Martha's Vineyard · A Ghost Tour

Haunted
Edgartown

A 90-minute ghost tour of Martha's Vineyard. Ghost stories, legends, and strange truths from one of the oldest and most haunted corners of the island. A walk during which the veil between then and now wears thin.

Step Through the Veil

§ I — The Manifest

Equal parts history, mystery, and theatrical flair: served with a wink and a whisper from the other side.

Welcome to Haunted Edgartown. You'll explore the dark side of this charming town in a 90-minute, guided storytelling experience. Along the way you'll hear tales of shipwrecks and sea curses, buried secrets, the first execution on the island, and the ghosts said to linger in its oldest houses.

The route winds past some of Edgartown's oldest, most haunted homes and churches, with a stop at each to share the ghost story behind it. Perfect for curious adults, brave teens, and anyone who enjoys a chill down the spine.

Storyteller · Edgartown, Martha's Vineyard

§ II — Your Host

Meet your guide, Seamus.

A longtime collector of the stories this island keeps after dark. For ninety minutes at a time, he gathers them and passes them along to anyone willing to walk the route.

§ III — Whispers from the Fog

A town rife with haunted houses. You'll hear tales out of each, stories that refuse to remain buried.

The Burying Ground

Before they were certain, a string was left to the surface with a bell to ring it. A few on this island were lowered in before their time, and not all of them stayed put.

Skull & Crossbones

Skull and bones, cut into Island stone: a reminder of the end. The stories say some of the dead here have needed no reminding to come back.

Seamus is a skilled storyteller and guide for our spooky tour through Haunted Edgartown. With a deep knowledge of Island history and lore, Seamus kept us rapt - and gently led those who weren't 100% engaged back to the fold with wit and ease. We had a terrific evening exploring Edgartown and learning all the creepy stories. 10/10 Highly Recommend

Interesting stories, a dose of humor, prowling Edgartown streets after dark. This is the tour I've been waiting for. Thank you to Seamus, our most excellent guide. If you're on the fence about booking, just do it. A word to the wise - take the bus in. The parking situation in Edgartown is ridiculous!

What an awesome tour! Seamus was full of energy as he walked us through the haunted sites in town sharing stories and lore along the way. Our whole group of 12 - preteen to adult had such a blast. A great way to spend in an evening in Edgartown! Highly recommended.
