Night settles over the squares of Savannah like a slow tide; gas lamps pick out the edges of cobblestone and Spanish moss drips from live oaks as a guide gathers the group at Tomochichi’s Rock in Wright Square. On the Savannah Hauntings Tour, the city’s history moves from textbook into the realm of eyewitness accounts—footsteps and voices described by residents, reports cited from Margaret DeBolt’s and Robert Edgerly’s collections, and references to Drums and Shadows from the 1930s WPA Writer’s Project.

Savannah’s grid and oak-lined squares date to James Oglethorpe’s 18th-century plan; the city’s low coastal plain and nearby salt marshes shaped not only its mercantile rise but its cemeteries and hidden corners where stories persist. The walk threads past Colonial Park Cemetery, stately brick townhouses, and narrow lanes where the interplay of architecture and climate concentrates memory and rumor.
Practical guidance is straightforward: this is a 90-minute urban walking tour that departs nightly at 9 p.m., operates in all but the most extreme conditions, and is presented by a professional guide who references documented accounts. Expect uneven sidewalks, short staircases, and pockets of dim light—good footwear and a light jacket matter more than theatrics. Photography is allowed, but be mindful of private property and preserve quiet for neighbors. The operator welcomes pets and offers wheelchair-accessible features; reservations are recommended to secure a spot. Arrive 10 minutes early at Wright Square with your mobile ticket and ID, and be ready to listen—Savannah’s past often speaks in small, human details rather than grand gestures.
