Your Itinerary

Bishop White House

Here at the Bishop White House you can expect to learn all about the respected Reverend William White, and how his entire world was turned upside down by mosquitos, and the lingering spirits left behind from these events.

American Philosophical Society Museum

Everyone's favorite founding father, Benjamin Franklin, was quite the colorful character in life, and a major bookworm to boot. This stop is where you will not only be learning a little about Benjamin Franklin's life, but also his afterlife and the antics his spirit gets up to in this very building!

Independence Hall

While the first floor of Independence Hall was where many fought for their freedom, the second floor held many still being oppressed and denied their own freedom and the hauntings you will learn about are a direct result of those vile acts.

Went on this tour expecting to hear some spooky stories about Philly and got so much more. Jonathon was incredibly knowledgable about not only the supernatural, but also about the history of Philly! I learned so much I didn't know and had a lovely walk around Old City. The tour went by so quickly and I learned so many awesome fun facts. Such a great way to see a part of Philly in a new way, 10/10 definitely recommend for Philadelphians and tourists alike

Very knowledgeable guide - enjoyed the depth of historical information! In particular, I appreciated how we visited sites outside of the main area by Independence Hall, such as Bishop William White’s house, to learn about some lesser known figures.

Great tour. Everyone learned about the history of Philadelphia and was very entertained. Our group had three teenagers (13-19) and it held their interest for cose to two hours.

Fun and historical. Ghost stories weren’t too scary so it’s definitely fine for kids. Loved going to Benjamin Franklin’s grave. Claire was knowledgeable and recommended a great spot for cheesesteaks after the tour!

The tour was entertaining with so many great spooky stories we thoroughly enjoyed. Clare was an exceptional story teller and funny too. I really appreciate that she included everyone even the young ones. My 8 year old was paying attention the whole time and wanted to know more about the people and places she mentioned after the tour. I highly recommend this tour!
