About this experience

This is one of Maine’s most picturesque harbor towns, but behind the salty breeze and peaceful docks lurk stories long buried beneath the tide. Boothbay Harbor has seen shipwrecks, fires, betrayals, and unexplained vanishings. And tonight, we will follow the whispers. This self-guided tour will take you to haunted inns, forgotten corners, ghostly galleries, and more. We will dig up real local legends backed by fact and rooted in the chilling truths of life along the working waterfront. Here is how it works. This tour plays automatically as you walk, using your location. You can pause anytime, maybe to snap a photo or catch your breath. If you lose my voice, just follow the map. You are the blue dot, and the stops are green.
