In a day and age when it has become increasingly difficult to capture and hold the interest of listeners, it’s an invaluable gift to be able to achieve this, especially with content that some find dull and uninteresting. And that’s exactly what Charleston Pirate Tours is doing through the ultimate nighttime adventure in South Carolina: a Ghost and Pirate Tour.
Meet Eric and Sabrina, and Captain Bob and Doozer the Diva!
Eric and Sabrina are your Charleston Pirate Tours tour guides and are accompanied on some tours by Captain Bob and Doozer the Diva. Pictured above, Eric is standing in White Point Gardens next to the monument commemorating the spot where pirates were executed in 1718 and 1719.
The nighttime Ghost and Pirate Tour is just one of several tours offered by Charleston Pirate Tours.
The Charleston City Jail is said to be haunted by "Charleston's most famous ghost," Lavinia Fisher.
She and her husband, John, were held at this jail in the 1800s pending execution by hanging.
Eric believes Philadelphia Alley to be the most haunted street in Charleston. He even had an eerie encounter there!
These are just a few examples of some of the types of stories you will hear on this tour. With more than 300 years of history including the Colonial Period, the Revolution, and the Civil War, Charleston has a vast collection of true pirate and ghost stories based on historic events.
It's a walking tour, so be sure to wear comfortable attire. (There will be some opportunities to sit and rest.)
As you can see, Eric and Sabrina dress in apparel from the period for the tour.
They have won numerous TripAdvisor awards and have been featured on major news networks such as The Today Show, The Travel Channel, NRP, and more! Their tours are well-loved, a favorite of many area visitors, and they are known for being excellent storytellers.
Charleston Pirate Tours offers the only children's tour in Charleston and also offers virtual tours so that any who are unable to travel can still experience a private tour with a personal guide. It also offers entertainment for events and pirate parties.
Visit the Charleston Pirate Tours website and the Charleston Pirate Tours Facebook page for all the details, updates, and to book your tour or event! For another pirate adventure, dine at a pirate-themed restaurant in South Carolina.
