St. Augustine, Florida, stands as America's oldest settled city, its winding streets and historic landmarks echoing stories from centuries past. Yet, beneath its sun-drenched façade lies a rich tapestry of ghost stories and paranormal mysteries that continue to thrill visitors. Spyglass Travel’s Ghost Tour of St. Augustine offers a 90-minute journey into this shadowy side of the city, led by a seasoned paranormal investigator whose insights bring history to life—and sometimes, beyond. As night falls, guests follow a path through sites like Huguenot and Tolomato Cemeteries, where centuries-old gravestones and haunting tales set the stage for an authentic paranormal experience.
What makes this tour stand out is its hands-on approach. Participants learn the tools and techniques of investigation, such as EMF meters and spirit boxes, while uncovering true stories of ghostly encounters.
