This was such a fun and insightful tour! The building has a fascinating history and Robert’s story was presented very respectfully.

Don't let the trolley take you for a ride. We're the only ghost tour in Key West where you'll walk the dark halls of historic Fort East Martello with authentic ghost-hunting equipment and meet Key West's infamous haunted doll, Robert. USA Today named us one of America's 10 Most Haunted Destinations, and Thrillist calls us "The Creepiest Place in Florida." See for yourself, but be warned: we actively engage spirits, so our hunts are not for everyone. We're family-owned by real Key West locals, and our Google satisfaction rating is 4.9. One of our owners opened the first ghost tours on the island and wrote Ghosts of Key West, Haunted Key West, and the biography of Robert the Doll. Book General Admission tickets on our site for the one-hour guided tour. Book VIP here for the two-hour ghost-hunting adventure, which includes an additional hour hunting ghosts on your own after the guided tour. There are dozens of ghost tours in Key West.

We had so much fun! Dan was a really great guide and was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic! It was so cool to explore the fort at night!

Our guide (Dave, I think) was very good. He balanced fact with fiction well, and did a good job helping the more timid participants enjoy their experience while not allowing the overly-enthusiastic ghost lovers to dominate. It was neat to see Robert the Doll in person, but overall, the tour was pretty anti-climactic.

Great place to see. The architecture is amazing and to see it alone and in the dark is very cool. The guide was very knowledgeable and made it fun and a bit creepy (well done!), and Robert is well…. Robert
