Bonaventure Cemetery Gatekeeper Secrets (Special Fri Nights October Only)
Savannah's only after-hours cemetery tour, 15 years in the running, celebrates October with special Friday nights! Leave the city noise and swelling tour crowds behind for the hushed lands of the dead and exclusive access to the South's most famous cemetery after the gates lock up! You'll wander twilight and nightfall across this 18th century riverside plantation made Victorian Age necropolis among moss draped century live oaks, shadowy cemetery paths and deep dive into root doctor rituals, spirits, secret societies, bootleggers, criss-crossed lovers, serial killers, sacred geometry, mysterious vaults, and all under the guidance of the most tenured storyists Savannah has ever known like Shannon Scott, Megan Morgan and Paschal Miller! Patrons receive a commemorative poster art signed by the founder and artist, Shannon Scott. Remember, 50 ghost tour companies, but there's only 1 after-hours cemetery tour!
