This night-time ghost tour will take you on a two-hour walk with your expert guide to discover the darker side of New York City, filled with legends and spooky myths about some of Manhattan's historic sites.

You'll visit Washington Square Park, which between the 18th and 19th centuries was a cemetery and mass grave where victims of the yellow fever epidemic were buried, sparking tales of the underworld.

The ghostly journey will pass through places that are presumed to be haunted, such as the following:

You can also explore the Cherry Lane Theater, a renowned Off-Broadway theatre that you'll love to see.

At the park, a local guide will enlighten you on the most famous stories of spirits and ghosts that locals say haunt the place at night.

Whether you're a believer or a sceptic, you're sure to have a fun, interesting and different time when you join this tour of the spookiest spots in Manhattan's Greenwich Village.

    Great to do something different, you get out of any known routine with this tour. Then it is difficult to see each place with the same eyes.
