Our Tours Aren't Lifeless
We are professional storytellers who bring unscripted history to life...and death. We take you to the very best in haunted and historic spaces on Mount Desert Island and within Downtown Bar Harbor.
All walking tours are about 60-90 minutes and our routes are approximately one mile. Guests will walk at a leisurely pace that winds through the Downtown Bar Harbor area. Bring your camera and wear comfortable walking shoes. Our weather can change on a dime so rainy/misty/windy nights can be between 40-50 degrees and the "real feel" can be as low as the 20s in October. Check your weather app early and often.
NO THEATRE ACCESS FOR 2020!
* Although we strive to have every tour access the inside of the 1932 Criterion Theatre, we cannot always do so. Entry to the theatre is limited due to live shows, extended movie run times, seasonal openings and pandemics. We no not reduce the price of tours if we do not gain entrance to the theatre.
