Take a Maryland Ghost Tour
Many Chesapeake port towns offer ghost tours. Tickets generally range $10-$15 (often less for children and slightly higher for tours of haunted pubs).
Hauntings aren’t limited to Halloween. Most tours have a long fall season, but some begin in summer and others run year-round. Some require or recommend advance tickets.
