Uptown Charlotte's Fourth Ward Historic District · Old Settlers' Cemetery (1776-1884) · Civil War and Prohibition-era Charlotte
Queen City Ghosts runs a nightly walking tour through Uptown Charlotte's historic core, covering roughly a mile of ground between the Fourth Ward and central Uptown. The tour is built around documented Charlotte history — the Civil War and Prohibition eras in particular — paired with reported hauntings at a route of historic buildings, a Victorian-era pub, a former firehouse, and a colonial-era cemetery. The operator is listed and bookable through multiple third-party platforms (GetYourGuide, Viator, and others) alongside its own site, and appears in local ghost-tour roundups distinct from the city's other operators (US Ghost Adventures Charlotte and Charlotte NC Tours, both separately covering some of the same landmarks).

The Dunhill Hotel is presented as a site where blinds reportedly move on their own and guests have described a figure tugging at their ankles overnight, tied by the operator to an unidentified man once found in the building. Old Settlers' Cemetery draws on the burial ground's founder-era graves. The Carolina Theatre's resident ghost is referred to by the operator as Fred. McNinch House is presented as haunted by the last remaining member of the McNinch family, reportedly seen in a second-floor window. Rí Rá Irish Pub's operator material describes shifting glassware and a girl in a blue dress near the hostess stand. First Presbyterian Church, the Bootlegger House, Old Fire Station No. 4, and Alexander Michael's round out the route with additional local ghost lore tied to each building's documented history.
