Full description
The Death and Dying Ghost Tour uncovers the morbid heart of historic Boston. On this 90-minute adults-only walking tour, your guide takes you beyond colonial heroes and into a past filled with persecution, pirates, plagues, and premature burials.
Starting at the Mary Dyer Statue, you’ll follow the tragic path of a woman executed for her faith, learn about the ghost of a Revolutionary lawyer struck down by lightning, and hear the chilling legend of a man buried alive for his inheritance. You'll visit cemeteries reorganized by the Victorians—who moved headstones but not the bodies—and hear about the macabre practice of bookbinding with human skin.
From the haunted elevators of the Omni Parker House to public executions on Boston Common, every step of this tour is steeped in death, injustice, and the ghosts left behind. With unforgettable stories and a gritty, irreverent tone, this is Boston’s most raw and riveting ghost tour for adults.
