My mother and I went on the tour tonight. Hank was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in history or the paranormal! Will be going again with friends and relatives from out of state.

We met our guide, Meaghan, outside of the Old Cambridge Burial Ground. As we were early, we had the opportunity to chat with Meaghan before some other guests arrived. Her enthusiasm for history and sharing that with others was immediately apparent. During the tour, her abilities as a captivating storyteller were also revealed.

Meaghan was approachable and encouraged questions. She answered any questions as thoroughly as possible and suggested where one might find further information. The storytelling was engaging and thorough. She did an exceptional job of keeping the group together, providing directions to the next destination. Many tour guides do not tell the group where they are headed next and after having a guide that did, I found it a helpful courtesy.

The mix of old and new stories was refreshing. I will look forward to participating in other tours offered.

It was a great tour - the best my wife and I have seen in Greater Boston. Rob did a fantastic job. Look forward to seeing you guys grow.

Just took a Haunted tour with Hank. I really enjoyed the experience and Hank was a phenomenal tour guide (ask for him if you can!) Just the right blend of humor and terror made for an enjoyably spooky evening! After living in the area for 3 years I never realized how much history there was that I didn't know.

My best friend and I just went on this ghost tour with JP. It was a Tuesday night, so there wasn't anyone else there and it was an unintentional private tour! It was a full 90 minute tour, but the time went by really fast. It wasn't until the end of the tour that I had any idea that these guys have only been doing this tour for about a week now. To me, it seemed like JP had been doing it for a few years, based on his extensive knowledge on nearly every building we passed by. Cambridge is such a great city, filled with so much history. Why read a book on it when you can take an awesome ghost tour and learn just as much? Go on a Tuesday or Saturday to hang out with JP for an hour and half. (Tuesdays, if you want a smaller/maybe-even-private tour!)
  
Rebecca B. says: Thank u SO much! Justin and I had a great time. Ashley did a great job! We both grew up here and learned so many new things about Cambridge that we had no idea even existed. Such a great history lesson as well as paranormal.

I recently took this tour on a Wednesday night, my tour-guide was Rob. It was totally out of the box for me but a few friends of mine had heard of the new tour and decided to take part and in the end, were so happy we did. It was a beautiful night and we followed Rob around for an hour and a half as he brought us to some of Harvard Square's notorious historical haunts. The tour was both history and mystery and Rob did a great job explaining each of the famous and infamous stops. It was as if he was personally familiar with each of the entities said to haunt those stops he took us to and detailed their stories beneath the sinister red glow of his hand held lantern. Good atmospherics!

Not only is this tour a fun way to spend the fall as it approaches the Cambridge/Boston area, but it's also a beautiful way to see the Square's historical properties.  Good job Rob! Will definitely be back for this tour when the leaves and air start to change...
Has Holbrook Smith's ghost returned to Harvard?

  1. My group attended this tour on a whim.

    It was so fun AND informative! Our guide, Ashley (who happens to be so adorable that if he comes back as a ghost, I hope he's an insatiable poltergeist in my room) obviously knows his stuff, and gets the group excited. It was great to gather history of Cambridge, and spooky stories that will haunt you after the tour is done. We managed to snag a few photos with orbs and it made even the most skeptical in our crew really think about what they should believe.

    Two thumbs up for this tour!

  4. Me and my two daughters (27 & 13) had a Living Social deal with Cambridge Haunts. We went the evening of July 27th, Megan was our guide. She was fabulous, the information was so interesting and her story telling made you just want to stay all night and hear her spooky stories. It was about 90 minutes or so and we felt "in the know" about Harvard and the area in regards to those who live there now ......in more than one way!! Thanks Meg!! Maureen Sam and Lydia
