Ghost tour with beautiful houses! - Went on a ghost tour tonight with Tyler( and Charlie) and it was phenomenal!! The history stories entwined with ghost stories and sightings, made for a very entertaining night. I have been on at least a dozen ghost tours and this is one of the top ones because you can tell Tyler enjoys this!! Great night and views in a historical city!

A Pro's Perspective: Dave Delivers an Exceptional Tour! - As a fellow ghost tour guide myself, running tours in Northwest Indiana for over 25 years, I have to say I went into this tour with a critical eye, and Dave absolutely blew me away! You can immediately tell that Dave is a true professional. He possesses a rare talent for blending deep historical knowledge—from the devastating 1900 storm to local eerie legends—with captivating, energetic storytelling. He doesn't just recite facts; he brings Galveston's haunted history to life in a way that is both informative and genuinely entertaining. I fully agree with other comments praising his humor and engaging style; he knows exactly how to work a crowd and keep everyone hanging on his every word. From one guide to another, I can very much recommend him. If you are in Galveston and looking for a top-tier haunted experience, book a tour with Dave—you won't regret it!

Worth the visit - Interesting stories of Galveston's history with a good emphasis on ghostly goings on. Our guide was personable and funny. Only disappointment was that there was no explanation on using all the equipment that was handed out (emf meters, thermal camera, spirit box) so everyone just ended up carrying it around.
