Creepy Crawl Night-Time Haunted Pub Walking Tour of Savannah’s Historic District
Book on Viator →Operated by Savannah By Foot · Bookable on Viator
Savannah at night has a certain bite, and this tour leans into it. It’s a haunted pub walking experience built around historic drinking spots, plus ghost tales in some of the city’s most famous squares and (briefly) at Colonial Park Cemetery.
I like that the tour mixes two things people actually want: bar time and story time. You start at Six Pence Pub, then you move between classic neighborhood watering holes while your guide ties the locations to Savannah’s darker past.
One thing to consider: the spook level can depend on your guide and the night’s pacing. The route includes cemetery time but largely at the gate, so if you’re expecting nonstop screams-and-shocks, you may be happier with the idea of a history-and-haunting blend.

Entering the haunted circuit: what the 2 hours really feels like

This Creepy Crawl Night-Time Haunted Pub Walking Tour is designed to cover a lot of ground without feeling like a nonstop hike. Expect roughly 2 hours walking at night through Savannah’s Historic District, with short stops that break up the route. The smallish cap of 20 travelers helps keep the group from turning into a moving crowd.
You’ll meet your guide near the start and then head out into the city’s after-dark vibe. Along the way, you get guided tales of hauntings and local spirit activity, and you also hear the historical threads that make Savannah’s ghost stories make sense.

Start at Six Pence Pub: meeting point and the walking rhythm
Your tour kicks off at 245 Bull St, with the group meeting at or near Six Pence Pub. From there, you’ll be moving between bars while the guide keeps the stories flowing. One practical detail I appreciate: you’re not expected to just stand around. You typically get enough time at each stop to purchase a drink and handle basics like restroom breaks.
There’s also a to-go element in the experience. The tour is structured so you’re carrying a drink as you walk between locations, which helps you keep the momentum. Just remember: the tour emphasizes that alcoholic drinks are at your own expense.
Up to 4 Savannah pubs: how the bar stops work

The core of the experience is a pub crawl, so the bar part is real—not a perfunctory photo op. You’ll visit up to 4 local Savannah pubs/bars, and your guide will share what makes each one part of Savannah’s haunted storytelling.
Here’s what that means for you on the street:
- You’ll have time to buy something at each stop, so you can choose your pace
- You can treat this like a guided “where to go next” night, even if you don’t go hard on drinking
- Your guide may offer practical drink recommendations based on what the bars are known for
In a city full of bars, this kind of guided routing saves time. You don’t have to research which locations actually fit the historic vibe, and you don’t have to plan a route on your own after dark.
Colonial Park Cemetery and Button Gwinnett: the spookiest stop on the route

One of the most memorable parts is the Colonial Park Cemetery moment. The tour doesn’t drag you inside deep and dark for a long scene. Instead, you pause at the gate and hear a story tied to a famous resident: Button Gwinnett.
Gwinnett matters here because he wasn’t just a local name—he was a Declaration of Independence signer. The haunting angle lands harder when it’s attached to someone you’ve heard of in school, and that’s exactly how this stop is framed.
If you’re the type who likes to document the night, the tour also encourages you to bring a camera. You might try for orbs or other eerie images as you’re standing in the right places. Just keep your expectations realistic: low light can create all kinds of optical effects, even when nothing supernatural is happening.
Lush squares, nightlife, and stories that connect dots

Savannah’s Historic District is a perfect stage for ghost stories because the city is built around public squares, historic streets, and older building fabric. This tour uses that. As you walk, you’ll hear tales not only tied to bars, but also woven through the city’s night scenery—squares and nightlife lanes included.
A nice bonus is that the storytelling tends to connect the past to what you’re seeing now. That makes it feel less like random legends and more like Savannah’s layers stacked in front of you.

Guides and pacing: why your night may vary

The guide experience is a big deal on this tour. Multiple guides are described as engaging, and names like Pierce (including Pierce MacIain), Andre, and Kelly show up as standouts. When the guide is on form, you get a lively mix of Savannah history plus paranormal talk, and the bar stops feel more personal.
But there’s also a caution flag in the feedback pattern: a small number of experiences complain about issues like a guide being too intoxicated or the tour not finishing the full route. Another set of comments points to an imbalance toward history lectures over the more “creepy” angle suggested by the name.
So here’s my practical take for managing that risk:
- Go in expecting both history and hauntings, not a pure jump-scare show
- If you want maximum creep factor, treat this as a storytelling tour first, and plan to enjoy the bar route even if the paranormal isn’t constant
Price and value: is $30 a smart spend?

At $30 per person for about 2 hours, you’re paying for three things: guided routing, historic storytelling, and built-in bar time where you can choose what to drink. The tour itself includes the crawl and the guided stops, but drinks and food aren’t included, so your final night cost depends on what you order.
From a value standpoint, I think this price makes sense if:
- You want help picking bars without doing a lot of planning
- You like guided history that’s tied to places, not just dates
- You enjoy an adult night out and you’re okay adding your own drinks to the bill
If you’re hoping to avoid any alcohol spending entirely, you can still make the tour work—you’ll still learn and you’ll still get the guided route—but the experience becomes more about stories and atmosphere than about sampling the bars.
What to wear and bring for a comfortable night

This is a walking tour at night, and Savannah can get hot even outside summer. One of the simplest ways to make this better is to plan for your feet and your comfort.
I recommend:
- Comfortable shoes (you’ll be moving between bars)
- A plan for hydration if it’s warm, since your drink choices are on you
- A camera if you like the orb/photo idea
- A small buffer in your schedule so you’re not rushing to dinner after the crawl
Also, this tour is English and uses a mobile ticket. If you rely on paper tickets, double-check your phone battery.
Who should book this haunted pub crawl (and who should skip it)
This tour is a great match if you want:
- A 21+ night with historic Savannah bars
- A guided walk that blends spooky tales with real landmarks
- A small-group vibe (up to 20 travelers)
You might want to skip or choose a different style of ghost tour if:
- You want constant supernatural action and almost no history
- You’re sensitive to pacing that can include longer explanations at stops
- You prefer tours that go fully inside sites rather than pausing outside, like at the cemetery gate
Should you book Creepy Crawl in Savannah?
Yes, I’d book it if you’re the type who likes haunted stories that stay grounded in place. The route is built for an adult night out, and the combo of pub stops plus a Colonial Park Cemetery moment makes it more than just a drinking walk.
Before you go, decide what you want more: maximum creep or balanced spooky history with bar time. If you’re good with a story-led evening and flexible pacing, this is a solid use of two hours in Savannah’s Historic District.
