The Ghostly Residents of Savannah’s Mercer Williams House: Savannah Ghost Tours Reveal the Real Story Behind Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

The Haunted History of Colonial Park Cemetery: Savannah Ghost Tours Reveal Yellow Fever Secrets
Colonial Park Cemetery holds the remains of over 10,000 souls, many victims of yellow fever epidemics that devastated Savannah. Their stories of suffering and survival echo through the Spanish moss and weathered headstones.
Haunted Sorrel-Weed House
By the time dusk settles over Madison Square, Savannah begins to exhale.
The heat that clung to brick and iron all afternoon softens. Spanish moss shifts in the slow coastal breeze. Streetlamps hum to life one by one, casting a pale glow that gathers in pools across the square’s walkways. In that filtered light, the Sorrel-Weed House stands with quiet authority, its façade composed and symmetrical, its windows reflecting a city that has learned how to keep its secrets.
It does not announce itself loudly. It does not need to.
Haunted 17Hundred90 Inn
Tucked along Savannah’s historic streets, the 17Hundred90 Inn feels less like a hotel and more like a place where time never fully moved on. Candlelit hallways, creaking floorboards, and rooms heavy with history have long fueled stories of unseen guests who never checked out. Visitors speak of whispered voices, shifting objects, and a quiet presence that lingers just out of sight, making the inn one of Savannah’s most enduring and unsettling haunted landmarks.
The Haunted Kehoe House
Built in 1892 for iron magnate William Kehoe, the Kehoe House stands as one of Savannah’s most elegant historic homes, its brick walls and ornate ironwork bearing witness to more than a century of changing lives and quiet transitions. Once a private residence and later a funeral parlor before becoming an inn, the house has long carried stories of unexplained footsteps, children’s laughter echoing in empty halls, and subtle encounters that feel less like spectacle and more like lingering memory, making it a place where Savannah’s past seems unusually close, especially after nightfall.
Haunted Madison Square
At night, Madison Square waits quietly beneath swaying Spanish moss and the glow of old street lamps, its beauty undisturbed but its atmosphere unmistakably heavy with history and presence. This is not a place of dramatic hauntings or loud apparitions, but a location where the past seems to press into the present: the earth remembers the soldiers who once trained, waited, and sometimes died here, the echoes of their footsteps lingering just beyond ordinary perception. Visitors have long shared stories of unseen figures in period attire, of footsteps where no one walks, and of low voices carried on the breeze, moments that invite reflection more than fright. Here, in this elegant public square laid out in 1837 and named for James Madison, history and memory intertwine, reminding us that some hauntings are subtle impressions of lived experience rather than spectacle.
Haunted Chippewa Square
Chippewa Square is one of Savannah’s most deceptively quiet places, a serene green space layered over centuries of violence, memory, and lingering unrest. Established in 1815 on ground once scarred by Revolutionary War bloodshed, the square is today framed by landmarks like the Savannah Theatre and Foley House Inn, both long associated with ghostly encounters. Visitors and locals alike report shadowy figures beneath the live oaks, unexplained sounds after dark, and an uneasy stillness that settles in as night falls, as if the past has never fully released its hold on this corner of the city.
Haunted Lafayette Square
Beneath the moss-draped oaks of Lafayette Square, Savannah’s elegance gives way to something quieter and more unsettling. By day it is a place of history and beauty, but after dark the square feels watchful, its brick paths lit by soft lamps and heavy shadows. Laid out in 1837 and surrounded by some of the city’s most storied homes, Lafayette Square has long been associated with unexplained sounds, sudden chills, and the lingering sense that the past has never quite left.
