This wretched creature is doomed to travel the streets of Boston and relay the stories of the unfortunate souls he has encountered and the macabre events he had been witness to during his sentence. The tour involves a whole cast of characters to lead you on an adventure through the darker side of Boston. A scary, fun and informative fright seeing experience that is truly one of a kind.
Hear about Boston's most sinister characters, from the Angel of Death to the most infamous killer of all, the Boston Strangler. See Boston’s most haunted building, hear of its famous curses, and learn about all the haunts that call the “Hub” their home.
But that’s not all! Step inside two of the oldest burying grounds in Boston for a walking tour you will never forget. Stroll through Copp's Hill Burying Ground- site of Boston’s largest grave robbing scandal. Here you will visit the final resting place of Cotton Mather, a man famous for his "intimate" involvement with the Salem Witch Trials. Then follow your guide across Boston Common- site of public hangings long ago- into the Old Granary Burying Ground and view the gravestones of the famous and not so famous (but far more interesting) occupants therein.
Join us... if you dare!

Kennedy Profile in Courage Award that recognizes and honors the country's public servants who have done the most to benefit their communities, nation and the world.
