About this activity

Who Haunts that Strand?

On our GPS navigated, spookily narrated and music infused solo walking tour you'll discover Galveston at your own pace and on your own schedule. With the built in EMF Reader in our app you can detect ghosts in the area!

Go anytime (1am? That's spooky fun!) The tour never expires. And for the price, it's the best deal in the south.

Galveston was once the largest city in Texas and one of the richest in the world. Today it’s one of the most haunted cities in the United States. You'll be guided to its most haunted spots and discover the spooky stories of those that walk in the afterlife. It’s a haunted solo adventure not to be missed. I’ll meet you at the front door of the Tremont House Hotel, that’s if you’re not yellow belly.
