Historical Haunts Memphis invites curious travelers to explore the city’s spirited side with guides who are real paranormal investigators. Named one of the country’s spookiest ghost tours by House Beautiful, their small-group walk...
Matt stands out as the star guide here, with multiple reviewers praising his friendliness, historical knowledge, and engaging storytelling. The tour combines Memphis history with ghost stories, making stops at various locations including the Marine Hospital and French Fort. Guests appreciate the mix of spooky tales and genuine historical context, with some reporting actual ghostly interactions and spirit communication technology adding to the atmosphere. The meeting point offers convenient parking and a shop worth browsing if you arrive early. Most guests leave thoroughly entertained and educated about Memphis's haunted past. However, a couple of reviewers felt disappointed that the tour didn't enter buildings or visit all advertised locations, instead viewing sites from the bus or nearby. The experience seems to vary depending on expectations. If you're looking for an engaging historical tour with supernatural elements and don't mind viewing locations from outside, this comes highly recommended by the vast majority of guests. Dress warmly in cooler months since you'll be getting on and off the bus.
My friends and I had such a great experience on the ghost tour! Katie was an amazing tour guide—friendly, personable, and incredibly informative. She did a fantastic job keeping everyone engaged while sharing fascinating historical information and creepy stories along the way. The tour was the perfect mix of history, storytelling, and spooky moments. I learned so much about the area that I never knew before, and Katie made the entire experience fun and memorable. If you’re looking for a tour that’s both entertaining and genuinely creepy, I definitely recommend this one!
