Spooky Ghost Tours - The Original!

5.00I absolutely agree with all the stellar five-star reviews! Gin is a fantastic storyteller who genuinely brings the spooky, rich history of Galveston to vivid life. As a seasoned paranormal investigator and a professional ghost tour guide myself from NW Indiana, with over 25 years of experience leading tours, I can confidently say that Gin with Spooky Galveston provides an exceptional experience. Gin specifically came out just for my group on a cold, super windy night. She was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us a terrific, spine-tingling tour. I deeply appreciated how she often mentioned Dash, respectfully keeping his spirit alive through the compelling stories she told. You can tell immediately how deeply rooted in the community Gin is, as she seamlessly partners with many local organizations and has a deep, infectious passion for her work that genuinely shines through in every fascinating story she shares. The tour was just the right mix of eerie hauntings and fascinating history. Like me, Gin is also an established paranormal investigator and frequently partakes in local investigations. I sat and talked with her after the tour and was genuinely impressed—even captivated—with her extensive depth of knowledge, not just in the ghost stories, but also in the rich, complex history of the island itself. It's a great experience, incredibly informative, and a definite "must-do" while visiting Galveston. If you're looking for something unique and memorable to do in Galveston—whether you're intensely interested in ghost-related activities or simply general history—Gin with Spooky Galveston is highly, highly recommended!
