Ghost Tours of Harpers Ferry

What we are:

Ghost Tours are nighttime walking tours through the town of Harpers Ferry.  We stop at different buildings and locations, tell you the ghostly story of that location, and, when it is known, share the history of what caused the spirit to remain behind.  The tour lasts about an hour, however, as mentioned on our home page, guests who are interested in a Christian theory are invited to remain after the tours end for Christian-based theories and discussion.

When we meet:

   Weekends:      We begin our season in April when we offer tours on Saturday eveings at 8pm.  Starting Memorial Day weekend and running through the first weekend in November, tours are offered on both Friday and Saturday evenings at 8pm.  We do not offer tours on Sundays.

   Weeknights:    Between Memorial Day Weekend and Labor Day Weekend, we will be offering tours on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings at 8pm.  Reservations will be required for these tours and will need to be phoned in prior to 6:30pm the day of the tour.  The fee for these tours will be $10.00 per person unless the total group size exceeds 10 people - in this case, the fee will be $5.00 per person. 

   Special/Group tours:  After Labor Day Weekend special tours can be arranged on weeknights for groups of 10 or more.

Our Weather Policy:

Ghost Tours will not be offered if there is a steady rain or snow.  The weather decision is made at 7:30pm the evening of the tour.  Though this is our regular policy, during the months of October and November, we will offer tours in the rain as we have too many reservations to cancel.
