Pensacola Ghosts and Graveyards Tour

My friend and I never made the tour because of a family problem. I called 3 hours before the tour started to possibly get a refund or sign up for another time. My request was denied by the manager. We lost $47. This isn't the way to do good business. I'll have to let others know before THEY go. ~ Deb Gabel, Senior Citizen, Panama City

The tour was a video played inside the bus, on a big TV screen located in front of the bus. Without a story or background, the owner of the tour talked about each ghostly appearance, dramatizing the tale with scenes from classic scary movies; while we were driven to the house in mention. It was not a tour but a real waste of time.

This tour was completely inappropriate for children. As a pediatrician, I am very aware of the recent research about how severely ACES (adverse childhood events) affect brain development. While facing imaginary fears with humor can be beneficial to child development, bombarding children with graphic reports of violent crimes and real human atrocities can be extremely damaging. Advertising this tour as "parental guidance suggested" is misleading, since there is no way for a parent to know in advance that this is a crime, murder, and torture tour, not a harmless ghost tour. The Charleston ghost tour ends every imaginary haunting story with a happy ending. A similar tour in Pensacola would be fun for families. The horrifying tour you provided is very damaging and should absolutely be restricted to children younger than 13.
