Asheville Night Ghost Walking Tour
Take a spooky stroll through the streets of downtown Asheville on this ghost walking tour that helps you navigate at night safely. Your ghoulish guide will reveal some of the area’s hair-raising tales and dark history that you won't find in the guidebook, like the woman who haunts the Omni Grove Park Inn, the body entombed in the wall of the Basilica of St. Lawrence, and much more.
Highlights
- ✓This evening activity complements a day of sightseeing
- ✓See historic buildings and sites, learning all about their dark history
- ✓Explore in cooler temperatures when crowds have dispersed
- ✓Discover a different side of Asheville away from the daytime crowds
What you'll see & do
- ✓An Asheville mayor killed himself in the Jackson building. How may people have jumped from the top? And why is there a bulls-eye on the sidewalk below? Learn about the ghoul of the old jail, Thomas Wolfe's ghost, Helen's Bridge, and more!
- ✓Hear the controversial story of the murder of Helen Clevenger in the Battery Park Hotel, and why a blood-red haze is said to appear around her murder-room window on the anniversary of the tragedy.
- ✓This building's architect is entombed in the wall of this church, and his apparition is seen roaming in the night, gazing, in awe, at the world-class dome he constructed with a secret method.
- ✓The spirits of the great author (Look Homeward, Angel), and his brother, roam the halls of this storied mansion. Thomas Wolfe even wrote about spirits before he died at age 37. Wait till you hear the full story!
- ✓This is where troops rallied before the "Battle of Asheville" in the Civil War. Southern ghosts still violently shove some people to the ground, and spectral drums are heard beating in the night.
