The echoes of old country tunes mix with whispers from the past, making it a haunted gem of Myrtle Beach.

The Myrtle Beach Boardwalk, a bustling attraction by day, turns eerily quiet at night, with tales of spectral figures wandering the wooden planks. Locals speak of ghostly apparitions, believed to be the spirits of those lost to the sea, returning to their favorite place. The boardwalk’s lively charm hides the haunted history that still lingers after dark.
