Berlin Ghost Walk

Join us for a ghostly walk in the historic town of Berlin - the town with a legend of the "Walking Dead, the Elemental and the Healing Tree."

Take a spooky nighttime walk through America’s coolest town - just 15 minutes from Ocean City. Hear about the child who haunts the historic Atlantic Hotel, a spirit who hides in an antique store basement, the Lady in White standing by the bank and apparitions of people long dead are seen walking the street.

Touch the healing tree and walk in the steps of "the Elemental" that haunts a spot near the old rail line. And take a nighttime stroll through a very old, dark graveyard, and hear the sad story of the Carey family who lost four children during the Civil War era. Learn about a "ley line" that runs through the town.

Our Berlin tour has the strangest energy our of all our eleven Eastern Shore ghost walks.
