Overview

2026 Besties Award-winning original Safety Harbor ghost tour, running since 2021. Led by certified guide Cynthia Dominick. Real history. No theatrics.

Safety Harbor is a small coastal town on Tampa Bay. After dark, it tells a different story. This is Safety Harbor's only ghost tour and the longest running — founded in 2021 by Cynthia Dominick. With a 4.9-star Google rating and the 2026 Besties Award for Best Tour, Silent Slayer has built its reputation on real experiences, not theatrical ones.

This 90-minute walking tour covers documented history and paranormal activity downtown, including a hanging tree, a devastating fire, and a bank robbery, with stops at the historic Safety Harbor Resort and Spa lobby.

The tour begins near City Hall, where since 2021 Silent Slayer has documented a firetruck phenomenon with no explanation.

Guests finish with a ghost hunting sampler at the Elf Tree and a stop at the ancient Baranoff Oak. No costumes. No actors. No scripted jump scares.
