(Public, Small-Group) Tipsy Tombstone Tour

Service Description

Why choose between a haunted history walk & a haunted pub experience when you can enjoy both? The Tipsy Tombstone Tour by History, Haunts, & Hahas! combines approximately one mile of walking with a carefully selected stop inside a historic Charleston bar where the stories continue over an optional drink. Unlike traditional pub crawls where the focus is simply moving from bar to bar, this experience unfolds in three engaging chapters: 👣 30 min exploring Charleston's reported hauntings and the history behind them 🍻 30 min inside a historic and/or reportedly haunted bar where the ghost stories continue while you relax with an optional beverage 👣 30 more min uncovering Charleston's forgotten people, overlooked history, & reported paranormal activity Throughout the experience, we'll use the principles of Ghost Forensics to investigate reported hauntings through history, architecture, folklore, documented accounts, & human behavior. Rather than simply asking "What's reported to haunt this place?" we'll ask deeper questions about who these people may have been, what happened here, what historical events created the ingredients commonly associated with reported hauntings, & what clues might help us better understand the human behind the haunting. The featured bar isn't simply a place to grab a drink—it's an important stop on the investigation. While we're there, the stories continue with the fascinating history, reported paranormal experiences, employee testimony, & historical context connected specifically to that location. As a consistently top-rated Charleston guide since January 2020, Charleston local since 1998, former licensed educator, & lifelong researcher, I blend education, humor, curiosity, & conversation to create an experience that welcomes believers, skeptics, & everyone in between. Questions, conversation, and curiosity are encouraged. No two tours are ever exactly alike. A limited number of EMF readers may be available during portions of the experience to increase immersion, although paranormal activity can never be guaranteed. Every guest also receives a complimentary souvenir hat to remember the evening.
