Family Ghost Adventure
Original Ghost Stories on EVERY Tour!
7 PM - 1 Hour - 3 Blocks Long - Great for kids ages 6 -12
The Blue Hippo Ghost Adventure is built for families who want a night out that feels exciting, playful, and just the right amount of spooky. Instead of standing around while grown-ups listen to a lecture, kids get to be part of the adventure from the very beginning. The stories are easy to follow, full of mystery, and told in a way that keeps everyone engaged without being too scary for younger children.
One of the biggest reasons families love the Blue Hippo Ghost Adventure is that every child gets to use an actual electronic ghost detection meter. These handheld meters light up as kids explore historic streets, giving them a real “ghost hunter” moment at each stop. Children love watching the lights flash, comparing readings with siblings or friends, and feeling like they have an important job to do during the adventure.
That hands-on experience turns the evening into more than a walk through town. It becomes a shared family memory. Parents get to enjoy Charleston’s haunted history, while kids stay active, curious, and excited. The tour gives children something to hold, watch, and talk about, which makes the stories feel more real and the experience more interactive.
The Blue Hippo Ghost adventure is also a great choice because it brings people of different ages together. Younger kids enjoy the glowing meters and spooky surprises, while older kids appreciate the mystery, history, and chance to investigate. Parents get plenty of photo-worthy moments, especially when a child’s meter lights up, and their face says it all.
For families visiting Charleston, this adventure is a fun, colorful, and memorable way to spend an evening together. It is part ghost story and part hands-on adventure—perfect for kids who want to become ghost hunters for the night.
