About this Event

This is a family-friendly ghost tour through Georgetown to see this exclusive neighborhood's darker side. Stroll among the historic streets, manicured gardens, and Victorian row houses as you hear stories and deep, dark secrets about DC’s finest neighborhood's forgotten past.

  • We will see one of the most haunted and historic buildings in Washington, DC, the Old Stone House. A pre-Revolutionary home whose original builder may still roam the halls.
  • Look up at old porches painted Haint Blue to keep out the spirits from crossing over the porch. But what if the spirit was already inside?
  • Find out what happened at boarding schools turned hospitals during the American Civil War. Can you still hear the screams of amputations with no sedation?
  • Walk past the historic house whose lights turned off every night at the same time; a nanny's rules enforced long after her departure.
  • Meet an eccentric man who built stairs to nowhere, slept in a coffin and refused to add electricity to his 1799 home. Hear why one of our guides refuses to lead this tour because he has been stalking her for 10 years, flickering lights when she walks by.
  • End the tour at the Exorcist Stairs, featured in The Exorcist, and hear the true story that inspired a Georgetown student to write the book.
