Old City Cemetery
Old City Cemetery in Galveston is over 200 years old and is said to be one of the most unnerving sites in Texas. In that time, the cemetery has become the resting place for a menagerie of souls who bring a touch of mischief, mystique and the macabre to the island’s haunted history. You will meet “The Lady In Black” who will uncover the mysteries at the heart of Texas’ more unsettling stories.

Annette the tour guide was great! She was very informative. We toured with 8 kids and was very patient and caring to them. Not once did she get flustered from interruptions instead she played along and made the whole experience fun

Great tour guide with lots of knowledge on Galveston's history. We went at 8pm when the sun was going down and I think that was the perfect time.

A good entry level visit about the old cemetaries in Galveston. The “Lady in Black” was a vast source of knowledge.
