Highlights
  • 1859 Ashton Villa - Ashton Villa\n\nThe extremely wealthy eccentric Betty Brown’s spirit is forever roaming the elegant halls of Ashton Villa. Many have seen Betty wearing a turquoise dress and carrying a fan during lavish event held at the mansion. Even death can’t keep Betty from being the life of the party…and scare the guests half to death.\n- Open Gates Conference Center - Sealy Mansion (Open Gates)\n\nJohn Sealy wanted to the best for his family so, we decided to build them the largest and most lavish house on the Island. The children play room was in the attic and had a Broadway stage. To this day the children continue to perform for anyone brave enough to witness the stage doors opening and closing by themselves. Magnolia Sealy, the head of the household is seen wandering the halls too shy to speak with visitors.

Definitely will do again - This tour was very informative and so much fun. Taylor was an excellent tour guide. We did the 8pm tour and it was perfect. Still enough light to see the houses but better when it was night time. For sure bring bug spray. So many mosquitoes at night.

Fun! And interesting - Noelle was a wonderful tour guide. She was very knowledgeable, full of energy, and very personable. She made our tour very interesting. We've done the cemetary tour and are looking forward to a date night (without the kiddos this time) doing the red light district tour.

Awesome Ghost Tour! - Noelle was fantastic! We booked this tour last minute and she was incredibly accommodating! Noelle is very knowledgeable about the ghosts on the island as well as the island itself. We saw lots of beautiful and creepy spots and were given plenty of opportunities to snap some pics of the various locations.
