Chesapeake Ghost Walks: Haunts of Pocomoke City & Beyond

In the heart of Maryland’s Eastern Shore, Chesapeake Ghost Walks offers an on-foot invitation to encounter the region’s supernatural past across Pocomoke City and several nearby towns. These guided tours transform historic streets and waterfronts into stages where forgotten stories surface under dusk-lit skies. Anchored in Pocomoke City, locally known as the “Friendliest Town on the Eastern Shore,” the company threads together sites of eerie murders, Colonial-era secrets, and whispered local legends that shape the cultural fabric here.

Their signature experiences include the Ocean City Ghost Walks amid Atlantic breezes, the Ghosts of the Golden Hour Sunset Cruise along the waterfront, and spine-tingling walks in Salisbury, Berlin, Snow Hill, Denton, Princess Anne, Cambridge, and St. Michaels. Each walk reveals the architecture and landscapes that held the scenes of mysterious disappearances, age-old hauntings, and folklore whispered from generation to generation.

Unlike traditional ghost tours that rely solely on theatrics, Chesapeake Ghost Walks anchors their storytelling in the distinct history and geography of Maryland’s coastal towns. Night falls over cobblestone streets lined with weathered brick and wooden houses, mossy oaks dripping with Spanish moss, and silent waterways meandering into the Chesapeake Bay. The twilight ambiance intensifies the experience, syncing natural history with paranormal intrigue.

This enterprise broadens outdoor recreation beyond physical exertion—engaging visitors in a unique blend of history, culture, and environment that few other regional tours offer. Whether you’re drawn by maritime legends or spectral lore, these walks create an active connection to place, showing how the natural and built environment preserve stories that couldn’t be told anywhere else. Chesapeake Ghost Walks stands as a must-do on Maryland’s Eastern Shore for travelers seeking a different kind of night adventure.
