Savannah gets spooky after sunset. I like the focus on documented hauntings and the chance to hear stories inside old bars, cemeteries, and historic sites rather than standing in one spot all evening. I also like the small group limit of 15, which can make it easier to hear the guide and ask questions. The main drawback is that the experience depends heavily on weather, open bars, and good organization.

At $36 per person, the tour can be a fair deal if you want an evening walk with several drinking stops. Drinks cost extra, and the tour does not include transportation, so you should arrive ready to walk between downtown locations. Recent experiences have varied: guides such as Bailey earned strong praise, while bad weather, closed venues, and confusion over transportation caused serious problems for some people.

Key points to know before booking

Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits Haunted Pub Crawl - Key points to know before booking

  • Four drinking stops: The route includes the 17Hundred90 Inn, The Original Pinkie Masters, Six Pence Pub, and Savannah Taphouse.
  • Ghost stories between bars: You visit an old burying ground, a historic hotel, a famous square, and the Jewish section of a cemetery.
  • Drinks are extra: The $36 price covers the tour and fees, not beverages at the pubs.
  • Walking is part of the plan: Transportation is not included, and one troubling experience involved a bus that did not arrive.
  • Small groups help: The maximum group size is 15 people, making this more personal than a large evening tour.
  • Weather can change the night: Bad conditions have led to closed stops and an early finish, so check the forecast before committing.

A ghost tour with a glass in hand

Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits Haunted Pub Crawl - A ghost tour with a glass in hand

Savannah is a natural setting for this kind of night. Its old squares, burial grounds, hotels, theaters, and pubs give the guide plenty of material, and the route mixes indoor stops with short walks through the historic center.

This is not simply a bar crawl with a few ghost stories added at the end. The plan moves between drinking spots and paranormal locations, so you get some local history along with your beverage stops. That combination suits you if you prefer a social evening to a formal museum tour.

The stated duration is about two hours. Each bar stop is listed at roughly 10 minutes, which means much of the night is spent walking, listening, and moving from one story location to the next. You should not expect a long sit-down session at every pub.

The company describes the stories as researched and supported by documented accounts. That wording matters. The guide is meant to present specific tales tied to real buildings and places, not just tell a string of vague campfire stories.

More Haunted Pub Crawls in Savannah

Starting at the 17Hundred90 Inn

The tour begins at 307 East President Street and first visits the 17Hundred90 Inn and Restaurant. You stop for a drink and hear about the ghost said to haunt the restaurant.

The story centers on a spirit described as very set in her ways. That detail gives the tale a personality, which is often more memorable than a generic account of footsteps or cold spots. The setting also fits the mood: an old inn and restaurant provides a natural backdrop for stories tied to former residents and long-running local lore.

The stop is listed at about 10 minutes. That is enough time to hear the main account and order a drink, but not enough for a full meal or an extended stay. Admission is not included, and drinks are not included in the tour price, so plan to pay separately at each bar.

From here, the route moves toward an old burying ground. The exact name is not provided, but the stop is intended to explain the cemetery’s past and the ghosts associated with it. This part of the tour gives the evening a quieter change of pace after the restaurant stop.

You may find this section more atmospheric than the pub visits, especially if you enjoy hearing how burial grounds fit into the city’s long story. It is also one reason sensible shoes matter. The tour requires a moderate level of physical fitness, and you should be prepared to walk between stops.

A drink and trivia at The Original Pinkie Masters

Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits Haunted Pub Crawl - A drink and trivia at The Original Pinkie Masters

The second pub stop is The Original Pinkie Masters. You stop for another drink and hear trivia about the location, along with its haunted associations.

This stop appears to lean a little more toward local character and unusual facts than the first pub. That variety is useful. A good haunted crawl needs more than repeated ghost claims, and trivia can show how a bar fits into Savannah’s social past.

Again, the listed stop lasts about 10 minutes. If you want to enjoy your drink slowly, you may feel rushed. If you see this as a tasting-style crawl, with short visits and several locations, the timing makes more sense.

After the bar, you hear about unusual occurrences at a historic hotel. The itinerary does not name the hotel, so you should not book this expecting a specific famous property. The appeal is the contrast between a public drinking spot and a hotel associated with strange events.

The guide’s role is especially important here. One strong experience praised Bailey for doing an excellent job, and another gave high marks to the guide’s stories and drink recommendations. That tells you what can make or break the night: the stops provide the setting, but the guide provides the energy, context, and pacing.

Six Pence Pub and the haunted square

Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits Haunted Pub Crawl - Six Pence Pub and the haunted square

The third drinking stop is Six Pence Pub. You hear the haunted history of the pub while having another drink, with the visit again lasting about 10 minutes.

Three short pub visits can work well if you want variety. You are not locked into one bar for the full evening, and the route gives you several chances to see different interiors. At the same time, you should keep your expectations in check. This is not a pub package with drinks included, reserved seating, or a set tasting menu.

Between stops, the guide discusses a famous Savannah square and the ghosts associated with it. Savannah’s squares are an important part of the city’s identity, so this portion helps connect the supernatural stories to the streets you are walking through.

The square stop is also a practical reminder that this is a walking tour. You need to keep up with the group and be comfortable outdoors. Rain, heat, and other weather can affect how much you enjoy the evening.

