St Augustine: Haunted Walking Tour with Real Paranormal Evidence

Summary

Walk old streets at night hear true ghost stories see real evidence

You’ll follow a local guide through St Augustine’s shadowy streets on this haunted walking tour—hearing true ghost stories at Castillo de San Marcos and two historic cemeteries. Listen to real EVP recordings captured by investigators and see photos of possible apparitions as you learn what really happened at each spot. It’s eerie, sometimes funny, always human—and you might find yourself glancing back as you walk home.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing I noticed was the way the streetlights flickered as we gathered outside Castillo de San Marcos. Maybe it was just my nerves, but even the air felt heavier than usual—kind of salty and thick, like it was holding its breath. Our guide, Jamie, started off by playing an audio clip they’d captured right here. I half expected it to be a cheap trick, but when that raspy whisper came through his phone (it sounded like “leave”), I actually got goosebumps. Someone behind me muttered “nope,” and honestly, same.

We shuffled along the old stone walls while Jamie told us about soldiers who never really left the fort. He had this way of mixing dry humor with these weirdly specific facts—like how the Spanish built secret tunnels under our feet—and then he’d pause and let us listen to another EVP. Sometimes you could almost smell the damp earth from the moat, or maybe that was just my imagination running wild. The main keyword here is haunted walking tour St Augustine, but what stuck with me was how normal Jamie made all this sound—like ghosts were just part of the city’s DNA.

Stopping outside Tolomato Cemetery, I tried to peek between the iron bars (not sure what I expected to see). Jamie played a recording from their investigation—the voice on it sounded like a child laughing? It was oddly sad and not at all what I pictured from TV shows. A couple next to me held hands tighter. We talked about Judge Stickney and his missing headstone; someone joked about bad karma and we all laughed too loud for a second. The night air smelled faintly of flowers and something older—maybe moss or old wood.

The last stop was Casa de Suenos—a bed and breakfast now, but once a funeral home (I didn’t know that before). There’s something strange about standing outside a place where people used to say goodbye forever. Jamie showed us a blurry photo with a shape in one window; I’m still not sure if it was a trick of the light or something else entirely. Either way, walking back down Aviles Street after hearing those stories and voices—I kept glancing over my shoulder. Not scared exactly… just sort of aware that some places remember more than others.
