One of America’s oldest cities, Boston has been the site of some of American history's most exciting events. You could follow the Freedom Trail, or hike around Boston Gardens, indulge at Faneuil Hall, or pay homage at Fenway Park.
There are many ways to experience all that Boston has to offer, but only Boston Ghosts offers both an entertaining tour and a riveting history lesson at the same time. Because every of the 8 or 12 locations on this 1-mile tour has been thoroughly researched, you can be sure that even if you take the accounts of hauntings with a pinch of salt, you are hearing verifiable historical accounts of life in Boston throughout the ages.
Dating back to 1630, the city’s earliest history saw a huge number of Quakers and Witches executed. Hundreds of hangings took place on Boston Common. Not that you would know it from its pristine appearance today. Hear their stories, the innocent swinging next to those whose only crime was a different religious belief.
As mentioned above, Boston is one of the oldest cities in the United States. With centuries of conflicts and persecutions and generations of different residents, the city has seen an innumerable amount of death. It doesn’t help that Boston had a history of practicing public executions, and executing people for no reason other than their faith or perceived (not proven) guilt.
So much horrid death has led to the creation and continued existence of countless ghosts that call Boston their eternal home, making the city one of the most haunted places in Massachusetts.
If you meet a ghost, just give a friendly greeting, ‘how are ya’ perhaps.
Perhaps imagine you are visiting your Grandparents, or if you see any ghosts, inform them the Red Sox are still doing great!
Don’t mention the Yankees. Ghosts deserve to rest in peace.
We don’t want any guests to become future stories, buddy up!
Again, we don't want you to become a spirit. ;)
