What Guests Say
We had a wonderful time on the tour last night. The stories were great. Mike did a fabulous job. He is a great storyteller. I would highly recommend to anyone who is a history buff.
Although it was probably the coldest night in Charleston, Mike's tour kept us on the tips of our toes with fascinating ghost stories. Not only was he knowledgeable about history, but the stories from past tours were incredible.
Mike was fantastic! We walked along many interesting areas of Charleston. You could see he had a passion about this town! He brought in enough "scare" to make this one of the best Halloweens ever!
