Description

Step into the shadows of New York City’s most storied neighborhood on the Ghosts of Greenwich Village tour. As twilight descends over cobblestone streets and gas-lit alleys, follow your guide through the dark heart of this iconic district—where artists, revolutionaries, and restless spirits still linger. Uncover the haunted past of Washington Square Park, once a potter’s field and site of public executions. Stand in the eerie silence beneath the twisted elm known as the “Hangman’s Tree.” Hear tales of ghostly apparitions at the historic Mark Twain House, phantom piano music drifting from shuttered jazz clubs, and the tragic love stories that echo through hidden courtyards. Perfect for believers and skeptics alike, this chilling walking tour blends history, folklore, and spine-tingling storytelling. Whether you're a local or a curious traveler, you’ll never see Greenwich Village the same way again.
