Step beyond the ivy-covered walls and into the haunted heart of The Elm City on the #1 Ghost Tour in New Haven. A chilling journey through the city’s mysterious and macabre past. As night falls and the streets grow quiet, you’ll walk among the restless echoes of centuries-old stories that still linger in the dark corners of New Haven. Guided by the city’s official haunted history experts, this immersive walking tour unveils the eerie secrets behind some of New Haven’s most infamous sites. You’ll stand before the historic Union Apartments, once the site of strange deaths and whispered hauntings, and hear the spectral tales that drift from the Shubert Theatre, where legends of the stage may not have entirely left the building. The glow of nearby lamplight may seem comforting, but beneath its warmth lies the memory of a city built on ambition, mystery, and tragedy.
