Ghost photos will be shown on a large computer notebook (Samsung Galaxy), and the guides will point out the exact window or location where the photo was taken, as well possibilities about the identity of the ghost in question. Travelers are encouraged to bring their own cameras too; many have walked away with their own intriguing ghost photos.

Additional Information
Experience the only spectral tour globally, grounded in the inaugural photographic study of spirits! Our tour incorporates authentic ghostly images, showcased in the publication Series Haunted Historic Colonial Williamsburg Virginia with Breakthrough Ghost Photography, volumes 1 & 2. These images are displayed at every stop via a large PC tablet (Samsung Galaxy). Our guides will mark the precise spot in or around the house/building where each photograph was captured so that the visitors can try their hands at photography. In addition, our guides offer relevant historical information concerning the hauntings, along with anecdotal evidence from the book’s author, interpreters, and Colonial Williamsburg’s security staff. Tour attendees are provided with the option to select their destinations based on personal interest – no two tours are identical! The East Tour commences at the Capital, proceeds down Duke of Gloucester Street to the 1770 Courthouse, crosses Market Square, and culminates at the most reputedly haunted site in Williamsburg–the Peyton Randolph House.

Great time - The night was very informative and interesting. We heard some interesting stories and saw photos of possible ghosts. Took photos ourselves. One of the best tours we have taken for night walks and “ghosts”. We hss as be taken many this was also not crowded like the others going on at the same time. You will enjoy your time for sure.

Fun Experience, Brings the Darker Past of Williamsburg to Life - I really enjoyed this! Mr. Scullion was an entertaining guide, and it was fun to wander the streets of Colonial Williamsburg at night while listening to his stories and seeing his photos (which he displayed on his laptop). Even if you're a skeptic, just hearing the tales & legends helped bring old Williamsburg to life. Highly recommended! And one of his books is available at the Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center, if you're interested.

Ghost adventure. Some pictures to come. - Tim did an amazing job! We learned a lot about the history and people back in those days. Tim’s pictures were very interesting and educational. We will do this tour again soon. Thank you again, Tim.

A different, but better type of ghost tour - This tour was different than other ghost tours because it was more than just stories. We got to see real photos of ghosts and apparitions taken by both the trout guide and past guests. We were able to take our own photos and have him help us identify if we had captured any ghosts in our own photos. The stories we heard were historically accurate and not just fiction for the tour.
It was also very affordable as compared to other tours and it was longer in duration without having to pay extra for “bonus” locations.
I did this tour with my husband and my 2 kids (age 11 and 13) and we all enjoyed it.

Fun experience - Great tour! Tim was extremely knowledgeable. He kept us (including my 8 y/o son) intrigued while telling stories and showing fascinating pics. We loved the tour so much that we found, and listened to several podcasts featuring Tim on the way home. If you want to see creepy convincing images ,with equally intriguing stories, this is the tour for you. Best ghost tour I’ve been on and fun experience for my family.

A memorable night - We had so much fun on this ghost tour! Tim was a great story teller. Even though my 9 year old was scared by the end, she ended up saying it was her favorite part of our trip to Williamsburg (better than Busch Gardens?!). We all enjoyed taking pictures and looking for ghosts.

Good haunted history lesson - We did the night tour and it set the stage for a scary atmosphere. Our guide was good and made our imagination run wild! The photos he shared with us really upped the tour and made the experience that much eerier. Only downside was that we almost didn’t make it on time for the tour as the directions took us to a road that was closed till 10 pm. After making a no. of wrong turns we arrived in front of a parking area that said only private parking, was not made clear to us that we were allowed to park there.
