Creepy Crawl Night-Time Haunted Pub Walking Tour of Savannah’s Historic District
A night walk like this is hard to forget. This haunted pub crawl turns Savannah’s after-dark streets into a mix of historic bars and supernatural storytelling, with standout stops like Colonial Park Cemetery. I love that the tour keeps moving through real squares and pub doors, not just a lecture hall vibe.
Two things I really like: first, you get a guide-led blend of Savannah history and paranormal tales, often driven by guides praised in recent groups like Pierce MacIain, Andre, and Kelly. Second, the format gives you real downtime at each stop to buy a drink and use the restroom before the next leg.
One possible drawback: the spook level can vary. Some people want more ghost and less history, and a few reported the tone leaning heavier on general stories than nonstop hauntings.

Key takeaways before you go

- Six Pence Pub start: easy to find at 245 Bull St, and it sets the tone right away.
- Up to 4 local bars: the tour is built like a true pub crawl, not a sit-and-listen walk.
- Colonial Park Cemetery gate moment: you pause outside and hear the Button Gwinnett story linked to the oldest burial ground in town.
- Drinks are on you: you’re paying for the guide and the route, not for beer.
- Camera-friendly folklore: you can try to capture eerie orbs, though don’t expect proof—just fun.
- Max group size is 20: small enough to hear stories, large enough to still feel like a night out.
Entering the Haunted Pub Crawl Mood in Savannah

Savannah at night has a specific mood. The air feels different near the historic squares, and the street layout makes every turn feel like it could reveal something odd. That’s exactly what this tour leans into: a walk that feels social and atmospheric, with ghost stories threaded through the bars you stop at.
The format is built around motion. You’re not stuck at one spot while your guide reads a script. Instead, you move between classic Savannah pubs and historic bars, with your guide telling you what’s said to have happened there before—then you get a chance to reset with food-free, drink-optional breaks.
I also like the pacing concept: you’ll hear Savannah ghost lore, then see it reflected in the places you’re standing. Even when the stories tilt more historical than scary, the contrast works. You still get the sense of why locals talk about certain corners and courtyards like they matter.

Where You Meet and How the Route Ends (Six Pence to Wright Square)

Most of the night hinges on the meeting point. You start at 245 Bull St at the Six Pence Pub, where your guide meets the group and sets you up for the walk.
At the end, the tour finishes at Wright Square. The details also note that the end point may be at another local bar or historic square about a 5-minute walk from the start, and your guide helps you with directions or transport if needed. In practice, this means you should plan for a short final walk after the last stop.
This matters more than it sounds. Pub crawl logistics are where good tours feel smooth. If you’re the type who hates uncertainty, arrive a few minutes early at Six Pence so you’re not rushing in the dark.
The 2-Hour Structure: Bars, Stories, and Bathroom Breaks
This is approximately a 2-hour experience. During that time, you’ll visit 4+ local bars and other spooky Savannah sites, all while walking through the historic district after dark.
A few things are especially worth knowing:
- You’ll have time at each pub to buy drinks and use the restroom.
- Alcoholic drinks are not included, and food isn’t included either.
- You’re doing a walking route, so comfortable shoes are not optional.
Also, the tour’s description references sipping a to-go drink while you’re on the move. Even if the exact drink setup feels different group to group, the idea is consistent: you’re meant to keep the night going and not pause too long between stops.
In a perfect world, that means you’ll feel like you’re “doing Savannah” while you listen. In a less perfect world, too much time outside the bars (or not entering) would break the pub crawl fantasy. Some past groups reported that sort of mismatch, so if you’re specifically after sitting inside old bars with your drink in hand, go in with a flexible mindset.
Colonial Park Cemetery Outside the Gate: Button Gwinnett’s Strange Thread

One of the most specific, memorable moments on this tour happens at Colonial Park Cemetery, described as the oldest burial ground in town. Rather than touring deep into the cemetery, you pause outside the gate as your guide tells stories tied to the property.
The standout name here is Button Gwinnett. He was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and is one of the cemetery’s most famous residents. That’s a fun contrast: you get a national-history figure, but you hear the story told in a haunted-spot style.
If you like your ghost tours anchored to place and people, this stop is where you’ll feel it. It also helps explain why this crawl feels different from generic bar hopping. It’s not just about spooky vibes. It’s about the way Savannah remembers its past in public spaces.
One practical note from the vibe of the route: you might see the cemetery area more than once depending on how the group is moving. If you’re hoping for a nonstop new location after every minute, build in the possibility that the route loops slightly.
Classic Pubs, Local Night Energy, and Your Drink Choices

This crawl is built for people who want historic bars plus nightlife atmosphere. Your guide takes you to up to four local Savannah pubs & bars, and you get stories linked to those places.
The review themes line up with what you’ll likely experience:
- People praised guides for pairing storytelling with drink recommendations.
- Others liked the fact that the pubs themselves felt welcoming—like you weren’t just passersby getting pointed at a wall.
Since drinks aren’t included, you’ll choose what fits your pace. That flexibility is a real value. You can treat it like a storytelling night with one drink, or go all-in if that’s your plan. Just remember you still have a 2-hour walk, and your guide is responsible for keeping the group together.
If you’re sensitive to language or you’re traveling with a mixed group, also be aware that some past experiences described guides using heavy profanity or acting impaired. That’s not a guarantee, but it is a risk worth considering when alcohol is involved in the story-driven setting.

