Celebrate Spooky Season

Share This Email

Sweet Ghosties,

Spooky season is upon us! We know you want to make the most if it, so allow us to fill your calendar with dark delights and autumnal awesomeness!

There are three ways to see the PGT in action: one by land and two by sea! We are of course referring to the walking tour, as well as our partnerships with Providence River Boat Company and La Gondola Providence! Yep, three separate tours, with almost exclusively separate hauntings to share. Want to win the Triple Crown? Take all three!

We've also included some great events happening locally. Some are free, some cost money, and some can be done from the comfort of your home! Take a look and celebrate the season in the way that suits you best.

Happy Hauntings!

You've been on the walking tour, but have you floated with us? This collaboration between Providence River Boat Company and PGT means a leisurely float down the river as we tell you tales of the Downcity spirits!

Pro tip: Bring a delicious beverage with you and, if it's a chilly night, a blanket to get cozy! Wanna kick it up a notch? It's BYOB!

Haunted Boat Ride

Viaggio di Fantasme

Gondolas and ghosts pair quite nicely, don't you think? Every week through Halloween, we join our friends at La Gondola Providence. They enchant us with songs under the bridges as our guides weave tales of Providence's paranormal presences!

This tour offers the most opportunity for social distancing! One group per gondola.

Submit a Spooky Story

Once upon a time, we gathered at the Graduate Providence hotel and hosted "Ghost Story Open Mic Night."

Local folks joined us for apple cider donuts, kettle corn, and adult beverages and told their tales. This year, we aren't quite ready to return to indoor, in person activities, but why shouldn't we share stories?

Record yourself telling a spooky tale, either an experience you've personally had or a tale you've crafted. Tag us on social media and we'll check it out!

Too shy to record yourself? Send is your story and one of the Ghost Guides will read it for you and we will post of our social media channels!

We will review all submissions and award prizes to the top three!
