Williamsburg West Tour
Overview
The only ghost tour in the world based on the first ever photo-study of ghosts! Real ghost photos, featured in the books Haunted Historic Colonial Williamsburg Virginia with Breakthrough Ghost Photography, Parts 1 & 2, are shown at each stop on a large computer notebook (Samsung Galaxy). Guides will point out the exact location around or in the house or building where the photo was taken and encourage travelers to take their own photos. Tour guides will give relevant historical information pertaining to the haunting as well as personal stories encountered by the book's author and others, including interpreters and security guards from Colonial Williamsburg. Travelers will be given choices about where they would like to stop based on their interests--no tour is ever the same! The West Tour starts at the Cheese Shop in Merchants Square and continues to various buildings in Colonial Williamsburg to the last stop--Williamsburg's most haunted: the Peyton Randolph House.

We had so much fun on the Williamsburg West Tour! The pictures helped tell the story of the area. Our guide was so knowledgeable and kept us engaged. I was so shocked when I went to take a picture by the church two images went past me so fast I couldn’t capture them but it FREAKED me out!

This tour is a one of a kind and a must for those who love ghost tours, history tours, etc. Tim was outstanding and is an awesome photographer. Some of his photos are extremely spooky and will give you the chills. He taught us what to look for when taking pictures. I always shoot with a small camera and usually get orbs, but I never thought about taking pictures, seeing a light cloud, and cropping them to see what is in those pictures. We did get faces. It's truly amazing. Tim is knowledgeable about the area and will keep you mesmerized. We will go on the ghostographer tour again and we are planning to buy Tim's book. I would have uploaded my pictures, but what is showing on the camera, won't show on my computer. First, I uploaded the pictures and made duplicates, just in case I cropped incorrectly. Then I went back into my computer and the ghostly pictures were gone. So I uploaded again. Now those same pictures are black. All the other pictures are fine. No, not operator error. It's very bizarre.Mary_Washington_Hous

Excellent ghost tour. Tim shared his amazing ghost photos and stories on an engaging tour. He showed us the sites that he has captured some of his images and gave us plenty of time to take as many photos as we wanted.
