Are you interested in spine-tingling tales of ghost sightings?  Philadelphia, one of America’s oldest cities, is rumored to be a haunted city with its rich history of terrible mishaps, unsolved murders and paranormal encounters.

Allen Batista Travel, Inc. knowledgeable and friendly tour guides will tell tales about the city’s dark and frightening history and the eerie experiences that have contributed to the city's reputation as a haunted city.   There are two ways to experience Philadelphia's eerie past: in-person and virtual Philadelphia ghost walking tours.

Philadelphia Is A Haunted City—Why Is That?

Philadelphia's dark past contributes to its reputation as a haunted city. The city's historic brick buildings, narrow lanes, and cobblestone alleys bore testament to a gloomy past that has been marked by tragic mishaps, mysterious killings, and unsettling contacts with the supernatural.

As travelers stroll through Philadelphia's Old City, they will discover some of the nation's oldest and most spooky buildings, streets, and monuments. Every place on the ghost walking tour has undergone extensive research and study to verify the supernatural sightings.

A Look Back At Philadelphia's Haunted Past

Philadelphia's history is filled with tragedy, upheaval, and paranormal events that have contributed to the city's image as a haunted place. Our in-person and virtual Philadelphia ghost walking tour explores some of the most well-known haunted places in the city and the chilling stories.

Bishop White's House

Bishop White’s House, one of Philadelphia's oldest still-standing homes, dates back to 1787. The mansion has been the site of many significant historical events, but it is also thought to be haunted by an enigmatic woman in white. Visitors have reported seeing the apparition pacing the hallways, looking for someone or something.

Historic Tales At City Hall

Although Philadelphia's famous City Hall plays a significant role in city politics, the building conceals a sinister secret.  It is reported that a construction worker's ghost, who perished tragically while working on the tower, lingers around the building. Rumor has it that the ghost saunters close to the tower where the fatal incident took place.

Walnut Street Theater's Resident Ghost

The Walnut Street Theatre, the nation's oldest continually running theater, has experienced its fair share of spooky incidents. It is reported that "Gus," a beloved spirit of a previous stagehand, helps backstage and sees to it that every performance goes off without any problems.

The Hill-Physick-Keith House's White Lady

The magnificent Physick House is home to a ghostly lady in white and she is believed to be Dr. Philip Syng Physick's wife Elizabeth Coates Paschall. Her ghost has been seen walking through the rooms, giving the mansion an intriguing new dimension.

Pennsylvania Hospital

Founded in 1751, Pennsylvania Hospital is one of the first hospitals in the country and one of its most spooky locations in the city. The ghost of Dr. Thomas Bond, one of the hospital's founders, is said to frequently be seen wandering the halls. Spooky tales tell stories of strange noises, cries, and whispers from patients and staff have been heard on the deserted hallways.

Independence Hall

Independence Hall has a crucial historical significance as the site of American independence. However, there are rumors that Revolutionary War warriors still patrol the grounds and protect the values and ideals created within its walls.

Eastern State Penitentiary

Eastern State Penitentiary is one of Philadelphia's most haunted locations. The penitentiary, once a renowned prison, is now in ruins. Tall tales of ghostly apparitions and disturbing sounds reverberate through the halls have been amplified by the crumbling cell blocks.  Many people think that former convicts' souls still linger inside the jail.

Philadelphia's haunted house stories are more than simply eerie legends. They serve as windows into the city's illustrious past, shedding light on the struggles, successes, and lives of those who came before us.

Our in person and virtual Philadelphia ghost tour transports guests past old brick structures, twisting lanes, and recognizable monuments hide a shadowy past. The live ghost walking tour is a great activity for both history buffs and paranormal enthusiasts.
