Boston Ghosts Self-Guided Tour

Welcome to the narrated walking tour of Boston’s Ghosts by Action Tour Guide!

Are you ready to turn your phone into a personal tour guide? This app offers an immersive experience of Boston’s ghosts- just like a local giving you a personalized, turn-by-turn, fully-guided tour.

The Boston Ghost Tour:
Do you feel a chill in the air? Perhaps a vague sensation of being watched? It could be because Boston is one of the most haunted cities in the country! So button up your coat, steel your nerves, and get ready to embark on a hair-raising journey through Boston’s supernatural side.

Traverse Boston’s oldest neighborhoods and hear about the lost souls still trapped within--from the poor, perpetually burning victims of a gas explosion in Boylston Station to a spectral woman in the Boston Common who tries to convince children to follow her into the dark. Walk through uneasy graveyards where the bodies have been moved, dug up, or lost altogether, and learn the stories of their unquiet dead.

All the while, listen to the rich supernatural history of this storied city. Get firsthand accounts of hauntings residents and visitors have experienced, like the numerous inexplicable sights and sounds within the Omni Parker Hotel, and uncover the harrowing tale of the system of underground tunnels beneath the Old State House.

These stories have been hidden for a reason… Are you brave enough to peer behind the veil?
