Galveston : locations saisonnières

1000 tours later i still enjoy sharing this experience. This a 1.5 hour walking ghost tour that explores history and the paranormal of the city. I show people not only what to look for on a ghost tour, but real history and historical areas. This is a unique experience that stays with people. We typically get evidence every night. I show some of the collection of paranormal evidence I've collected over time on the tour as well. There's also lots of real history as well on our scenic walk. Other things to note: Please bring your confirmation email with a fully charged phone so you can take lots pictures. Bug spray is recommended during summer.

I’ll give you the inside scoop on the historical information of all of Galveston’s best ghost stories. The ghost tour guides take you on a grand expedition throughout Downtown Galveston and beyond while you soak in the sights and sounds of our eerie island. Even the most seasoned ghost hunter will be delighted. I’ll offer a unique, rich history on all that Galveston island is and was and why this special place is considered the most haunted city in the United States. Filled with horror, Galveston’s ghost history is unmatched with episodes of murder, suicide, cannibalism, pirates, ghosts and visions that will plague your very soul. Unworldly visions that cannot be rationally explained. The stories that you’ll hear as we venture on our 1½ hour walking Ghost Tour, past the gilded mansions and palaces are only whispered about on Galveston. People here are too afraid to open a dialog with the dead… afraid to unlock the gates of hell. We’ll unravel the horrible, scary secrets that lurk inside the ghost sanctuaries… secrets kept for the past 150 years! We have researched stacks of photographs and letters from those who won’t stay dead! We’ll dive warily into the haunted past and uncover the reasons why this unstoppable paranormal force still grips the island. Other things to note Food, drink and transportation not included. Please arrive 15 minutes before the experience begins. Children under 12 must be accompanied by adult. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and clothes, as we will be doing a lot of walking. If there is chance of inclement weather, please dress accordingly.

It all begins at a scenic spot that's a local favorite. We will get our missions and go over instructions/ground rules for the game. After a warm-up to prepare for this true sport, teams will take off to experience a wide variety of carefully curated locations throughout town. You'll drive in your car (special carless version available on request) to the various checkpoints, solving clues and accepting challenges that involve getting outside your comfort zone at each spot! Both family and dog friendly, the game alternates between the indoors and outdoors with plenty of alternative spots and free choices too! You'll send photos to your host to document your progress. You can even interact with locals who can help with clues! You won’t be able to avoid having fun, uncovering hidden gems and local secrets, making memories, laughing and learning along the way! You’ll be part of the rich culture of this dynamic city! Every turn is full of surprises, so questions in advance are welcomed! Unlock future discounts on our hunts in 20+ other cities! Great for corporate teams and other special groups too!

At the Candle Bar, you will have the opportunity to learn a new skill and create 2 unique one-of-a-kind candles. Come pull up a chair and we'll serve you a drink of your choice (red or white wine, or a local beer). Take in the beautiful aesthetics of the store and make something special for someone special...or simply just yourself. Here you can take a piece of Houston back home with you. We'll start off by teaching you the process behind making your own personal candle and the science behind building a fragrance. Then we'll walk you through building your own fragrance. Once we've completed that, we will guide you through making and pouring your own candle. While the candle is drying, feel free to shop at Forth & Nomad, or relax on our beautiful, wooden patio under our historic oak trees. Please allow up to 3 hours for your candles to dry before taking them home. You can also pick up your candles at another time. We hope to see you soon!