Bad weather has caused real trouble for this experience. On one occasion, two planned locations were closed and the tour ended about 30 minutes early. The best advice is simple: check the forecast, wear suitable clothing, and contact the operator if conditions look poor before the cancellation deadline.

Same streets, an entirely different kind of scare:

The cemetery’s Jewish section

Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits Haunted Pub Crawl - The cemetery’s Jewish section

Another outdoor stop focuses on the Jewish section of a historic cemetery. The guide explains the ghosts said to linger there and places those stories within the cemetery’s setting.

This is one of the more distinctive parts of the route. It moves beyond familiar pub folklore and introduces a specific section of a burial ground with its own cultural and historical context. You should listen respectfully and remember that a cemetery is not just a stage for spooky entertainment.

The supplied details do not identify the cemetery by name or provide a full account of the stories. That means the guide’s presentation matters greatly. If your interest is mainly in serious local history, you may want to treat this as a short introduction rather than a full cemetery tour.

The outdoor stops also help break up the drinking portions. You get time to walk, hear a story, and look around before entering the next bar. For people who want a night with both history and conversation, that mix may feel more satisfying than a standard bar crawl.

Ending at Savannah Taphouse

Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits Haunted Pub Crawl - Ending at Savannah Taphouse

The tour ends at Savannah Taphouse, at 125 East Broughton Street. The building was converted from an old theater, giving the final stop a strong setting for one more drink and a last piece of haunted history.

The end point is useful if you want to continue your night downtown. You can finish with a drink, make your own dinner plans, or head back toward other central Savannah attractions. The tour does not include transportation afterward, so you are responsible for getting back to your accommodation.

The final stop is listed as free admission, but that does not mean your drink is free. The tour price covers fees and taxes connected with the experience, professional guides, and the researched stories. Your beverages remain separate.

Because the tour ends at a bar rather than returning to the starting point, pay attention to the route before booking. This is not a loop. Start at East President Street and finish on East Broughton Street.

Is $36 a fair price?

Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits Haunted Pub Crawl - Is $36 a fair price?

The $36 fee is reasonable if you value the guide-led route and want several historic stops arranged in one evening. You are paying for the organization, the storytelling, and access to a planned sequence of pubs and paranormal locations, not for drinks or transportation.

The value improves if you already planned to buy a few drinks. You can use the tour to find several bars while hearing stories that you would not get from simply walking downtown alone. The value drops if you expect a full pub package, reserved tables, or long visits at each location.

You should budget extra money for drinks at the 17Hundred90 Inn, The Original Pinkie Masters, Six Pence Pub, and Savannah Taphouse. Since each stop is brief, you may also want to keep your orders simple so you do not fall behind the group.

One concern comes from a transportation misunderstanding. A participant expected a bus, but no bus arrived and six people had to walk. The official details say transportation is not included, so you should plan this as a walking tour and not rely on a shuttle.

Group size, pace, and guide quality

Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits Haunted Pub Crawl - Group size, pace, and guide quality

The maximum group size is 15 people. That is small enough for a more personal atmosphere, though the actual quality still depends on the guide and how well the evening is managed.

A strong guide can turn a short stop into a memorable one. Bailey received especially warm praise, and another positive experience highlighted a guide’s stories and drink suggestions. These comments point to the best version of the tour: a friendly leader who keeps the group moving while giving enough detail to make each site feel connected.

Organization has not been consistent for everyone. One account described the bar element as poorly arranged and the stories as not detailed enough. You should book this knowing that the experience may feel polished one night and less coordinated another night.

The company says the stories are intensely researched and based on documented hauntings. That is a useful promise, but the actual depth will depend on how the guide presents them. If you want an academic history lecture, this is probably not the right format. If you want accessible stories tied to real places, it may work well.

Who should book this Savannah ghost crawl?

I would recommend it most strongly to adults who want a social evening, enjoy ghost lore, and do not mind buying their own drinks. It also suits people who prefer a small-group outing with several stops instead of a large bus tour.

The tour may appeal to first-time visitors who want a quick introduction to downtown Savannah after dark. You get a route, a guide, and a reason to visit several old pubs without having to plan the evening yourself.

You may want to skip it if you dislike walking, have limited mobility, or want a quiet seated tour. The itinerary includes outdoor cemetery and square stops, and the company asks for a moderate level of physical fitness. Service animals are allowed, and the meeting area is near public transportation.

Weather-sensitive visitors should be cautious. A rainy night can affect both the outdoor portions and the bar schedule. The cancellation policy allows a full refund when you cancel at least 24 hours before the start time, but cancellations inside that window are not refunded.

Should you book Savannah Terrors Spirits & Spirits?

Book it if you want a reasonably priced, two-hour night of ghost stories, short pub visits, and historic downtown walking. The best parts are the varied route, the small group limit, the documented-story focus, and the chance to hear a strong guide such as Bailey bring the stops to life.

I would not book it expecting a bus, included drinks, a full meal, or guaranteed access to every venue in bad weather. Treat it as a guided haunted walk with pub stops, not an all-inclusive nightlife package.

For the best chance of a good evening, arrive ready to walk, check the weather, keep your drink budget separate, and confirm the meeting details before you go. At $36, it is worth considering if the atmosphere and storytelling matter more to you than long bar visits.
