I really was expecting a tour of like jump, scares, and stuff like that, but I was pleasantly surprised that it was based on historical facts and historical monuments and mild status from the island. I will go to more of these to when I go back. this was a really great time.

Bought tickets on viator the afternoon of the tour. Showed up to designated location and time and no one was there. Called the number of vendors that was provided in confirmation email. Was told the tour was canceled because no one signed up. Fortunately, the vendor refunded us. If I were you I'd book tickets directly with vendor instead of with third party

Kevin was a great tour guide! We learned so much about the history of Galveston and the ghosts that haunt it. We lots of fun reviewing photos we took to see if we could see any spirits of our own.
