Public Hospital
Williamsburg’s first hospital for the mentally ill was designed to be a beacon of hope for the underprivileged. Instead, like most hospitals in that era, it became a house of horrors. Discover its dirty secrets and the spirits forever trapped in this eternal prison.
Jones Cemetery + Secretary’s Office
Tourgoers are treated to a two-for-one at this location. Located next to one of the oldest cemeteries in Williamsburg, the Secretary's Office is not only cursed by tragic events but infested by the spirits of the unclaimed dead buried in the cemetery.
Public Gaol
Initially designed for temporary use, this former prison became a permanent home to the inmates who died violent deaths within its walls. Standing outside of this forsaken building evokes a heavy sense of dread, and it only gets more terrifying when you hear the horrifying tales from its early days.
There are some locations that are so spooky they require a ghost tour all their own. The Ultimate Dead of Night Ghost Tour is designed to put a spotlight on these locations in a way that emphasizes their deeply blood-chilling nature.
Based on historical research and chilling eyewitness accounts, this tour delves into Williamsburg’s scariest ghost stories and local legends. Experience the eerie presence of Williamsburg’s permanent residents as we uncover strange activity at a colonial-era jail and residual energy at America’s first mental asylum.
Uncover hauntings that span from pre-colonial times to present day, each one more creepy than the last. The narratives you’ll hear are chillingly real and told in the very spots they occurred.
