This is not a polite history stroll.

It’s edgy, entertaining, and designed for adults who want their ghost stories bold, a little wicked, and delivered with confidence. If you like your history dark, your humor sharp, and your hauntings served with attitude, Spirits and Scoundrels is your kind of night.
Glad we picked this tour!
Our guide Brenna was charming, knowledgeable, and fun! She took us around to about 6 different haunted sites in historic downtown. Our group size was only about 10 people so we had no problem hearing our guide or seeing the sights. We were glad we chose the late adults only tour; it felt spookier walking around late at night and without any crowds or kids. By the time the tour was done we were all a little spooked and nervous about going back to sleep in our historic AirBnB lol!

Where Does the Spirits and Scoundrels Ghost Tour Begin?
Meeting Location: Lafayette Square
Your tour meets in Lafayette Square, one of Savannah’s most beautiful and historic public squares. Surrounded by moss-draped oaks, stately homes, and the stunning Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist, Lafayette Square offers the perfect place to begin your evening in Savannah’s haunted historic district.
Please arrive a few minutes early so your guide can check everyone in before the tour begins. Your guide will meet the group inside or near the square and will be easy to identify before departure.
Lafayette Square is centrally located and walkable from many downtown hotels, restaurants, and parking areas. Because Savannah’s historic district can be busy, especially at night, we recommend giving yourself extra time to find parking and walk to the meeting point.
