SOME OF THE HAUNTED SITES YOU’LL
SEE ON YOUR AWESOME ADVENTURE

The Normandy Inn

Only one person ever liked living at the Normandy Inn and that was the man who brought Satanism to the island. One week after construction, a young boy threw himself out of the window… AND LIVED. When asked why he did such a thing, he replied, “Something evil was going to kill me”. Now The Normandy Inn has become a pilgrimage site for those who practice voodoo, black magic, Satanism and witch craft. Many sacrificial rituals have taken place here including… A HUMAN! To this day, it is still used as a portal the hell.

Ashton Villa

The extremely wealthy eccentric Bettie Brown’s spirit is forever roaming the elegant halls of Ashton Villa. Many have seen Bettie wearing a turquoise dress and carrying a fan during lavish events held at the mansion. Even death can’t keep Betty from being the life of the party…and scare the guests half to death.

Robert Durst House

Millionaire heir Robert Durst once hid in plain sight in this shabby Galveston rental, living under an assumed name and disguising himself as a mute woman. In this house, he became the center of a gruesome true‑crime saga after his neighbor, Morris Black, was found dismembered and dumped in Galveston Bay—acts Durst admitted to, while insisting the killing itself was in self‑defense. His bizarre double life, the chilling dismemberment, and the long shadow of his missing wife Kathie have since been explored in multiple films and true‑crime projects, including the feature film “All Good Things” and the acclaimed HBO docuseries “The Jinx,” as well as various streaming and Netflix‑style investigations that cemented his infamy in pop culture.

Is this a walking tour?

Absolutely! It’s the only way to get up close and personal with all the fun to be had. The Fog will begin to morph and suddenly you’ll feel a cold breath on your neck.

About a mile with frequent stops. We stroll along at a very comfortable pace. There is safety in numbers from what lurks in the shadows. And, we have never lost anyone… yet!

Are wheelchairs or golf carts permitted?

Yes, wheelchairs are permitted. Golf carts can be tricky, but doable. This is the best tour for someone in a wheelchair.

Can we bring Fido?

Dogs are a favored guest on all of our tours.

What makes a ghost?

The paranormal researchers tell us that ghosts are formed in four ways; sudden death, demonic possession, habitual (they just don’t want to leave), or unfinished business. When the 10,000 souls died in the great hurricane of September 8th of 1900, the massive loss seems to have triggered many of the most well known incidences of paranormal activity. It is further speculated that ghosts like to live near water, who knew.

Is there parking?

Yes, there is plenty of free lighted parking on the street.

What if I don't believe in ghosts?

Whether you’re a believer, a professional ghost hunter or down right skeptic you’ll be amazed and glad you took this tour. Read our reviews and see just how many minds we’ve changed. The history alone is fascinating.

Is this the tour appropriate for children?

Yes. But we assure you, they will be afraid. We would not like for anyone to have to leave because their child does not want to ghost hunt any longer.

Do you offer military, police or fireman discounts?

Members of the MILITARY, POLICE & FIRE departments are all FREE! Thank you for all that you do. You don’t need to book a ticket. Just call 409-402-7155

Are you required to wear a mask?

You are not required to wear a mask, but you can wear one if you want. We want everybody to have a great time but also be safe. The entire tour is conducted outside in the open air so you can socially distance as far as you would like. Our tour guides speak very loudly so you’ll be able to hear them from well over six feet away. You won’t be touching anything. NO doors, seats or handrails. We won’t even touch your phone to verify reservations.

Is there a bathroom along the tour?

No. Best to be prepared before the tour starts.

What if it rains?

Wear a raincoat and bring an umbrella. We’re like the post office, rain or shine, nothing keeps us from our appointed rounds. But if it’s really pouring, you can reschedule, or we’ll be happy to refund your money in full. No questions asked.
