Overview

Explore Philly's sinful past - scandals, fatal romances, serial killers, buried secrets, & haunted buildings where the dead don't rest easy.

Philadelphia is a city full of secrets. Full of mysteries. Full of depravity. Some are tucked behind old walls and shuttered windows. Some are hidden in plain sight. Some are buried beneath your feet, sealed inside forgotten graveyards, cellars, alleyways, and stories polite history never bothered to tell. This is not the Philadelphia of powdered wigs, field trips, and nice little plaques. This is the city’s darker side—full of scandal, vice, sin, murder, restless spirits, and history that lingers long after the bodies are gone.

On this wicked walk through Colonial Philadelphia, uncover some of the stories that made it one of the most fascinating and haunted cities in America. SEEK out the stories they tried to bury, EXPLORE the places where the past still breathes, and WANDER the narrow streets & alleys where the dead don’t always die.
