Your experience
Stop 1
Once the grand gateway to the South, the Union Station Hotel opened in 1900 as Nashville’s most elegant train terminal — a place where soldiers kissed their sweethearts goodbye, gangsters slipped through under assumed names, and travelers from every walk of life passed through under the cathedral-like arches. But behind its beauty lies heartbreak and horror that never left.
Stop 2
Once a place for locals to test out their talents before making it on to the stages of Broadway, now is haunted by murder and a crazed man who blew up the block because he believed he was possessed by lizard people.
Stop 3
Hear the tragic of story of David "Skull" Schulman the former self-proclaimed "Mayor of Printer's Alley'
Stop 4
Printer's Alley, located in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, has a fascinating and eerie haunted history that adds an extra layer of intrigue to its reputation as a historic entertainment district. This narrow, atmospheric alley has been a hub for nightlife, music, and various businesses since the mid-19th century. The Alley's Name: Printer's Alley got its name from the many print shops that were once located in the area. The ghost of a printer who reportedly died under mysterious circumstances is said to haunt the alley. Witnesses claim to have seen him/her wandering the narrow lanes, sometimes in period clothing.
Stop 5
High atop the hill stands the Tennessee State Capitol, designed in the 1840s by architect William Strickland—who was so proud of his work, he chose to be buried inside it. Beneath its elegant façade lies a darker past: Civil War tunnels once used to move bodies, whispers of footsteps after midnight, and stories of Strickland’s ghost still inspecting his masterpiece.
Stop 6
Established in 1822, the Nashville City Cemetery is the city’s oldest and most storied resting place — and it’s anything but quiet. Over 22,000 souls lie beneath its rolling hills, including governors, slaves, soldiers, and sinners. During the Civil War, both Union and Confederate dead were laid side by side, their blood-soaked ghosts said to still roam among the tombstones.
