I went on a ghost tour before and it was super boring!! They kept talking about the architecture and what year buildings were built. Is this that type of tour?
NO! This is a ghost tour, not a history tour or a historical landmark walk. This tour strives to be entertaining and educate on the paranormal. The tour is guided by a certified paranormal investigator and/or a team member of a paranormal investigation team.
Will we see a ghost on this tour?
Greenville Ghost Tours cannot guarantee that you will see a ghost. Actually seeing a full bodied apparition is incredibly rare. Many guests on the tour have been able to pick up anomalies such as orbs, EVPs, temperature and EMF spikes.

Do you allow dogs on the tour?
Dogs are not permitted on our Spooky & Haunted Bar Crawl. As far as our regular Paranormal Walking Tour, service dogs are definitely allowed. Smaller or well behaved dogs can also come on the tour. I like dogs, but not everyone does and I want to respect guests comfort. That being said, I have a small dog I sometimes bring on the tour. Dogs can be more susceptible to sensing paranormal entities. If your dog detects an entity and is too disruptive, we may have to perform a ritual cleansing and you may have to exit the tour early.
Are there bathroom breaks?
Yes, there will be opportunities to use the restroom.
Is the tour handicap accessible?
The tour is handicap accessible. The normal tour route has stairs, but a slightly modified route eliminates all stairs without changing the tour! Please notify your tour guide and we will avoid all stairs. Terrain can be rough at times and the tour takes some abnormal routes through dark alleys.
What is your rain policy?
If it's a steady rain or thunderstorm, I'll cancel the tour and refund tickets. For intermittent drizzle, game on! Please dress appropriately and bring an umbrella if necessary.
