About Providence Ghost Tour

Join us for an evening like no other! Allow our guides to lead you by lantern light and introduce you to Providence’s longest-lingering residents. As we creep in the shadows, we walk in the footsteps of local literary giants and humble servants alike, their restless souls still stirring among the living. Learn the tales that keep college students jumping out of their beds at night as we weave history and mystery into a fine tapestry of spine-tingling delight.

Tours begin at 8 p.m. May – August 31 and at 7 p.m. September 1 – December. We recommend arriving at Prospect Terrace Park 10-15 minutes before your scheduled tour so that your tour guide can check you in. Please note you are asked to provide the name under which tickets were purchased at the beginning of the tour. We recommend showing the guide your receipt as proof of purchase. You may show this on a mobile device and do not need to print anything out.

Our Roots and Our Journey

Providence Ghost Tour rose from the grave in 2006 after nine months of historical and paranormal research. Since 2006, the tour has morphed and changed over time. New ghosts have offered their tales, while other ghosts said goodbye, so the route and stories have changed accordingly.

Providence Ghost Tour is owned solely by Courtney, AKA Ghost Mom. Courtney is a paranormal believer and has experienced spirit activity throughout her life. The history and mystery of Providence captured Courtney’s heart. It is a privilege to tell the tales of the souls of our city and to interact regularly with their energies.

Providence Ghost Tour proudly partners with Providence Riverboat Company and La Gondola Providence to tell tales of the haunted riverfront.

Providence Ghost Tour hosts Good Spirit Tours each month, dedicating a portion of the proceeds to a selected community charity or cause. We believe in leaving a legacy of light, therefore community contributions are central to Providence Ghost Tour’s mission.

The Tales We Tell

Providence Ghost Tour prides itself on authenticity. The historical and paranormal research that was the foundation of the tour remains intact and integral today. Each story has been carefully scrutinized and considered before making a debut on the tour. As we’ve had personal experiences with the stops and their ghostly hosts, stories have expanded and fleshed out. Each guide has a unique relationship with each tale and each spirit, therefore each tour is its own unique experience.
