Ghosts of Key West: Haunted History Walking Tour

Begin your journey at River Street Sweets—where the sugar fades and the spirits stir.

St. Paul’s Episcopal Church may be a place of worship by day, but as night falls, its shadowy graveyard and storm-battered walls tell a darker tale. Built atop old burial grounds and ravaged by hurricanes, legend says restless spirits roam the pews and the grounds—drawn by unmarked graves and unsettled history. Some visitors feel watched... others never return after dark.

Locals whisper that he moves, changes expressions, and even causes misfortune to those who mock him. With button eyes and a sailor suit, he may look innocent—but legend says he’s anything but. Step too close, and you might just feel him watching...

Beneath the lush canopy of Key West’s tropical gardens stands the elegant yet eerie Audubon House—where whispers of the past still linger. Once home to shipwreck salvagers and surrounded by death, tragedy, and ghostly tales, the house is said to echo with unexplained footsteps and flickering lights. Some claim the spirits of the original owners never left… and neither will their secrets

Once the tallest building in Key West, it’s seen its share of tragedy, from mysterious deaths to guests who checked in... but never left. Ghostly figures are said to wander the halls, elevators move on their own, and whispers echo in empty rooms. Stay too long, and you might just become part of the legend.

Built by a grieving man for his lost love, some say her spirit never left. Guests report cold spots, flickering lights, and the feeling of being watched. Romantic… or haunted? You decide. But beware—once you stay, the spirits may never want you to leave.
