On our ghost walk, you'll travel the sea-sprayed Shore Path, where you might catch a glimpse of a ghost or even a sea serpent. You'll learn the history behind a variety of mysterious local incidents and expand your knowledge of the supernatural with accounts of the three major types of ghosts: residual manifestations, intelligent hauntings, and poltergeists. The weird tales include the strange goings-on at otherwise opulent lodgings like the Balance Rock Inn, the legendary Bar Harbor Club, and several other paranormal hotspots about town.

Marcus LiBrizzi, author of Ghosts of Acadia and Haunted Islands in the Gulf of Maine, two of the authoritative books on Maine's haunted tales, calls our tour "an unforgettable, spine-tingling tour of Bar Harbor’s haunted sites." Join us to discover for yourself.

The Bar Harbor Inn was the scene of contemporary ghost reports and once the site of a private club for wealthy gentlemen called The Reading Room. One of the club's members, although not really a Ghostbuster, helped pave the way for authentic parapsychological research.

We ended up being the only people so we had a personal tour with our guy Doug. It was great! Nice to also learn about the history of Bar Harbor a bit.

The tour guide (a proud Bob Ross look-alike) was knowledgeable and funny. The walk was pretty. He is a believer in ghosts and told great stories. He also included us by asking about our own other-worldly experiences and giving us many opportunities to ask questions. My 9 and 12 year old enjoyed the walk as well. (This picture shows the starting point of the tour).
Great tour!
