Itinerary

  1. Stop 1

    20 min

    A grand 19th-century hotel where elegant halls and long history inspire famous ghost stories and legends. Its glowing façade at night makes a perfect eerie stop on your walk.

  2. Granary Burying Ground

    20 min

    One of Boston’s oldest cemeteries, where weathered stones and famous names like Paul Revere and John Hancock create a powerful, atmospheric setting. It’s a must-see stop for both history and ghost-story lovers.

  3. The Cathedral Church of Saint Paul

    20 min

    This 19th-century Episcopal cathedral stands quietly over Tremont Street, its stone façade and columns giving your night walk a solemn, almost otherworldly backdrop. It adds a spiritual edge to your ghostly route.

  4. Boston Common

    20 min

    America’s oldest city park, once the scene of public executions and military drills, now a broad green space that feels very different after dark. Its paths and monuments give you plenty of places to imagine the stories your guide shares.

  5. Boston Athenaeum

    20 min

    This historic membership library looks like the classic “haunted library” from a novel, with its stately façade and long literary history. Even from outside, it adds a refined, mysterious stop to your night route. (Outside Visit)

  6. John Adams Courthouse

    20 min

    An imposing late-19th-century courthouse whose grand steps and stone arches feel especially dramatic at night. It’s a strong place to talk about trials, justice, and darker chapters of the city’s past.
