Charleston Historic District
Ghost City Tours operates ghost walking tours in dozens of U.S. cities, with a Charleston program the company's own site advertises as running since 2012. In Charleston the company runs three separately ticketed products rather than a single tour: the family-friendly Ghosts of Liberty Tour, open to all ages; the adults-only Death and Depravity Ghost Tour, restricted to guests 16 and older; and the 21-and-up Charleston Haunted Pub Crawl.
The Death and Depravity Ghost Tour and the Ghosts of Liberty Tour share a meeting point at the intersection of Vendue Range and Concord Streets, identified on the operator's booking pages by a large fountain where guides meet guests. The Charleston Haunted Pub Crawl instead meets at the Griffin, a tavern at 18 Vendue Range, a short walk from the other tours' meeting point.
Each tour walks a route of roughly one mile through downtown Charleston, stopping outside named buildings while a guide narrates researched history alongside the operator's own paranormal material; the tours do not provide access to building interiors beyond what each property separately offers the public.

Each Charleston tour is built around a different cluster of the operator's stated material. The Death and Depravity Ghost Tour opens at the Dock Street Theatre and continues to the Circular Congregational Church and Graveyard, the Old Exchange Building and Provost Dungeon, and the Powder Magazine, framed by the operator around Charleston's crime and scandal history rather than its daytime historical narrative. The Ghosts of Liberty Tour opens at the Powder Magazine and continues to the Old Exchange Building and Provost Dungeon, Waterfront Park, and the Circular Congregational Church and Graveyard, framed around the Revolutionary and Civil Wars.
The Charleston Haunted Pub Crawl opens at the Blind Tiger Pub and continues to the Griffin, Poogan's Porch, and Tommy Condon's Irish Pub, framed by the operator as a social crawl through haunted taverns rather than a straight history walk.
All of this is the tour operator's own marketing and narrative material, not documented history verified independently for this listing; it is included here as a description of what the tours cover, not as an endorsement of any specific claim.
