Last Chance for Haunted Statesville Ghost Tours in 2023

Last Updated 10/2/2023In Statesville News, Events

What spirits lurk in Downtown Statesville?

Have you ever wandered past the old Fourth Creek Burying Ground and seen the shadow of the unknown soldier buried there? Did you grow up hearing stories about the ghost of a young girl spotted over and over again dripping wet in the Vance Hotel? Don't miss your chance to enjoy a walking ghost tour full of old stories and legends from Statesville’s past. Step beyond the beauty of Statesville’s historic downtown and discover its true haunted history--where tales of spirits, scary creatures, mysterious deaths, and creepy alleys become real. Guided by The Sharpe House Historic Players, you will be enthralled on your journey into the spirit realm on select evenings throughout the fall.

This month will be the final tours for 2023.  We will offer four tours each evening at 6:30pm, 7pm, 7:30pm and 8pm on October 20, 21, 27 & 28. Tickets are $15 per person. Tours are limited to 20 people per tour and advance registration/tickets are required.  

Tour is recommended for children 8 years and older. Some stops are not easily stroller/wheelchair accessible. Tours WILL SELL OUT, so don't wait!  Haunted Statesville Ghost Tours are provided to you thanks to Downtown Statesville Development Corporation, The Historic Sharpe House, The Sharpe House Historic Players and The City of Statesville.
