About this tour
After dark, Charlotte’s historic streets take on a different character. On this Charlotte Haunted and True Crime Bus Tour, hear ghost legends and true crime stories tied to the Queen City as you travel through neighborhoods and past sites known for eerie tales.
The 90-minute guided ride covers more ground than a walking tour, with stories from the Fourth Ward and other areas, including old hotels, theaters, and graveyards.

The tour combines local history, chilling accounts, and convenient transportation around the city.
Meet at the front of the Market at 7th Street, where discounted parking is available. Guests can also use ticket-linked offers at Rí Rá Irish Pub and Restaurant and It's Poppin! Gourmet Kettle Korn.

How the score works and rating distribution in Charlotte
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.2. Top 42% in Charlotte means it ranks in the top 42% of tours in Charlotte by this score.
