Overview

The most immersive way to see Historic Portland is on foot. Our 60-minute walking tour takes you down the cobblestone pathways of our historic city in search of spirits that linger from times long past.

Our knowledgeable guides will enchant you with tales of Portland’s most renown ghosts as well as the area's vast and rich history. You’ll hear fascinating and spooky tales from the first European settlement in 1632 right up to the present day. Discover the many times Portland has fallen and risen anew, and hear about the restless spirits who remain, unable or unwilling to move on.

Follow our guides as they lead you by lantern-light sharing the ghost stories, legends, and folklore of this beautiful city.
