These tours are guaranteed to entertain, educate, and perhaps disturb your sense of solace and calm. If you love history mixed with mystery, you’ll enjoy all of these walking tours on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. There are nine night-time walks – from St. Michaels to Denton to Berlin and Ocean City to the Great Pocomoke Forest. The walking tours are scattered over 100 linear miles on the Delmarva Peninsula and offer guests a 1.5 to 2-hour storytelling session about the history and mysteries of each of these small, historic towns. All stories are based on historical research, and many of the 130 sites on these tours still have paranormal activity today.

If you love history mixed with mystery, you’ll enjoy all of these walking tours all on Maryland’s Eastern Shore.

Consider the “haunted trifecta” in Ocean City, or a nighttime walk through a cypress forest with a 200-year legacy of being haunted (Pocomoke). Feel the energy of Muskrat Mary in St. Michaels – and maybe catch a glimpse of her, or enjoy your haunted walk on High Street in Cambridge (the setting of James Michener’s Chesapeake) – known to be the most haunted street in Maryland. These are just three of the nine tours. For a fuller description of each town’s tour, review the list and links below. Book your tour now.

Jail staff and townspeople know him well.
Surrounding the area is the notorious Courthouse Green, where shadows of the past remain from two historic lynchings. You’ll hear tales of a spectral physician from the house of Dr. Knott and the cold presence haunting an old bank building. Discover why Denton is truly the Mid-Shore’s capital of the macabre.
