Boston Ghosts and Gravestones Trolley Tour

Highlights

Leistungen

Ablauf

1. Step aboard the trolley of the doomed and join your host, a 17th-century grave digger, cursed with a sentence of eternal damnation. This wretched creature is doomed to travel the streets of Boston and relay the stories of the unfortunate souls he encountered and the macabre events he had been witness to during his purgatory. Hear about Boston's most sinister characters - from the Angel of Death to the king of all killers - the Boston Strangler. Learn about all the haunts that call the "Hub" their home. But that's not all! Step inside two of the oldest burying grounds in Boston for a walking tour you will never forget. Learn the significance of much of the imagery found in these 17th century burial grounds and the famous and not so famous (but even more interesting) occupants therein. Visit Copp's Hill Burying Ground in the North End, nestled atop the tallest point in one of Boston's oldest historic districts. Here you will visit the final resting place of Cotton Mather, a man famous for his "intimate" involvement with the Salem Witch Trials. Then to the Granary Burying Ground where you will visit the final resting places of many of the famous heroes of the American Revolution including John Hancock, Paul Revere and Samuel Adams. Remember that half of the tour is walking, so comfortable shoes are recommended (so you don't become "dead" on your feet)!

• 5Ghost Trolley Tour

  We had a great time in spite of the rain. In fact, my kids said the rain made the tour even spookier. Our guide, Ronkor did a great job staying in character and mixing spooky with a little comic relief. Would definitely recommend!

• 4Fun thing to try if you like graveyards

  It was fun to go into the graveyards at night and learn about unique figures. Not scary. It was shorter than expected.
