Overview

Ghost stories are one of the most ancient holiday traditions with roots dating back to Solstice celebrations. Join us on our walk through Mystic to hear some of tales of scariest Christmas creatures, the most spine chilling Christmas games and spirits and the true meaning of the spirit of Christmas. From native tradition to Dickensian spirit, the tales will make you think of Christmas and Mystic in a whole new way. It's not just Saint Nicholas flying through the sky but plenty of other beings and spirits as well -- some are good and some perhaps more nefarious....

Our host is very knowledgeable and pleasant as well. despite it being 13° out, she walked through the village, making us laugh and explaining us all about Mystic and the spirits

Very engaging and interesting!

It was a super chilly night but our guide Sia was cheerful, engaging and informative! The stories were spooky and interesting. Highly recommend this tour.

Chilly and Chilling Insight into Mystic's Bloody Past

Published on Dec, 2024

We took the 7 pm tour so we could get the full spooky vibe. It was a very cold December night and got colder as time went on. Despite all that, our guide Kim was full of energy and tales of days gone by. She told stories of European and Irish folklore that has informed our Halloween and Christmas holidays to the present day. Kim also was very knowledgable of local history, some of it very unsavory. Mystic has some very old buildings and the land underneath, of course, is even more ancient. I definitely want to go back to some of the restaurants she brought us to as part of the tour to see their interiors and maybe catch a ghost!

So cool!

My friends and I went on the ghosts of Christmas past tour led by AJ . He was witty , animated, and very knowledgeable. The mixture of interesting history facts , coupled with some “creepy “ stories of ghosts and death made it super cool and entertaining ! It was an enjoyable couple of hours and something I wouid recommend to others. Thank you AJ!
