Ghost hunting, but make it interactive.

Spirit Xperience turns Savannah’s historic streets into a small-group night with storytelling, supplied gear, and chances to communicate with the spirits. You walk about a half mile total, make several stops at well-known haunted spots, and keep moving at a pace that does not feel like a race.

What I like most is the hands-on angle. Mike (a former pastor who studied at Emory’s Candler School of Theology) brings grounded history and folklore, while Ty adds a clairvoyant perspective that makes the paranormal part feel like an experience, not just a lecture.

One consideration: there’s no guarantee you’ll get activity. You’re paying for the interaction, the investigation tools, and the guides’ approach, not a promised supernatural event.

Key Things That Make This Tour Work

• Small nightly groups so you are not stuck in a crowd
• Mike and Ty together for history, folklore, and clairvoyant interaction
• Paranormal equipment included for mini investigations
• Half-mile, easy walking with multiple stops so you do not rush through anything
• Two tour options focused around Wright Square or Monterey Square

Savannah’s Ghost Tour That Gives You Something to Do

Savannah does night tourism well. But a lot of ghost tours are basically a walking podcast, with the same points delivered in the same tone every time. Spirit Xperience is different because you are not just listening. You are participating.

The vibe starts with the fact that this runs as a limited, one-tour-per-night style. That matters more than it sounds. When guides are not trying to sprint from one group to another, the pace feels human. You get time to ask questions. You get time to use the tools. And you get time to stand still at the stops long enough to notice what’s happening.

You also feel the focus on comfort and flow. The walk covers about half a mile total, and the route is paced for conversation and investigation. It is still outdoors in Savannah weather, so you will want comfortable shoes and a plan for staying hydrated.

Mike and Ty: History Lessons With a Paranormal Method

The heart of this tour is the guide team. Mike and Ty are not just stand-up storytellers. They combine Savannah lore with a practical paranormal approach.

Mike’s background is a big part of why the tour feels balanced. He’s a local owner who used to be a pastor and studied at Emory University’s Candler School of Theology. That doesn’t mean the tour turns into church. It means you tend to get thoughtful context: why certain stories took hold, how locals talk about hauntings, and how people interpret the unexplained.

Then Ty comes in with the clairvoyant angle. Ty is described as someone who interacts with the spirit realm, and that shows up as more than dramatic flair. The expectation is that you will be guided into a more active mindset during the investigation moments. If you are the type who likes to test theories and ask what could be going on, you will probably enjoy that structure.

Both guides also bring experience from the paranormal world, including private investigations. The result is a tour that tries to connect the dots instead of tossing out spooky facts and moving on.

How the Walking Plan Keeps the Night Comfortable

You might expect a walking ghost tour to feel like you are on a mission. This one is more like a nighttime stroll with purposeful stops.

Here’s what that looks like in practice:

• You cover about 1/2 mile during the full experience.
• You make multiple stops at haunted locations, so you are not just walking between big moments.
• The walk is described as not strenuous, and it is timed so the night stays enjoyable instead of exhausting.

That half-mile number is a great detail because it tells you what kind of evening it is. This is not a long-distance city hike. You can come without needing a full training plan.

Also, you are encouraged to bring a beverage and wear comfortable shoes. That advice is not filler. Savannah nights can be humid, and the tour includes a stop halfway through for drinks anyway. So plan to bring something or be ready to buy something during the break.

Mini Investigations: What “Interactive” Means Here

“Interactive” can be vague on tours. With Spirit Xperience, it’s more specific: you use paranormal equipment during guided mini investigations.

The approach here seems to work in two layers:

1. Guides set the scene with history and folklore tied to each location.
2. Then you shift into investigation mode with supplied tools and a structured attempt to communicate.

That shift is what makes the tour feel active. You are not just hearing about hauntings. You are being prompted to pay attention and try the process the guides use, under their direction.

Important note: you cannot treat this as a ticket to a guaranteed “proof” moment. The tour is candid about that. But the lack of guaranteed activity does not automatically mean you will be bored. What you’re buying is the chance to participate in the investigation routine, plus the chance to experience Savannah’s spooky storytelling in a hands-on way.

