Ghost Tours and Night Tours
When the sun goes down in historic St. Augustine, it’s hard not to think that there might be someone (or something) peeking at you from around the corner of that narrow, cobbled alleyway.
The nation's oldest city is bound to have dark periods in its past, evident in things like the Castillo’s wall that is riddled by executioner’s bullets and the room sealed off in the historic Flagler College dorms where Henry Flagler confined his second wife as she went insane. You will visit some of these sites on the many comprehensive ghost tours available in the downtown area.
Some ghost tours are informative, outfitting you with ghost detection equipment, while others are more dramatic, reenacting some of the twisted tales they describe. Some are on foot and others can be taken in trolleys, hearses, and even sailboats. These tours offer something to believers and nonbelievers alike as they all detail some of the most interesting aspects of St. Augustine's true history.
