The Energy Was Electric! - What an incredible experience! Sheila Rogers met us at check-in. Her passion and enthusiasm were first-class. Walking through (and listening to) the history of Key West and how the firehouse played a major role was powerful. I'm so glad I took this tour!

FIREHOUSE GHOSTS - The Haunted Firehouse Tour was FANTASTIC ! 3 or 4 times during the tour, I heard footsteps behind me. Constant feeling as if someone was watching me. The narration on the audio part was clear, very informative. Overall, I would recommend this tour when visiting Key West.

Scary Firehouse History! - This haunted tour was on fire! My wife and I both loved the history and the chills! The Firehouse Museum is a great off-the-beaten-track adventure in Key West, and we highly recommend coming back for the ghosts!

Add it to your list - Always looking for interesting things to do off Duval with the family. Educational and a tad spooky. Perfect for our family and attention span.

Perfectly creepy ! - It was creepy. I did see a fast moving shadow near station one. And something crossed in front of my camera when I was taking a photo of the engines. My own SLS equipment picked up on energy on the grounds, and on both floors of the firehouse. It was probably creepier doing it as a solo !

Candlelight tour for those who dare (and highly recommended for all) - Amazing new experience!! Ghosts and legends combined with history as you take a self guided tour (either bring headphones and use your phone or they have MP3 with headphones to borrow). Walk around the Firehouse museum by candlelight and stop to explore at a dozen locations. Then have time to search for ghosts with their EMP equipment after you are done. This is great for all ages -- if you dare!! My kids loved it. I learned a lot and at one point felt a cold presence by the horse burial ground. Highly recommended and this compliments the other ghost/ paranormal offerings in town.

Fantastic time at The Hanunted Firehouse - My wife and I had the pleasure to attend the new Key West firehouse tour. It flows well with stories on the outside grounds to the two levels inside the firehouse. Very reasonably priced and Dan does a fantastic job as your ghost host....Dan is the best! I look forward to taking this tour again next year when we visit! Well done!
