The cemetery was easy to find and there was ample free parking. It was a very fun experience and the guide was knowledgeable and personable. We will be looking into other tours in this area. Great experience!

    Graveyard Tour in mystic

    It was an exciting experience. The stories were fun to listen to and graveyard was fun to explore. We liked that this was conducted at night during the Halloween period.

    So much fun!

    Disappointed

    Steven_S, Jul 2025
    It was not like any ghost tour I’ve done before. Stayed in a tiny graveyard surrounded by developed businesses. Got eaten alive by mosquitoes, hard to see, rushed through things. We were disappointed.

    Response from Host, Jul 2025

    Hi Steven, Thank you for joining us and for taking the time to share your feedback. It sounds like there may have been some confusion about the type of tour you selected. Our Downtown Mystic Ghost Tour is our classic one-mile walking tour through town, while our Graveyard Tour is a more immersive haunted history experience set in a colonial-era burial ground. As a centuries-old site, it naturally lacks modern amenities, and its location within a commercial setting is unfortunately beyond our control. We also encourage all guests to bring bug spray during the summer months, as the cemetery’s proximity to the Mystic River can attract seasonal pests. Our tours typically run about an hour and 45 minutes to provide a thorough and engaging experience, and we’re sorry to hear it wasn’t quite what you were looking for. We appreciate your feedback and wish you many happy haunts ahead!

    Good tour

    It was a very well delivered history. I enjoyed the humor thrown in as well. If we are able to come back we will definitely do the in town tour to learn more.

    Good ghostly history. Keeps you on your toes. Very excellent tour guide who knew the spooky history of mystic area.

    Well worth it

    Jennifer_T, May 2025
    The guide was in costume with a lantern, he kept to character, was very knowledgeable in the history and helpful with questions and a spare umbrella. Some jokes were campy, but I love that. The stories were great and engaging. Family friendly, if your kids can obey the rules to not touch. It was kind of spooky and two people thought they felt touches and one caught a white image on camera. We tried to find a source and explain it, but couldn't.

    I enjoyed the historical references and stories. The guide Kim was engaging and fun and very well versed in the local Mystic culture.

    Graveyards and ghosts oh my!! 👻

    Yolanta_R, Oct 2024
    I really enjoyed the enthusiasm of our guide, Kim. She brought history alive (pun intended) in kind of a "dead" place, lol. It was fun to go in a big group and learn about the families buried there. I'd recommend it!

    Best Ghost Tour ever!

    Charles_M, Sep 2024
    What a great Friday the 13th! Kim was knowledgeable and captivating. Learning about the different families that still haunt the grounds at night with bats flying around makes the experience realistic. We highly recommend this tour if you want to see real ghost.

    Kimberly was an excellent guide. Lots of spooky ghost stories for the paranormal afficiandos among us and plenty of good historical lore on the area for the history buffs. Would love more time for our own exploration of the graveyard. A highlight of our weekend in Mystic for sure!

    Kim was a fantastic tour guide! Story telling was very involved, and having a smaller group to tour with was awesome. This was our favorite thing we did on our vacation, thoroughly recommend! Good for ghost believers and history lovers. Recommended to bring your own flashlight too.
