Creepy Crawl Night-Time Haunted Pub Walking Tour of Savannah’s Historic District

Savannah’s Creepy Crawl mixes ghost stories with a proper night out, taking you from Six Pence Pub through the Historic District’s squares, old streets, and up to four local bars. The strongest guides, including Pierce, Andre, and Kelly, bring plenty of Savannah history, local drink advice, and a good dose of theater to the walk.

I like the flexible drink setup: you can buy a beer or cocktail when you want one, or skip alcohol and focus on the stories. I also like the stop outside Colonial Park Cemetery, where the guide discusses Button Gwinnett and other eerie tales tied to Savannah’s oldest burial ground.

The main caution is expectation-setting. This can feel more like a historic pub walk with ghost stories than a nonstop haunted tour, and a few reports describe guides who talked too long or appeared unfit to lead.

Key things to know before you go

• Four local bar stops: You can buy drinks and use restrooms along the route, with alcohol always paid for separately.
• Colonial Park Cemetery: The tour pauses outside the gate rather than taking you through the cemetery.
• Strong guide personalities: Pierce, Andre, and Kelly receive special praise for storytelling, local advice, and drink recommendations.
• History takes center stage: Expect Savannah lore, old buildings, city squares, and local stories alongside paranormal material.
• Two hours on foot: Comfortable shoes matter, especially during hot weather.
• Small enough to feel social: The group limit is 20 people, though the exact size on your night can vary.

What this haunted pub walk is really like

I would think of this experience as two tours joined together: a Savannah history walk and a bar crawl with ghost stories. The pub stops give the evening a relaxed rhythm, while the spooky tales provide a reason to look more closely at the old streets and buildings after dark.

That blend works well for a first night in Savannah. You get an introduction to several local bars, learn the names behind some of the city’s old stories, and finish with a better sense of where you might want to return later.

The tour costs $30 per person and lasts about two hours. That is fair if you value a guide, a planned route, and access to several bars without having to choose them yourself. It is less compelling if you only want dramatic paranormal accounts, since the amount of ghost material depends heavily on the guide.

Meeting at Six Pence Pub on Bull Street

The evening begins at Six Pence Pub, at 245 Bull Street. This gives you an easy starting point in the Historic District, close to Savannah’s famous squares and several nightlife spots.

Your guide gathers the group, explains the plan, and begins the walk toward the first haunted locations and bars. The exact sequence can vary, but the format remains consistent: walk through the district, pause for a story, enter or stop near a pub, and allow time for drinks and restrooms.

I recommend arriving ready to walk rather than treating this as a seated pub event. The bars are part of the route, not the whole experience. You will spend time outdoors among the squares and streets, so comfortable shoes are more useful than dressed-up footwear.

The group can include as many as 20 people. That is small enough for a guide to keep the group together, but a large group can make storytelling harder to hear, particularly on a noisy street or outside a busy bar.

The pubs: local stops with drinks on your own

The tour visits up to four Savannah pubs and bars. Drinks are not included in the $30 price, which is important when you work out the evening’s real cost.

I see this as a good arrangement for mixed groups. You can order a full drink, choose something simple, or skip alcohol. You are not forced to pay for a package drink or follow a fixed menu.

The stops also give you practical breaks. You have time to purchase drinks and use the restroom rather than rushing from one story point to the next. Several guides, especially Pierce and Andre, are praised for offering drink suggestions and helping people decide what to order.

The bars are described as quirky, historic, and local in character. The tour information does not promise a particular set of four venues, so you should expect the stops to change. That can be useful if you return to Savannah at another time, but it also means you should not book the tour solely because you have seen a specific bar named elsewhere.

A small but useful detail: the tour allows you to carry a drink as you walk. You should still follow each venue’s rules and local regulations, but the format is built around combining a walking drink with the nighttime route.

Savannah’s squares and haunted streets

Between pub stops, the guide takes you through Savannah’s lush city squares and other spooky sites. The value here is not just the ghost material. The walk lets you see how Savannah’s old public spaces, streets, homes, and burial grounds fit together.

At night, the city has a different mood. Street lighting, quiet corners, and old façades make even a familiar square feel more mysterious. I like this part of the route because you are not confined to one bar or one story setting.

The guides who receive the strongest praise bring a mix of fact and performance. Pierce is noted for Savannah background, local recommendations, and paranormal stories. Andre is described as entertaining and patient, while Kelly is praised for an interactive storytelling style.

That said, the quality depends on who leads your group. Some experiences can lean too far toward jokes, personal stories, or long history lectures. If your guide spends more time on city facts than ghost accounts, the tour may feel closer to a pub-oriented history walk.

Colonial Park Cemetery and Button Gwinnett

One of the clearest landmarks on the route is Colonial Park Cemetery. The tour pauses outside the gate, where the guide tells stories connected with the cemetery and Savannah’s past.

Button Gwinnett is one of the featured figures. He signed the Declaration of Independence and is among the cemetery’s most famous residents. His inclusion gives the guide a chance to connect national history with a specific Savannah place.

Bring a camera if you enjoy trying to capture orbs or other eerie images. The tour does not promise paranormal proof, and you should treat this as a playful part of the night rather than a guaranteed sighting.

