Welcome To Concord Ghosts
Phantoms of bygone wars maintain watch over its grounds, and inexplicable happenings stun the living who now inhabit one of America’s most ghost-ridden cities.
Rumblings of a Traumatic Past
The Revolutionary War forever changed many men in the 18th century, with many never making it out alive. Join Concord Ghosts at a three-hundred-year-old inn, where deceased medics and ghostly minutemen continue to wander.
Travel back in time at Concord’s Colonial Inn, where a makeshift hospital became the last site seen by boundless patients before they were torn from this world. Hear the stories of the ghostly inhabitants who haunt the former morgue and the phantom doctor who failed to save them.
Traces of the past continue to bleed through into the present at this historic inn, echoing throughout its many rooms and halls. More than the spirits of soldiers and nurses linger here, seemingly trapped beyond time. Learn more about these numerous specters on a fright-filled ghost tour with Concord Ghosts.

Why is Concord so Haunted?
Dutiful Spirits Linger Alongside the Living
Not all of Concord’s specters are of the wicked variety. Those within the Old Manse are far too busy in their afterlives to be concerned with the living. Follow Concord Ghosts to an 18th-century minister’s house where the spirits of the reverend’s former slaves carry out their daily activities as if not a day had passed since their deaths.
Hear reports of these tireless ghosts, starting with those told by Nathanial Hawthorne and his wife up to modern-day accounts. Experience the haunting charm of this curious clapboard house and listen to the stories of its various spirits.
Why have so many literary figures been inspired to write such great works within these walls? Might it be the phantom figures within, whispering into their ears? Entertain these questions and many others on a soul-stirring tour with Concord Ghosts.
Concord’s Most Haunted
In a city as old and rich as Concord, you’ll encounter more mystifying destinations than you could ever pack into a single day. While you may pause outside the Old Manse to admire its Georgian features and charming spirits, you may wish to allow yourself more time at some of Concord’s other haunting landmarks, such as the Orchard House.
There’s a quaint sense of magic to be found within Louisa May Alcott’s Orchard House, where the famed author penned her most famous work. Here, Louisa said she felt the spirit of her deceased sister most strongly, inspiring Louisa to write her into Little Women. More recent visitors swear the spirit of Louisa May Alcott herself permeates the house, bringing many to tears with her stirring presence.
While you’re in the area, you may also wish to visit Concord’s largest cemetery, in which Alcott and many more renowned figures lie buried. Inside, an atmosphere of reverence radiates within Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. While those who walk amidst the tombstones may find no headless horseman, they will discover a haunting energy surrounding the graves of Thoreau, Emerson, and Nathaniel Hawthorne.
