Old Town San Diego State Historic Park vicinity
Ghosts & Gravestones is presented by Historic Tours of America, the same company behind Old Town Trolley Tours and related branded attractions in multiple U.S. cities. In San Diego, the brand runs the Ghosts & Gravestones Tour San Diego, a 95-minute experience departing from the Old Town Market at 4008 Twiggs Street that combines trolley transport with walking segments through Old Town San Diego, including a pass through El Campo Santo Cemetery and by the exterior of the Whaley House. The operator separately sells two Whaley House-specific products: a shorter Haunted Evening Tour of the house's interior, and a longer After Hours Paranormal Investigation using ghost-hunting equipment.
Old Town Trolley Tours of San Diego, a related but distinct general sightseeing product from the same parent company, also offers a combined day-and-night package.

The operator's own marketing describes El Campo Santo Cemetery and Pioneer Park as sites that 'change to the darker side when the sun goes down,' with reported paranormal occurrences tied to the cemetery grounds. The Whaley House is promoted using the Travel Channel's 'Most Haunted Places in America' framing, with the operator's Haunted Evening Tour and After Hours Paranormal Investigation both centered on reported activity inside the house.
All of this is the tour operator's own marketing and narrative material, describing what each tour covers rather than an independently verified account of any location's history.
