Welcome to Atlanta Ghosts

Fear the Footsteps of the Forsaken in Atlanta

 

Did you know Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson Airport (ATL) is a 2-hour flight from a major chunk of America’s population? It’s the busiest airport on the entire planet, bringing steady streams of travelers–more than 100 million per year–from all over the world through Atlanta.

The real secret is the almost undetected supernatural flow of otherworldly travelers visiting the land of the living in Atlanta. Lingering in the darkest corners of the city, easily hidden from clubgoers and celebrities in this “Hollywood of the South”, is an unseen host of ghostly citizens whose souls will never leave the confines of the city again.

 

What will I see on this tour?

 

Secrets Serial Killer Stashes and Ghosts of Atlanta’s Underworld

 

From victims of the early railroad construction to the soul-crushing death toll at the center of the Civil Rights movement, Atlanta has always been known as a city with a haunting and tragic history. Echoes of old and new violence reverberate in the shadows of Atlanta’s forest of dogwood trees, where the spirits of train robbers and race rioters roam the night, looking for unwary victims to scare.

Uncover the bone-chilling secrets of Atlanta’s past as you explore buildings once home to cutthroat murderers bent on violence and lawbreaking. Tour the darker side of Atlanta with us on our ghost adventure tour and hear stories that will raise the hair on the back of your neck and give you nightmares as a souvenir.

Ghosts of violence and murder still linger in The ATL, where billions of people have visited for layovers, business meetings, shopping outings, and more. In the shadows of skyscrapers and dogwood trees, The Big Peach holds secrets, some literally buried in the city’s buildings. Serial killers stashed their bodies in Atlanta. Disease and war took young lives tragically. Disembodied voices still communicate with patrons in Atlanta’s bars and ghosts still stalk the halls of buildings that were once Civil War hospitals.

As you explore midtown ATL, you’ll discover the story of a serial killer who hid the bodies of his victims in a church basement. Listen for the haunting tune of the long-dead Fox Theater organist as you walk through quiet and seemingly deserted streets. 

Watch for the ghosts of Atlanta past lingering in the darkened alleys that you pass. Visit Babs Midtown where a violent, haunted house used to sit and don’t be surprised if you feel a chill when you visit the still-haunted location.

 

Why is Atlanta So Haunted?

 

A-Town Built On Ashes of the Dead

 

Atlanta grew into a bustling regional center in the 1850s because of the railroad, which made it a hub for commerce, trade, and travel. But the city that rose from the ACF River Basin burned to the ground several times including the Great Atlanta Fire of 1917, when more than 1,900 buildings burned, trapping residents inside. The modern, sleek buildings you pass as you walk through midtown Atlanta are built on the ashes of tragedy. Whispers of the fires that trapped so many souls in burning buildings still echo in the streets. Don’t be surprised if you feel something rush by as you explore midtown Atlanta, it could just be a panicked victim still searching for an escape from the flames.

In 1946, a fire broke out at the Winecoff Hotel, now known as the Ellis Hotel. An impressive building, the 15-story Winecoff was hailed as a “fireproof building” when it was built. It didn’t have any sprinklers or fire exits, so guests couldn’t escape when flames broke out that fateful night. Of the 280 guests that were at the hotel, 119 died in the fire, which still is the most deadly hotel fire in U.S. history. The tortured souls of those guests still search the halls of the hotel for relief from the tragedy. 

Don’t be alarmed if you hear whispers from the shadows as you walk through Atlanta’s midtown, it’s just another traveler begging for relief from an untimely death. The chill you feel in your spine could be from the touch of a burn victim, still caught in the flames of the past.

 

Why do ghosts still haunt homes in Atlanta?

 

Don’t be surprised if you notice ghostly apparitions watching you from the windows of houses and establishments you pass when you walk the streets of Atlanta. Don’t get spooked if you feel a cold spot walking into a bar that was once a home, or see your frosted mug move on its own accord. Even if you can’t see anyone in your room with you as you settle in for the night, chances are you aren’t alone. In Atlanta, the past doesn’t disappear that easily.

Atlanta grew into the city it is today because of the railroad, bringing hundreds of families to the area for work and better prospects. Many of the people who invested their lives into building homes in Atlanta refused to leave their beloved homes when they died. Slaves were also brutalized, murdered, and killed in tragic accidents at homes in Atlanta. Many of them haven’t moved on, either. Instead, ghosts of the past linger in their houses, watching you walk through their streets from just behind the curtains of their picture windows.

Journey through streets charred with tragedy and hear nightmarish stories of Atlanta’s violent past on our ghost adventure tour. Walk in the footsteps of lives cut short and feel the lingering aura of spirits who just can’t leave their tragic endings behind. Instead of just reading about the ghosts of Atlanta, join us on a tour you won’t forget.