What You Pay: Is $30 Worth It?

At $30 per person for about 2 hours, this tour is priced like a guided experience, not a full pub package. The math is simple:
- You’re paying primarily for the guide-led haunted history and the structured route through multiple stops.
- You’re not getting included alcohol or included food.
So the true cost depends on what you plan to order. If you’ll buy one drink at two or three stops, you’re probably spending roughly what you’d spend on a normal Savannah night out—only with added stories and less effort planning your own route.
Where the price feels especially fair is when your guide is strong. Reviews highlighted guides such as Pierce MacIain, Andre, and Kelly for being engaging, patient with groups, and ready to answer history questions beyond the haunted angle. When the guide clicks, the $30 becomes more than a ticket. It becomes a map plus a story engine.
Where it can feel weak is if you wanted nonstop paranormal moments. Some people felt the ghost focus was lighter than expected. Others felt the experience dragged during lecture-heavy stops. In that case, you’re left paying for “a history tour that happens to visit bars.” If that sounds like your jam, great. If not, decide carefully.
Guide Quality Can Make or Break the Night

This tour is only as good as its storytelling. And the feedback is consistent on one big point: when the guide is on form, it’s a fun mix of Savannah knowledge, paranormal talk, and crowd-friendly energy.
Multiple guides got praised by name—especially Pierce MacIain and Andre, and Kelly also appeared in positive feedback. People liked their animated delivery and their ability to weave Savannah’s history and paranormal claims into something you can follow during a night walk.
But there’s a second, more uncomfortable theme: when the guide’s behavior was described as impaired, profanity-heavy, or unprofessional, the whole experience suffered. In some cases, groups reported shortened routes or that they didn’t even enter all the bars.
I can’t promise your guide will match the best-case scenario, but I can tell you how to protect your night:
- Go in expecting a guided story performance, not a scripted theme park.
- If you’re hoping for a very scary, very supernatural tone, mentally budget for the possibility that the history side takes a bigger share of time.
- If you’re the kind of person who gets annoyed when groups are delayed or route flow is off, bring patience. A walking crawl with a group of up to 20 can be chaotic when energy dips.
Practical Tips for a Night That Stays Fun

Here’s how to set yourself up for an easy evening.
Wear comfortable shoes. This is a walking tour with an outdoor route. One review called out how hot it can be in July, but the more general point was the same: you’ll enjoy it more with supportive footwear.
Bring a camera if you want. The tour specifically encourages bringing your camera in hopes of catching orbs or other eerie images. Even if the results are hit-or-miss, it’s a fun activity while you wait for the next storybeat.
Plan on buying drinks. Since alcohol and food aren’t included, decide ahead of time how much you want to spend. A pub crawl can turn into a budget surprise if you don’t set a cap.
Be ready for a small group feel. With a max of 20 travelers and a guided format, you’re not stuck with a huge crowd. That’s good for listening, and it also means your guide has to manage the whole group’s timing.
Who This Haunted Pub Crawl Fits Best
This is a great match if you want:
- A 2-hour night activity that combines Savannah atmosphere with ghost-style storytelling.
- A pub crawl format where you get breaks to buy drinks and use restrooms.
- A guide-led route through historic squares rather than wandering solo with a phone.
It’s especially suitable for groups who enjoy conversation and a little playful creepiness, including bachelorette groups and friends nights. Reviews also highlighted how guides answered questions beyond the haunted stops, so if you like asking about what you’re seeing, you’ll probably get value.
It might be less ideal if you want:
- An all-paranormal experience with minimal history. Some people felt the spook content was light.
- A strictly scary horror tone. This tour is story-driven and history-mixed, not pure jump-scare entertainment.
- A very consistent level of guide performance. There have been reports of bad runs, including guides acting inappropriately.
Should You Book This Haunted Pub Crawl?
Book it if you want a fun Savannah night out that includes multiple bar stops, a cemetery-linked ghost story, and a guide who can talk history and paranormal claims while you walk. The $30 price feels reasonable for the structure and the storytelling, especially if you’ll buy at least a drink or two along the way.
Skip it (or pick a different style of tour) if you only want hard-core haunting content, or if you’re very particular about professional conduct during the tour. Like any nightlife-based experience, the guide’s delivery really matters.
If you do book, go in with comfortable shoes, a clear drink budget, and the mindset that you’re buying a guided night walk plus pub stops—not included beer and an endless stream of scares. That mindset is where this tour tends to shine.
