Historical Haunts operates guided ghost and cultural tours in Memphis, Tennessee. The company offers three distinct experiences: the Memphis Brew Bus craft-beer tour, The Original Haunted Memphis Bus Tour, and a Haunted Pub Crawl in Downtown Memphis. Each experience is led by trained, entertaining guides who combine local history with storytelling and, on haunted tours, hands-on paranormal investigation.
The Memphis Brew Bus is a Saturday-afternoon craft brewing tour that visits three local breweries with a pint or flight at each stop and includes a non-drinking driver for a worry-free outing. The Original Haunted Memphis Bus Tour is a 90-minute guided route through notable locations such as Court Square and Victorian Village, featuring ghost-hunting equipment and a focus on historic murders and hauntings. The Haunted Pub Crawl is a 2.5-hour evening experience for adults 21 and over, pairing spooky local lore with stops at three downtown taverns.
Historical Haunts emphasizes safety and local knowledge. Tours follow established routes and use booked stops at partner venues. Paranormal equipment on investigative tours is used for guest participation and potential evidence collection, while beverage tours include responsible transport arrangements. Historical Haunts markets activities clearly, including age restrictions where required. The business is based in Memphis and draws on the city's documented history and folklore to create immersive, informative experiences. Visitors can expect guided storytelling, curated stops, and an emphasis on both entertainment and historical context. Reservations are available through the business website and third-party partners.
