Boston has a unique place in American history. It’s famous for Fenway Park, legendary football, baked beans, and craft beer—the American Revolution began and was fought on these very streets. Given that storied reputation, many people fail to see the foreboding darkness that lurks at the edges of the city’s historical working-class surface.
Ghosts have been a part of Boston’s legacy since the very earliest days. Book your Boston ghost tour today to get up close and personal with the gritty stories that make Boston so famous.
Omni Parker House
The Old Granary Burial Ground is the third oldest memorial site in Boston. Here, you can see the headstones of some of the country’s most notable figures. Benjamin Franklin’s parents, Abiah and Josiah Franklin, are currently resting in Old Granary. Several people who have visited the site at night have captured images of supposedly ghostly figures roaming around. Whether it’s neighboring ghosts or Franklin’s parents, it’s an eerie view into history you won’t want to miss.
Boston Common
Boston Common, located in the heart of Boston, Massachusetts, is the oldest public park in the United States. Established in 1634, it has served as a gathering place for public events, celebrations, and hangings throughout the centuries. Pirates, Natives, Quakers, and everyday criminals once hung under the Great Elm in the park’s center. Hazy apparitions appearing late at night now remind unsuspecting visitors to the commons of its gruesome and morbid past.
King’s Chapel and Burying Ground
Chapels and cemeteries frequently attract visitors from other parts of the world. After all, it’s where the dead are laid to rest. The King’s Chapel and Burying Ground in Boston is no exception. The site is well-preserved and sports a Victorian-era design. People who visit the cemetery claim to see shadow figures roaming around at night. The two spirits thought to be held responsible for the hauntings are Elizabeth Pain and Joseph Tapping.
What to Expect on Your Boston Ghost Tour
For a city that played a large part in forming the American cultural identity, Boston also has a discomforting connection to the otherworldly. Boston Ghosts offers an uncompromising look at what makes Beantown such a compelling haunted location.
As the birthplace of America’s revolutionary spirit, many people have ventured to the city in the hopes of being a part of history. What they did not know, though, is that sometimes history deals in cruel ironies. The blood spilled on these streets in the name of freedom and liberty has left an indelible mark on the area – one that can still be felt today.
Sure, you can read about the tragedy and death that underlie Boston’s legendary history, but experiencing its horrifying truth in person at night will help make you feel like you are a part of the city’s strange and ghastly history. Reserve your tour today and experience the side of Boston that you won’t see in the history books.

Why You Should Book Your Boston Ghost Tour Tonight!
The Omni Parker House
Haunted by its first owner and other notable ghostly guests, the Omni Parker House is considered Boston’s most haunted location. One room in particular has caused so much trouble, terror, and grief that the hotel was eventually forced to convert it into a storage room, lest they risk another guest suffering from a grisly night’s stay in the cursed room. What could possibly drive a hotel to permanently retire an otherwise perfectly good guest room? Discover the details on the Boston Ghosts tour.
Boston Common
This seemingly placid area is the country’s oldest park. For a century of its long history, Boston Common was the site of hundreds of hangings. Not all of the victims of these executions managed to escape the park, even after death. The grim ghosts of the hanging victims are the least of your paranormal concerns in the Common. Keep your eyes open and your wits about you whenever you’re at this park… or else.
Old South Meeting House | Old City Hall
Witness the birthplace of the Boston Tea Party protest and the very American Revolution itself at the Old South Meeting House. This building is of crucially historic importance, but that’s not the only legacy the meeting house is known for. There is a particular specter that sometimes appears. It always acts as a harbinger of impending death. Or perhaps it’s no messenger of death at all, but instead directly responsible for the string of deaths that have befallen the unlucky ones who’ve encountered it. Tread very, very carefully here, and hope you don’t end up seeing this fatal spirit.
Old City Hall
This former hub of Boston’s local government has since become a bustling mixed-use commercial and office property. Because of its historical significance being covered up with the new polish of redevelopment, at least one ghost exacts its revenge for this perceived disrespect for history on visitors. The Old City Hall may be magnificent looking, but watch where you look inside…
