Full description

Many find Key West a strange place during the day; but after the sun sets, the restless souls of the island’s frightful past begin to stir. On this 1-hour ghost tour, you will hear all-but-forgotten tales as you travel the dark and narrow streets of the Old Town. Pass 19th-century wooden houses that hold secret stories of former inhabitants; stories so tragic and chilling, you’ll soon see why Key West was named one of the top 10 most haunted cities in America. Learn the sinister story of creepy Count Karl Von Cosel and his dearly departed bride Elena Mesa. Hear tales of lynching, island superstitions, clandestine burials, murder and mayhem. Travel past many of the island's most haunted locations like the Marrero House, the Porter Mansion, and the Hanging Tree. Pass the former home of Robert Eugene Otto, where Robert the Doll suffered the abandonment of his lifelong companion, and his mischievous ways took a more sinister turn. Your Ghost Host will add a pinch of humor to Key West's dark side with tales of deathly love, tragic endings, scores to settle, wrongs to right and ghastly folk - some so strange it will be hard to believe they’re true…

It was a very educational, fun time!! I would do it again. Our guide was such a good story teller. Made it so exciting and never stopped to rest. He had so much passion for the job. Wish all events had people do their job so well. Thanks bartender Joe!!

We always try to do a ghost tour on most of our trips. This one was very good. We really enjoyed our tour guide - The Hooker (explanation for the name given during the tour). We were able to see a couple of sites at night that were open just for the ghost tour which were very interesting. Overall, one of the better ghost tours we've done.

We had some issues with the tour people finding our reservation but finally they let us on the trolley - tour guide did a good job but the tour was not as good as some others we have been on in other cities. We did like Tobert The Doll and the story about the man who stole the body of his dream woman into and made her into wax figure!wax figure
