What To Expect
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.
We will tour historic gravestones & call for Spirits.

5.00The Lady in Black/Annette was very passionate about the cemetery and knows the history of the City and Cemetery very well. She told wonderful histories of occupants of the site and shared many places where spirits visit, while encouraging photo apps. Loved the tour, well worth the admission fee.
