Savannah Haunted Pub Crawl & Historic District Ghost Tour
Four Bars, One Haunted District, and Spirits Both Kinds
You'll visit four haunted bars in Savannah's historic district with a local guide who knows the dark history of each location. The tour includes stops at Savannah Taphouse, Abe's on Lincoln, 17hundred90, and McDonoughs, plus walks through genuinely old streets where you'll hear about real events. Drinks are on you at each bar; the tour covers the guide and a closing cleansing ritual. Plan for an evening out, not a history class.

The Experience
The tour was supposed to start at 7pm sharp, but our guide showed up at 6:55 with two coffees and an apology — the Flip Flop Shop at 100 Bull Street had a delivery truck blocking the door. He laughed it off, checked his phone for the route, and we were moving by 7:03. That's the thing about a Savannah haunted pub crawl: it's loose enough that a five-minute delay doesn't throw the whole night. We'd hit four or five bars across the North Historic District, stop at a couple of genuinely creepy locations between drinks, and end with something called a cleansing ritual that nobody quite understood until it happened.
The bars themselves weren't what I expected. Savannah Taphouse came first — crowded, normal lighting, people watching a game on the screens. But the guide started talking about the building's past while we stood at the bar, and suddenly the place felt different, older. We moved to Abe's on Lincoln next, then 17hundred90, where the air actually felt colder in one corner of the upstairs room. McDonoughs was the last official stop, but between each bar we'd wander through the historic district's narrow streets, past squares and old buildings, while the guide pointed out where things had happened — deaths, hauntings, the weight of Savannah's actual history underneath the Spanish moss and the tourist shops. It wasn't theatrical. It was just information delivered while you walked, which somehow made it stick.
The group stayed small — maybe twelve people — so you could actually hear what the guide was saying and ask questions without feeling like you were holding up a line. The drinks came from whatever bar you were in, so you paid as you went; nothing was pre-included except the tour itself and the knowledge. By the time we circled back near the end, we did the cleansing ritual — something quick and a bit silly, meant to shake off any spirits that might've followed you — and then people drifted off into the night. It's not a heavy tour. It's not a lecture. It's a reason to walk through one of the oldest neighborhoods in the country with someone who knows what happened there, and to stop for a drink while you do it.
What’s included
