What To Expect
Old City Cemetery
Old City Cemetery in Galveston is over 200 years old and is said to be one of the most unnerving sites in Texas. In that time, the cemetery has become the resting place for a menagerie of souls who bring a touch of mischief, mystique and the macabre to the island’s haunted history. You will meet “The Lady In Black” who will uncover the mysteries at the heart of Texas’ more unsettling stories.
We will tour historic gravestones & call for Spirits.

5.00We had the best time! Annette “The Lady in Black” was awesome! We absolutely loved the stories. Annette is very knowledgeable about the cemeteries, the history of the grave sites, and the history of Galveston in general. You can even bring ghost hunting gear! We didn’t, this trip, but will definitely do this tour again and bring the gear. She also gives plenty of picture taking opportunities.
Fun evening walk

3.00The tour guide was knowledgeable. I thought it was odd that for the first 20 minutes she wanted to show us pictures on her phone. She seen a bit crass. Otherwise it was ok. 👍🏼
