Ghosts And Legends Of Old San Juan

OVERVIEW

Walk through Old San Juan with a guide that knows where all the skeletons are buried and will entertain you with chilling and often unnerving ghost stories. The city was founded in 1521 so you can be sure that there are plenty of places that are supposedly haunted. As you stroll the cobblestone streets, following a route of approximately three miles, you will pass nearly a dozen historical landmarks. While viewing El Morro castle, you will hear about its horrid past and chilling paranormal disturbances. Similarly, Fort San Cristobal is known for its Devil’s Sentry Box, where legend has it that soldiers mysteriously disappeared. Even a seemingly innocuous setting like the Tapia Theater has its eerie moments as ghostly spirits are said to walk about the mezzanine level after performances. The guide will describe all the weird happenings in gory detail. Fortunately, this is a daytime tour, not in the dead of night.
