...ok, well, may be I am. Are you? In fact, I am not afraid of ghosts because I don't believe in them. However, I do still get that creepy feeling when you walking into a strange new place. My great grandmother's basement was like a dungeon. It had a pull string light located at the bottom of very steep and narrow stairs. I would rush down and turn the light on as fast as I could, get what I needed, turn out the light, and race back up.
Savannah is said to be one of the most haunted cities in America. In fact, the history channel has it ranked in second place while parapsychologists seem to feel it's a winner. Because of this, there are plenty of ghost tours here. The only way to find out, is to experience Savannah for yourself. So, I have compiled a list of the ghost tours available. If you take any of these tours, please come back and tell me if this place is truly haunted.
Ghost Tours - Galore!
Are you looking for a Creepy Crawl or a Creepy Stroll? Well, this is the tour for you. The first tour last over 2 hours and visits some haunted pubs along the way, adults only. They wanted you to meet all the "spirits". The second takes you along the historic district and last an hour and a half. For both of these, walking shoes is a necessity because you're on foot the whole time! Beware, this link plays the Ghostbuster's theme song.
