Full description

Join Ghost City Tours for a spirited night in Charleston with the Haunted Pub Crawl, a 2-hour adults-only walking tour that blends true ghost stories, local legends, and bar stops across the city’s oldest and most haunted sites.

 You’ll start near the harbor—where the city’s pirate executions once took place—and make your way through Charleston’s chilling past of brothels, bootleggers, and bloody battles. From a haunted Prohibition speakeasy to a bar where spectral women still tug on visitors’ hair, this crawl explores the darker—and often rowdier—side of the Holy City.

 Hear tales of pirates dangling from the gallows, Revolutionary patriots executed for treason, and bootleggers who refused to bow to the law. Sip drinks where ghosts still linger, including a pub haunted by a black-dressed woman and a Victorian-era restaurant visited by the spirit of a lonely teacher.

 Whether you're a history buff, ghost hunter, or just in it for the drinks, this is the perfect way to explore Charleston by night—with a drink in hand and a ghost at your back.
