2.Memphis Haunted History Bus Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 170 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $32

This 90-minute evening bus tour pairs Memphis ghost stories with local history. Guides such as Matt, James, and Keith may lead the outing, with stops at two historic mansions, Court Square, and Chickasaw Heritage Park. Expect a small group, some walking, paranormal equipment, and a spooky mood that leans more historical than terrifying.

“We were expecting a 2 hour tour which actually lasted for less than 1.5 hours. The tour guide said she was left the wrong tablet, therefore couldn't give us some of the information. Later she couldn't find photos on the tablet which were relevant to the tour. I'm sorry to say that overall, it was a disappointing tour.”
