Our Original Ghost Walk takes travelers through the historic downtown Mystic landscape, guests will become immersed in the dark, sordid and supernatural history of New England’s famous seafaring village. From 17th century strife of colonial life amidst the Pequot Wars and the King Phillip’s war to mysterious turn of the century murders, Mystic’s history was founded in darkness. As the centuries grew, lost seafarers, creepy cryptids, and scandalous happenings took place in our quaint seaside community.
Hear tales of Revolutionary heroes, industrial revolution hot spots, and Union soldiers of the Civil War still seen in their spectral form all on our Downtown Mystic tour. Our Downtown Mystic tour takes guests from the 17th through 20th centuries in old Mystic with true terrifying tales from our hidden archives and remarkable history amid legends and lore.

5.00Lots of walking, no hills, flat surfaces in the town. About one mile of walking and stopping to hear about ghosts.
Lot of fun!

5.00This was my second haunted tour but my girlfriend has been on about a dozen. We both agreed that this tour was excellent! Our tour guide, Kim, was a wonderful story teller… super knowledgeable and funny. We learned a lot and got the creeps (the best kind) a few times. We had no idea the town had the kind of history it did and she brought it to life. We highly recommend this tour… and highly recommend Kim!
great

5.00We went on a rainy day at 4pm. Small group of 7 people. Our tour guide AJ was great. He was entertaining and enthusiastic about the stories. The tour was about 2 hours long. Fittingly, when the tour ended, my group spent half an hour being lost and trying to find the car as the rain came down heavier. In our attempts to retrace our steps, we passed by Anthony J three times. It was almost spooky.
Interesting Mystic Tour

5.00My friend and I booked this tour on our first night in Mystic and we had an excellent time getting to know the town and its dark history. Our amazing guide, Kim, kept us entertained and captivated throughout the entire 1 hr, 45 min length of the tour and even showed us photos of ghost sightings afterwards. We had an awesome experience and hope to come back during the warmer months!
