Explore Birmingham’s haunted churches, hotels, and riot-era history on a 90-minute evening walk with local stories, architecture, and ghostly tales.

“Save your money. We paid $200 for a guide that was clearly high on something, realed of booze,and blew smoke in our face from his pipe. He was semi incoherent and rambled along with many stray thoughts, opinions, and biases thrown into his speech. He repeatedly banged on furnace vents, signs and dumpsters trying to scare the people on the tour. One of his speeches detailed graphic descriptions of how a lobotomy is preformed. The end culminated in a rubber axe being thrown at people. He managed to hit my daughter in the jaw, my other daughter in the stomach and me in the leg.”

Explore Birmingham after dark on this one-hour ghost walk, with historic landmarks, local legends, guides Liz and Madison, and practical tips.

“I had the Birmingham walking ghost tour with Madison, was absolutely fantastic! From the very first stop, I was hooked. Our guide was an amazing storyteller—engaging, funny, and just the right amount of spooky. You could tell they knew the city’s haunted history inside and out, weaving in real historical facts with chilling local legends. Walking through Birmingham’s old streets and hearing about its darker past gave the city a whole new vibe. The stories were creepy without being over-the-top, and the atmosphere after dark made it all feel so authentic. We visited some truly eerie spots I would’ve never known about otherwise. This tour is a must-do for locals…”
