Highlights

Go where other tours can’t. Enter historic Fort East Martello after dark, meet Robert the Doll, then stay behind for an extended paranormal investigation inside the haunted Civil War-era fort. Your VIP experience begins with a 30-minute guided ghost tour through the fort, followed by a 30-minute seated encounter directly with Robert the Doll. Hear the documented history behind his legend, separate fact from folklore, and learn about the latest unexplained activity surrounding him. Then, when the standard experience ends, VIP guests remain inside the fort for an additional 60-minute paranormal investigation, using ghost-hunting equipment to explore one of Key West’s most unusual historic sites after dark. Fort East Martello has been named one of America’s Top 10 Haunted Destinations by USA TODAY. This is your chance to experience the fort in a way daytime visitors and ordinary ghost tours cannot.

About Key West

Key West is the southernmost city in the continental United States, a small Florida Keys island of wooden conch houses, coral reefs and sunset crowds.

Key West lies at the end of the Overseas Highway, the road that hops from island to island for about 180 kilometres from the mainland, and is about 150 kilometres from Cuba. The old town is a grid of narrow streets lined with wooden conch houses trimmed with white fretwork and shaded by palms. Free-roaming chickens wander the pavements.

Top-ranked sights in Key West: Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, Mallory Square, Fort Zachary Taylor.
