Boston Haunted History Self-Guided Walking Audio Tour
Overview
Traverse Boston’s oldest neighborhoods and hear about the lost souls still trapped within—from the poor, perpetually burning victims of a gas explosion in Boylston Station to a spectral woman in the Boston Common who tries to convince children to follow her into the dark. Walk through uneasy graveyards where the bodies have been moved, dug up, or lost altogether, and learn the stories of their unquiet dead.
