Overview

A headless horseman they called the Reverend Devil. A Frankenstein stitched back to life with electricity. A vampire who won’t rot. A mummy hiding in a church. And more ghosts than any one man can conjure. Nashville had monsters before it had music. Both the real and the human.

Step into the shadows of Music City and meet the monsters this town tried to bury. This is not your average Nashville ghost tour. It is a walk through real murder, true crime, and the restless dead, and every monster you were ever warned about has a flesh and blood Nashville original waiting on the route.
