What to expect

  1. George Wythe House
    10m · Admission ticket not included
    Travelers begin this portion of the tour outside the historic George Wythe House to discover the darker historical events tied to this landmark residence. As your guide shares tales of unexplained occurrences and local legends, you will stand on the surrounding grounds to admire the 18th-century architecture. Admission inside the house is not included, making this an exterior viewing stop where guests can safely listen to ghost stories from the main pathway. Comfortable walking shoes and weather-appropriate clothing are recommended, as this segment involves standing on unpaved or cobblestone walkways.
  2. 15m · Admission ticket not included
    Next, your tour continues to the Peyton Randolph House, widely regarded as one of Williamsburg’s most active haunted locations. Guests will view the exterior of this historic home while your guide recount documented paranormal sightings, restless spirits, and eerie local lore. Entry inside the home is excluded, allowing you to focus on the terrifying history and mysterious events that occurred on the surrounding property. Because this stop takes place outdoors along historic streets, travelers should be prepared for light walking and should bring a flashlight or fully charged smartphone for navigating dimly lit areas at night.
