Ed Macy is a professor, historical journalist and tour guide in Charleston, SC. He is also the author of the best-selling book “Haunted Charleston.” Macy wrote the very first walking ghost tour in Charleston, SC. His research and stories have been featured on numerous national television shows including CNN, BBC, The Discovery Channel Europe, The History Channel, HGTV, and the Travel Channel. His speaking expertise is varied—the American Revolution, the Gullah culture, Pirate history, and any other subject relating to the Lowcountry, especially the macabre.

Based on Ed Macy’s best-selling book, Haunted Charleston, this walking tour takes to the historic streets of Charleston, where true life is stranger than fiction.

Macy leaves embellishment by the wayside to let these stories—in ghastly and sometimes dreadful detail—tell themselves. Combing through the oft-forgotten enclaves of the Holy City, Macy tells of a group of orphans who haunt a College of Charleston dorm, a Citadel cadet who haunts a local hotel and a 200 year old graveyard, to name just a few. Based on historic events and specific details that are often lost in most ghost stories, this collection of haunting tales sparks curiosity about what figure might still be lurking in the alleyways of Charleston’s storied streets.
