Why choose this Providence tour ?

Our company has been a member of the Providence community for nearly two decades. Our company is a walking, haunted history tour of Providence’s College Hill neighborhood.

Our guides lead guests by lantern light as we explore the history, mystery, legends, and lore of our city. Learn about different types of hauntings, our spirits’ most current activities, and the dark tales that have been forgotten over time. Our tour is a wonderful blend of history and mystery, perfect for believers and skeptics alike!

The tour includes a portion of College Hill. We have chosen the most walkable route, but it is indeed a hill and our streets are old. Please wear shoes that are comfortable and stable. It is also outdoors, so be sure to dress for the weather.

What makes Haunted History Walking Tour of Providence a unique experience ?

Groups will gather at the statue. Your guide will greet you and check you in, then begin with our first tale! Be sure to bring your camera and take pictures- there is no better place to see the city than Prospect Terrace Park.

We begin and end at this site, so you’ll have the opportunity to see it twice!
