The fall season is the perfect time to go out on some ghost tours in Central Florida, especially if you’re going on your first one!
From our list of favorites, Carlos and I love the tours in St. Augustine. Mostly because walking around at night in America’s oldest city is quite eerie.
If you’ve been a reader of our blog for a while, you already know that fall is my favorite season. You would also know how much The Vampire Diaries entertain me all year long.

But just as such, ghost tours are my epitome of fun for Halloween!
And believe it or not, we have many mysterious places in Central Florida with fascinating histories..
For starters, if you want something different then check out the mystery of Spook Hill. The mystery of this hill came after an urban legend that supposedly took place here.
On this hill, your car will start to go up the hill on its own. Known also as ‘gravity hill’, Spook Hill has quite an interesting story behind it.
But if you’re like us, the hunt for an exciting and spooky ghost tour begins.

Hey, adventurer! π I’m Yanitza, a hidden-gem hunter and adventure seeker who’s been helping travelers discover authentic experiences off the beaten path for over 8 years. When I’m not crafting detailed travel guides or exploring historic towns, you’ll find me underwater β I’m a PADI-certified scuba diver with a passion for ocean conservation and marine life. A firm believer that the best stories happen when you venture beyond tourist hotspots, I balance my wanderlust with guilty-pleasure binges of The Vampire Diaries and dreaming up future adventures in Mallorca, Spain. Through my guides and travel tips, I hope to inspire others to explore deeper, travel slower, and discover the magic of unexpected places.
Looks pretty cool and pretty creepy at the same time! I would not have thought of this as a date idea, but it might be good for hugging.
I know how odd it can sound as a date idea! lOL. But it was pretty cool!
