Galveston Ghost Tour andThe History of Horror

Ghost Tours of Galveston Island

Welcome to Galveston Island, a cemetery as big as the island! Dig deep enough and you’ll find the bones of the ghosts that haunt the world’s deadliest isle. Built in the 1800’s, the grand historic buildings have become ghost sanctuaries for its jinxed former citizens. Constantly battered by ferocious hurricanes, Mother Nature and time have tried to erase the memories of its terrorized and horror stricken victims... that were driven to a holocaust of suicide, mass liquidation, cannibalism, and Satanism. No other place in America comes close to being as haunted as Galveston! 10,000 dead in one night. Innocent souls that suffered a sudden death and now refuse to stay dead. The coffins and ashes of the improvised crematorium can’t hold them. They are dying (again and again) to meet you!

Your ghost tour guide has left no grave stone unturned to bring haunted Galveston’s fascinating history to you. Read on and descend into the darkness that permanently shrouds the island and its history.

As we move hesitantly in a tight group on our one mile tour, perplexing shadows appear and disappear as we walk in front of the great mansions. You’ll quickly grab hands as we turn corners where black cats and nerve shattering voices await to greet us. Galveston’s dead awake to remind us that their work has been left undone. Spirits whose journey into the afterlife has been blocked by a deadly tide that will ebb and flow between believers and nonbelievers alike as we walk into unspeakable terror. After this tour, YOU’LL BE SLEEPING WITH THE LIGHTS ON… IF YOU SURVIVE!

Galveston Ghost Tour Description

Galveston Ghost Tour escorts groups through the historic and haunted places on Galveston Island. We'll share stories about what it was like to be on the island at the turn of the century and exploring the ghosts that still remain after the greatest natural disaster in American history. The paranormal hunters will tell you ghost are made in three ways: sudden death, unfinished business, and demonic possession.

On September 8, 1900, 6000 souls lost their lives in one evening of Hurricane, making Galveston by definition the most haunted place in the United States.

We share the oral histories that have been pasted down for generations.

Our tours are extremely informative and full of surprises. Quite often, truth is stranger than fiction. We'll make a believer out of you!
