We are not a haunted house, and no one will jump out and scare you on our tours. Our tour and ghost hunt is a 1 to 2 hour fun evening walk through a haunted town while you learn the spooky history, local folklore, and legends about the area. Exciting and entertaining, our tours have been known to send a chill down the spine. However, we are not considered a scary activity. Some tours and activities can be quite spooky depending on the paranormal activity for that evening. If you want the creepiest and spookiest activity we offer, try the Ghost Hunt first.
-

-
Believe it or not, we cannot make ghosts appear on cue. But, every single week, we catch strange visions on camera, see weird shapes in the dark, and experience that tingle on the back of our neck that someone or someTHING might be watching us…
Our tours are designed to show you the haunted history of town, and help you explore the paranormal world around you. Some strange things have happened to us out there on tour over the years. Keep your mind open to the possibilities and your senses on alert, and get ready for an experience!

We get this question a lot. In our line of work, hauntings are a regular occurrence in everyday places. We believe that there are ghosts almost everywhere, they are simply waiting for the right person to make contact and acknowledge their presence. Our team of investigators and history buffs have researched hundreds of hours of documents and word-of-mouth experiences that lead us to believe that yes, something paranormal is going on here. Whether you want to believe they are ghosts, or simply the mind playing tricks – we leave that up to you to decide. At Houston Ghost Tour, our main goal is to promote local history, legend, and folklore in a way that is entertaining, educational, and fun. It’s what we’re all about!

Dress for the weather – we go on, rain or shine!
All of our ghost tours are outdoors, so please wear comfortable closed-toe shoes, and wear clothes according to the current weather forecast. We tour rain or shine on most occasions, so bring an umbrella if it calls for rain!
Weather cancellations – We will only cancel the tour if the weather is deemed unsatisfactory for the tour to be held. For example, if the rain is heavy and there is lightning, if the rain is so heavy we cannot navigate or see/hear the guide clearly, or if there is known flooding along the tour route. If we do cancel the tour, we will ask if you would like to reschedule or receive a full refund.
We will still hold the tour if it is a light sprinkle.

In Spring and Tomball there will be some shops open for you to explore before or after the tour. In Spring there are 2 you will go inside during the tour. In Houston it is a walk through a park. Most shops close in all locations by 6pm. Our tours are all about the stories, and due to liability issues with taking large groups inside very small buildings, we do not go inside every spot.
-
No. The ghosts we discuss on our tours are tied to areas where significant memories were for them when they were alive. The spirits in our tour spots are stuck where they are, forever bound to their last memories. Don’t ever worry about taking something home. It just doesn’t happen that way. Our ghosts are content where they are, and you are simply a visitor in their domain for the short time you are on the tour.
