Annapolis Historic District · Maryland Inn (1772) · Middleton Tavern (1750)
US Ghost Adventures, the multi-city ghost-tour network, operates two standardized Annapolis products under the local consumer brand 'Annapolis Ghost Tours.' The Ashes and Apparitions of Annapolis Ghost Tour is a daily, all-ages walking tour meeting near 22 Market Space at City Dock, covering the Maryland Inn (built 1772, marketed as America's oldest continually operating hotel), Middleton Tavern (in continuous operation since 1750), the James Brice House, the Maryland State House, and the Shiplap House, a 1715 building.
The Annapolis Boos and Booze Haunted Pub Crawl is a separate 21-and-up product covering the same historic district's bars and taverns. Independent corroboration includes GetYourGuide's 'Ashes and Apparitions of Annapolis Ghost Tour' listing and a TripAdvisor listing under the title 'Crabtown Ghosts By US Ghost Adventures,' both showing an active booking flow and visitor reviews for the operator's Annapolis program.

According to US Ghost Adventures, the Shiplap House is haunted by 'Adrienne,' a server the operator says was murdered after rejecting a suitor, reportedly seen in the garden and bedrooms of the building. At the Maryland Inn, the operator repeats the 'Bride' legend independently documented in HauntBound's own Maryland Inn entry: a woman said to have died by suicide after watching her fiance's fatal accident on their wedding day. At Middleton Tavern, the operator's narration centers on 'Roland,' a figure it describes as a colonial-era regular, consistent with the haunting lore independently documented in HauntBound's own Middleton Tavern entry.
The operator also frames the Maryland State House as a site of reported phantom footsteps in the rotunda, consistent with HauntBound's own James Brice House and State House entries, which independently corroborate Annapolis Ghost Tours and US Ghost Adventures as sources for this material via a 2023 Baltimore Sun feature. All of this is the tour operator's own marketing and narrative material, describing what the tour covers rather than an independently verified account of any location's history.
