Top 10 Ghost & Vampire Tours in Coastal South Carolina, Coastal South Carolina

March 13, 2022 Jacquiline Delozier

Miles of white sand and romantic island resorts beckon from the hem of the Palmetto State. Families gravitate to Myrtle Beach and the 60-mile span of Grand Strand, where over 100 championship golf courses, tennis courts and nightclubs await. Charleston’s hundreds of heritage buildings, and irresistible charm, are part of its allure. Beach resorts at Kiawah Island, Seabrook and Edisto Island make for romantic getaways. Marshes, moss-bearded palms and oak groves create ambiance in the haunting Lowcountry.

What could be better than a food tour combined with a ghost tour? Nothing! You will meet your guide in downtown Charleston for exclusive access to our haunted restaurants. We will visit up to 4 haunted restaurants and multiple haunted buildings along a walking route of downtown. At the restaurants, we have set up 1-3 food tastings per location. We will have private areas in dining rooms, bars, haunted basements, and pretty much anywhere we can find to sample food, spirits, and hear ghost stories. We will visit other historic and haunted buildings along the route and tell stories and give your bellies a few minute break from the samples. Our Haunted Food Tour in unlike any other food tour in Charleston. Tours last about 3 hours, cover less than a mile on a walking route, and have plenty of time spent inside haunted restaurants for food and stories.

Is this a walking brew tour with a side of ghosts or a ghost tour with a side of brews?? While guests will have to decide that for themselves, we can tell you this is not an average "sit there and shut up " tour, but rather an opportunity to engage back and forth with a local Charlestonian. As a combined bar and ghost tour guests will visit two different bars where complimentary appetizers will be served and the guide will provide drink recommendations. As part of the tour guests will also walk by and receive ghost stories near local graveyards and homes, some of which are over 200 years old. The tour will wind down at a hauntingly beautiful local park where one of the first female serial killers was hung. Don't stick around too long after the tour or you may end up a ghost yourself!

Could not recommend Capt. Bryan’s tours enough! He was so friendly and got our group to feel like old friends in the first 15 minutes of meeting each other! The groups are small by design and that made the afternoon so much more enjoyable, as we were all able to interact more (verses being at the back of some huge group unable to ask any questions!). We walked through beautiful Charleston, learned a little bit of (not your average) history, and drank some beers along the way! What more could you want?! If your in town I highly recommend meeting up with Bryan. We can’t wait to come back and go on his boat tour!

We selected this ghost tour based on terrific tripadvisor reviews and were not disappointed in this 2 hour walking tour of historical ghost experiences in Beaufort. Charlotte delivered one of the best ghost tour experiences (and we've done a lot ) we've ever had with vast knowledge of the history of the area, colorful descriptions of supernatural events, and a very friendly manner. We understand she does carriage tours as well and look forward to seeking her out next time we visit Beaufort.

I offer great stories and good times! What makes this tour unique is that I can promise that you will be getting me, Adam Moore, as your tour guide. With some of the other larger tour companies you never know who your guide could be. When you book this tour you can be reassured that I will be your guide. This makes sure that you will be getting a licensed and engaging tour guide here in Charleston. In addition to that, most tours in Charleston will take out 20 people on a tour. I keep my tours smaller and max out at 14-15 people. By having smaller groups it allows my guests to have a more personalized and unique experience.

Inclusions: Scary Stories and a Good Time!, A Tour of 1 of The Most Haunted Cities in America, Ghost Photos

We have been on a few of these tours before, but Adam's tour was the best by far. There was something for everyone (Ages 8, 13, 39 & 44) to like on this tour. It was fresh, interesting and entertaining. Adam truly has a passion for his city, for his state and for history in general. I would definitely take a tour with him again and I highly recommend him if you are in Charleston. Two BIG thumbs up!!!

I highly recommend a 2 1/2 walking tour of the charming city Charleston with Ann Garris 843 224-7817. Ann was amazing and filled with enormous amounts of history of the city, beautiful homes and all points of interest . Ann was very responsive from the very first phone call until we had the pleasure of meeting her and followed up with more wonderful sites and restaurants to see after our tour. Ann was raised in Charleston and is very knowledgeable and passionate of her beautiful city. You will not be disappointed touring with Ann.

Outstanding guide. We were lucky to have only 7 people on our tour which gave us a chance to spend time diving deep into the history of Charleston. Geordie has a very extensive knowledge of the area and never once sounded like he had memorized a script. Super friendly. Super smart. Always had more to offer. We could have listened to him talk all day. Highly recommend taking any tour he offers. We will look for the books he has published on haunted Charleston. Wondering what he would suggest to read to learn more about the history of the Masons in the U.S. Thanks for an amazing morning!

You will explore Charleston's seedier history. From the city's brothels to gritty true crime stories, We will open the door to the darker side of human nature. Combining aspects of the truly horrific, the scandalously salacious and the just-plan-weird, this ghost tour is a unique look at a city which largely ignores its dark past. Brothels, murders, suicides, demonic entities - just some of what you'll hear about on this tour. The Death and Depravity Ghost Tour contains mature themes and language.

Inclusions: All Fees and Taxes, A Fun and Spooky Evening, Walking Tour, Local/ Professional Guide
