Boston “Death and Dying” Walking Ghost Tour

About this experience

Looking for a ghost tour that goes beyond the bumps in the night? Welcome to Death & Dying, Boston’s adults-only ghost tour—and easily the most spine-tingling, thought-provoking stroll through the city’s haunted past.

We’re diving headfirst into the dark side of colonial life, using Boston’s eeriest locations to explore how early Americans dealt with death, dying, and everything in between. Graveyards, ghost stories, and ghastly truths await as we pull back the veil on a time when life was short, and the afterlife loomed large.

If you're craving chills and a deeper story, this is the ghost tour that delivers both—no kids, no fluff, just history with a haunting twist.
