elements. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope you’ll give Silent Slayer Ghost Tours another try in the future.

Too much history not enough ghost . The gùìde kept saying how nervous he was.
It was off-putting. A tour guide should be confident

It is a fun tour with easy walking and a genial guide. Could do without the constant self-deprecating remarks, however.

What a fun informative evening! History and ghosts. Our guide Ace kept us entertained and ghost energies that were present at various locations throughout the walk were pretty spooky. The walk was easy and it is pretty town. We even got to see some Manatees poking out of the water.
