Tarpon Springs Ghost Tour

Tarpon Springs may be known for its sponge docks and rich Greek heritage, but after dark, another side of the city comes alive.

Join Ace Chapman, screenwriter and longtime local guide, on the original and longest-running Tarpon Springs ghost tour. This small-group nighttime walking tour explores the haunted streets of downtown Tarpon Springs, uncovering documented true crime, local legends, and reported paranormal activity connected to historic landmarks such as the Train Depot, the Cheney House, and the Meres Building — all viewed from the outside as you experience Florida’s darker past.

Locally owned and operated, this haunted history tour was established before national chains entered the area. There are no scripted theatrics and no manufactured jump scares — just well-researched history, authentic storytelling, and real accounts shared with honesty and respect.

Guests may have the opportunity to use professional ghost-hunting equipment, including a spirit box, during select moments of the tour. Some participants have reported unexplained responses, though experiences vary from night to night.

Each Tarpon Springs ghost tour is shaped by the evening, the group, and the stories uncovered along the way. This outdoor walking experience is designed for guests seeking an atmospheric, interactive, and historically grounded look at one of Tampa Bay’s most intriguing haunted locations — presented by the guide who started it all.

Serving visitors from Tarpon Springs, Palm Harbor, Clearwater, and the greater Tampa Bay area.
