Ghostly Tours in History

Ghostly Tours in History take places in San Diego, California and meet at The Living Room, Cafe and Bistro in San Diego Avenue. However, gas lamp tours start from William Heath Davis House in Island Avenue on Fridays and Saturdays. The history of some of San Diego's haunted sites is provided by caretakers dressed in Victorian costume, who also provide some of the ghostly stories from these places.

Participants on the tours can expect to take in a variety of different places including purportedly haunted houses and streets as well as a few graveyards. Visitors are also promised a trip around the Gaslamp Quarter where murder, bloodlust and prostitution often occurred. Some of the locations visited include Furnald House, Horton Grand Hotel, Pioneer Park, La Casa Larga and the Star of India, which is one of the ships in port with a history of ghostly sightings.

Tours include a limousine ride that takes visitors to a variety of locations from 6.30pm Fridays and Saturdays and lasts three hours. Group tours can be booked with passenger limousine buses for 17 or 24 people and bus tours are offered for a minimum of 20 people. As well as limo and walking tours, hour long séances at Furnald House are conducted in Victorian dress.
