Detailed itinerary

1

The Old City Jail was once home to 600 prisoners, areas for the criminally insane and violent along with an execution cell. Its no wonder the art college bailed on the structure and we're all left wondering how the private Christian school located there is doing!

2

Home to an old female orphange where 2 bank robbers learned their lesson and lost their freedoms to a ghost! One cottage overlooking the setting for a somber scene where a teenage girl considers suicide but is consoled by a concerned and all too familiar ghost.

3

A murder suicide in a childhood gives life to one of the world's most fascinating poets. Discussions include Colonial Park Cemetery, Police Precinct One and other related supernatural events that make these 2 side by side properties utterly fascinating.

4

Now known as Taylor Square for a famed nurse, situated beneath the square is one of the original black burial grounds built over as the city expanded and his home to the famously haunted Espy House and 432 Abercorn.

5
Stop 5

Famed 1750's cemetery home to colonial hangings, mass graves, and nightmarish stories of yellow fever along with heavy historical and modern use by root doctors. You'll hear about the Man in Blue apparition and more.

6
Stop 6

It's difficult to impress that one of the most haunted buildings in Savannah from a family perspective and an organizational one, is the Gordon Home but absolutely is one of the most documented haunted homes with accounts going back over 100 years.

7

Savannah's first electrified home and one of the city's most beautiful inns has a dark past with massive poltergeist accounts, an unsolved murder and significant ties to Midnight In The Garden of Good and Evil

8

This former funeral home turned high-class inn has made more than one honeymooner's stay a fairly frightful one and for some has come with a touch of omen.

9
Stop 9

From yellow fever victims to a legendary shape-shifting cat, this home smacks of rootwork and other spiritual blemishes.

10
Stop 10

This 1830s home was famously filmed by our company founder for the first episode of Ghosthunters ever filmed outside of their home state and stands as one of Savannah's most investigated properties.

11

Wright Square gave us the expression of Savannah, the city built on top of its dead as a cemetery with 300 estimated burials remaining beneath it. Historically it was the end of town as the 4th square of the eventual 24 and in colonial times is where the city jail, hanging gallows, stood over looking the early graveyard. This is where Irish sorceress, Alice Riley was famously kept and executed with plenty of early recorded accounts of her spirit inside of homes, businesses on the square.

12

This acclaimed bar, inn, was named such in 1790 before burning in the great fire of 1820. Not long after, Anna White ended her life here inside of a tragic, controlling marriage. Early developers in 1976, deal with the continual spirit phenomenon with famed demonologist couple, The Warrens of The Amityville, investigating. While many hotels latch onto pseudo claims of ghosts, there's no shortage of guests here leaving in the night and leaving their stories in the "guest registrar."
