The Tour
America's Most Haunted City
Founded in 1565, St. Augustine is the oldest continuously occupied European settlement in the United States — and with that age comes layer upon layer of tragedy, conflict, and stories that refuse to stay buried. Spanish colonizers, British soldiers, pirates, and plague survivors all left their mark on these narrow streets.
Whispers of the Old City takes you through St. Augustine's most haunted locations, guided by rich GPS-triggered audio narration that unlocks exactly when you arrive at each stop. Five centuries of ghost stories — told right where they happened.
