Tour Preview: What You’ll See
Public Hospital
Sudden gusts of wind often blow through the halls of the oldest mental asylum in America, a reminder of the brutal conditions once suffered by the patients of Public Hospital. Opened in 1773, the old hospital's death-filled corridors are engulfed in the tormented screams of its victims, truly inspiring nightmares to all who dare pass by.
Courthouse
Witchcraft’s prevalence in colonial times is not forgotten in Williamsburg. Whispers of “I didn’t do it” can be heard coming from the backyard of this historic 1771 courthouse, once used as a hospital and morgue during the Civil War. Could they be coming from an accused witch?
Ludwell-Paradise House
Mad Lucy Ludwell was considered one of Colonial Williamsburg's most eccentric and strange citizens in the late 1700s. She lived in this 1755 home, where she always kept herself obsessively clean. Now, residents of the historical home often hear her spirit bathing late at night.
What is the Ultimate Dead of Night Ghost Tour About?
Journey with us to see what horrifying truths lie behind Colonial Williamsburg’s living museum. Ever since it was established in 1699, it has encountered an onslaught of death and disease that has left the parking lots and tourist attractions of today riddled with unexplained activity. Behind the reenactments and historical displays that draw millions each year is a landscape littered with the souls of Colonial times.
Find out what happens in the picturesque village of Colonial Williamsburg after the sun goes down and the spirits of the dead take over. The Public Gaol, Jones Cemetery, and Public Hospital are just a few relics of the city’s gruesome past that come alive at night. The infamous Mr. Scratch, known as such for the hair-raising scratching heard by unfortunate security guards of the Public Goal late at night, is one of the many phantoms waiting in the shadows of Colonial Williamsburg. The ghosts of Duke of Gloucester Street are just as old as the city itself and ready to mingle with the living.
Some of the most haunted places in America await you on our Williamsburg Ultimate Dead of Night Ghost Tour. The Peyton-Randolph House is one of these places and not for the weak of the heart. Cursed by a betrayed enslaved person named Eve, who was promised her freedom during the Revolutionary War only to have it violently taken back away from her, this house has seen over a dozen wretched demises since the late 1700s.
Even the bravest souls have fled the house in horror throughout its 300-year history. Feel the terror of this chilling tale and the rest of Williamsburg’s haunted history on this Ultimate Dead of Night tour. Reserve your spot today!