Choosing Your 7:30pm Night: Wright Square vs Monterey Square

Spirit Xperience offers two different walking tours, both about two and a half hours and both starting at 7:30pm.

• Wright Square Tour runs Wednesday and Friday
• Monterey Square Tour runs Thursday and Saturday

Both tours cover roughly the same walking distance and overall structure: multiple stops, investigation moments, and guide-led interaction. So the decision comes down to which square you want to center the night around.

If you like the idea of building your evening around a specific focal point in Savannah, pick the tour that lines up with your dates. If you are visiting for only one night and you are unsure, my practical advice is to choose based on schedule first. You are more likely to have a better trip when you can stay unhurried and consistent with your plans.

The Halfway Drink Stop (And Why It Matters)

About halfway through, the tour pauses for drinks. Drinks are not included, so you purchase separately.

This might sound like a small detail, but it affects how the night feels. After sustained walking and concentration, the break gives you:

• a reset for energy
• time to hydrate
• a moment to take in the setting without the next stop rushing you

It also keeps the tour more comfortable for families and mixed-age groups. Even if you do not plan to buy alcohol, the break helps everyone stay pleasant and engaged through the second half.

Price and Value: $34.95 for an Active Night

Spirit Xperience is priced for what you get, not just for the word ghost in the title.

For youth and adults, the price is $34.95. Children ages 5–12 are $24.95, and infants 0–4 are free.

At that rate, you should think of the cost as paying for three things:

1. Two guide-led personalities (Mike and Ty), each with a distinct style
2. Paranormal equipment included, which is used during the investigation segments
3. A small-group format designed to avoid feeling like you are lost in a crowd

The key value point is that the tour is not long in distance. You are spending about 150 minutes, and you are not covering a massive route. For some people, that is exactly what you want. You get a focused night without it turning into an all-nighter hike.

If you’re comparing it to other Savannah tours, I’d weigh this: do you want a show, or do you want an activity? If you want the activity part, the price starts to make sense fast.

What Kind of Traveler Will Love This

This is a tour for people who like participation and atmosphere at the same time.

You’ll likely enjoy it if you:

• want a hands-on paranormal experience rather than a lecture
• enjoy history and folklore, even when the topic gets spooky
• travel with teens or families and want something that is not just for adults
• like the idea of structured mini investigations with supplied gear

It can also work well for groups that include people who are skeptical. The investigation and interaction give the skeptics something to do besides judge. And the guides’ storytelling keeps the night grounded in the way the stories developed in Savannah.

Who Might Want to Skip It

You might want a different style of tour if you:

• hate the idea of possible silence or no dramatic activity (since nothing is guaranteed)
• prefer straightforward walking tours with no equipment or interactive prompts
• want a very long city walk as the main event

This is designed for a particular experience: a smaller, interactive paranormal night with planned stops and guided attempts at communication. If that is your kind of thing, you’ll probably have a good time. If not, you may feel like you expected a different product.

Practical Tips So Your Night Runs Smooth

A few small choices can make the tour smoother:

• Wear comfortable shoes. You are out walking at night, even if the total distance is not long.
• Bring or plan for a beverage. You’ll have a halfway break to buy drinks.
• Come ready to participate. If you lean back and stay silent the whole time, you will likely get less out of the equipment-driven moments.

Also, if you are sensitive to supernatural talk, keep in mind that this tour is built around studying and interacting with spirits as part of the evening’s goal. The guides keep things structured, but the theme is still paranormal.

Should You Book Spirit Xperience?

I’d book Spirit Xperience if you want Savannah after dark with a mix of folklore, hands-on investigation, and small-group attention. The guide pair matters here. Mike brings a serious framework, and Ty adds the clairvoyant layer that turns the night into something more than a standard ghost walk.

I would not book it expecting proof on demand. Treat it as a guided paranormal interaction experience in historic downtown Savannah, with a comfortable walking plan and included investigation tools.

If you’re visiting Savannah and you want your ghost tour to feel like you are doing something, not just hearing about it, this is one of the better bets on a tight schedule.
