Hunt For Ghosts On A Guided Night-Time Walk In Downtown Savannah, Georgia
There are plenty of haunted places in Georgia, but few have more spooky lore surrounding them than Savannah. If you believe the stories, this historic city is full of ghosts and spirits, from angered Civil War veterans to twentieth-century murder victims. It’s no surprise that a city with such a rich history has plenty of walking tours to various landmarks, and one of the very best (and spookiest!) can be enjoyed with Sixth Sense Walking Ghost Tours. The two-hour walking tour through Savannah’s beautiful downtown district will teach you all about the legends surrounding the Hostess City. You’re sure to learn something whether you’re a first-time visitor or a born-and-raised local.
Sixth Sense has been in business for more than 20 years. The company offers both adults-only and all-ages tours.
You'll see sites like the infamous Mercer-Williams House, scene of the 1981 murder of Danny Hansford. The crime was depicted in the book and movie "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil."
Danny Hansford is not the only ghost at the Mercer-Williams House, however. If you believe the stories, there's also a young boy named Tommy Downs who fell off the home's roof in 1969. He landed on the fence and a spike had to be cut away to free his body - you can still see the missing spike today.
Sixth Sense Savannah Walking Ghost Tour offers both adults-only and all-ages tours, but an advanced reservation is required for either type of tour. Reservations can be made on Tripadvisor’s website.
