What to expect

  1. Bruton Parish Episcopal Church
    24m
    The flickering candlelight of this 17th-century church hides a chilling history of wartime burials and unmarked graves beneath its floors. Visitors have heard phantom footsteps echo through the pews, while thermal imaging has detected unexplained cold spots at the altar. Is it the spirits of lost soldiers, or something more sinister lingering in the sacred halls?

    Bruton Parish Church Cemetery, the centuries-old graveyard, also holds the restless spirits of Williamsburg’s earliest settlers, with eerie whispers often captured on EVP recordings. Some claim to see shadowy figures drifting between the tombstones, including a woman in colonial dress who vanishes into thin air. Bring your ghost-hunting equipment—many have reported their EMF detectors spiking near unmarked graves.
  2. Governor's Palace
    24m
    This grand estate once witnessed the tragic deaths of wounded Revolutionary War soldiers, their cries still heard in the dead of night. Paranormal investigators have recorded sudden temperature drops and strange anomalies on spirit boxes near the ballroom. Will your ghost-hunting gear pick up the presence of those who never left their posts?

    Join us and uncover the old structure of the Governor's Palace that was rebuilt in the 1930s after being destroyed by fire in 1781. During repair, they discovered more than 150 skeletons on the ground, in contrast to many of the other buildings.
  3. 24m
    Known as one of the most haunted houses in America, this eerie mansion has a history of death, despair, and ghostly encounters. Guests have reported poltergeist activity, with objects moving on their own and doors slamming shut without explanation. If you dare, set up your night vision camera—you may catch a glimpse of the specters that still roam its halls.
  4. 24m
    Once a place of colonial gatherings and wartime chaos, the Market Square is now a hotbed of supernatural activity. Visitors have captured strange light anomalies near the Powder Magazine, where soldiers once guarded munitions and met untimely deaths. Use your dowsing rods here—many believe they can guide you to the restless spirits still trapped beneath the cobblestone streets.
  5. 24m
    Once home to criminals, pirates, and the condemned, the Williamsburg Jail still echoes with the moans of those who met their fate here. Paranormal teams have captured chilling EVP recordings of desperate voices pleading for release. Will your spirit box reveal the last words of the long-forgotten prisoners?
