The Haunted Honesdale Ghost Walk is an approximately 90 minute, approximately 1.5 miles, walking history tour that travels through historic downtown Honesdale. The tour focuses on the history of Honesdale and Wayne County. We will discuss the facts, myths, legends and stories from the past. The tours are all outdoors due to the fact that many of the buildings are privately owned.
Charles Francis and Mrs. GG are master performers and entertainers. Their unique blend of storytelling and performance have been honed for over 30 years and will delight and enchant you.

A ghost tour is a walking tour that travels the streets stopping along at buildings that have interesting history or are thought to be haunted. We present you with the facts and folklore attached to each location, and you can draw your own conclusions. We do not enter any of the buildings, as many of them are privately owned and/or operating businesses and closed after hours. The tours are not a ghost hunt or ghost investigation, We don’t sit in the dark waiting for a spirit to appear, nor is anyone going to jump out and scare you. This isn’t a haunted house.
Our tour follows main roads and is an hour and a half. Comfortable walking shoes are very important, and weather-appropriate attire is recommended. You might think about dressing in layers. We would also encourage you to bring some water to stay hydrated.
The material discussed during the tour deals with murders, suicides and unusual deaths. This might be too frightening for some children, so please gauge your child’s tolerance of such subjects and plan accordingly.
Yes, dogs are allowed. The ghost tour is actually a great, pet-friendly thing to do. We do have one condition, and that is that you are responsible for your dog and should they cause a problem or if a guest has a problem with them, we will ask you to remove the dog from the tour.