The cemetery stop also shows the limits of the experience. You hear about the burial ground from outside the gate, so this is not a cemetery exploration or a long look at individual graves. If your main goal is to walk through historic burial grounds after dark, you may want to compare this tour with one focused more closely on cemeteries.

Some guests have also found the route repetitive, including a concern about appearing near Colonial Park Cemetery more than once. That may be a route issue on a particular night, but it is worth knowing that the walking pattern may not feel perfectly direct.

How much ghost content should you expect?

The name sets a strong expectation, so this is the most important point to consider. You will hear ghost stories and accounts of spirit activity, but the tour also spends a good deal of time on Savannah’s general past, local bars, and the people connected with the city.

Some guides deliver memorable paranormal tales and make the history feel eerie. Others may give you only a few clearly supernatural stories, with the rest of the evening devoted to background information and pub advice.

I would book this if you like a social night out with a spooky theme. I would hesitate if you want a tightly scripted ghost tour with one frightening account after another.

The best way to approach it is to enjoy the uncertainty. Savannah’s old streets and squares provide the setting, but the guide’s storytelling style determines how creepy the night feels. A strong guide can make a historical fact unsettling. A weaker one can make a haunted stop feel like a standard sightseeing lecture.

Guide quality matters more than usual

Several guides receive especially warm praise. Pierce is repeatedly described as funny, friendly, and well informed about both Savannah’s past and current food and nightlife options. He also seems to be useful for trip planning, with advice on places to eat and sights to visit the following day.

Andre is praised for energy, patience, and a good balance of history and paranormal material. That matters in a walking tour, since a guide who can hold attention outdoors makes the route feel shorter.

Kelly is noted for being fun and interactive. That style may appeal to groups who want to participate rather than listen to a formal lecture.

There is also a serious caution. A few accounts describe guides who appeared intoxicated, used excessive profanity, rambled, skipped a bar, or ended the experience early. These reports are not a minor style complaint. A guide who cannot lead safely or clearly can ruin the evening.

Because the experience provider is Savannah By Foot, your booking is with the same operator, but the guide on a particular departure can make a major difference. I would keep expectations flexible, and I would speak up politely if the group cannot hear or follow the route.

Walking, weather, and practical comfort

The tour lasts about two hours and takes place outdoors after dark. You should wear comfortable shoes and prepare for warm weather, especially in summer. One July account describes a very hot night, but still found the route manageable with good stops and footwear.

You will have chances to buy drinks and use restrooms at the pubs. Food is not included, and neither are alcoholic or nonalcoholic drinks. Plan for the $30 tour price plus whatever you choose to spend at the bars.

The tour is offered in English and uses a mobile ticket. The minimum age is 21, so everyone in your group must meet that requirement. Service animals are allowed, and the activity is listed as suitable for most people.

The route begins at Six Pence Pub and is listed as ending at Wright Square. The final directions describe another nearby bar or historic square about a five-minute walk from the starting area, so I would confirm the exact end point with your guide if you need to arrange a ride. The guide can help with directions or transportation arrangements.

The experience requires good weather and a minimum number of participants. If poor weather cancels it, you can receive another date or a full refund. If the minimum number is not reached, you are offered another option or a refund.

Is $30 a good value?

At $30, the price is reasonable for a two-hour guided walk with several pub stops. You are paying for the route, the storytelling, and the convenience of moving between places without planning the evening yourself.

The value improves if you want local bar suggestions. A guide such as Pierce or Andre may help you decide where to return later, and you can connect the tour’s stories with the rest of your Savannah visit.

The value drops if you expect drinks, food, cemetery admission, or a highly focused paranormal investigation. None of those is included. You buy your own drinks, and the cemetery portion takes place outside the gate.

I would also budget for the possibility of a slower pace. Some guides may talk at length at each stop, which can make two hours feel long if you are mainly waiting for the next bar. Groups that enjoy conversation, drinks, and history will likely find that pace comfortable.

Who should book this Savannah night tour?

I think it suits adults who want a light, social introduction to Savannah at night. It is a good fit for friends, couples, birthday groups, and anyone who enjoys hearing local stories while trying different bars.

It also works well early in a trip. You can gather restaurant ideas, learn the layout of the Historic District, and get suggestions for the next day. The pub stops create a natural way to talk with the guide and other people in the group.

I would be cautious if you are traveling with anyone under 21, dislike walking, or want a quiet tour with no alcohol focus. I would also choose a more dedicated ghost tour if your priority is a large number of chilling tales, cemetery access, or a serious paranormal theme.

Cancellation and booking details

You receive confirmation when you book, and the experience is usually reserved about 14 days ahead. You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time.

Cancellations or changes made within 24 hours are not refunded. Cutoff times use Savannah’s local time, so check the time carefully if you are booking from another time zone.

Should you book the Creepy Crawl?

Book it if you want a two-hour Savannah evening that combines local bars, city history, spooky places, and the chance to buy drinks as you go. The strongest guides, including Pierce, Andre, and Kelly, can make the night funny, informative, and genuinely eerie.

Skip it if you want a pure ghost tour or if you dislike the risk of a guide whose style does not match your expectations. For the best result, wear good shoes, arrive ready for an outdoor walk, budget for your own drinks, and treat the paranormal side as part of a broader Savannah night rather than the entire show.
