It just wouldn’t be Halloween without a little ghost hunting, and the Palmetto State is chock full of haunted places and spooky spaces to find them.

The ghost dog roams a five-mile stretch of old Buncombe Road from the cemetery to Goshen Hill Plantation. Legend has it that no matter how fast you’re driving, the ghost hound will be running alongside you at the same pace.

6. Ghost & Dungeon Walking Tour, Charleston, SC

There’s nothing better to get your Halloween senses tingling than a trip through dark dungeons, alleyways, and churches. This 90-minute tour takes you to some of the most haunted sites in the Holy City, including a 20-minute stop at famed Provost Dungeon. This area is bursting with paranormal activity, having been a holding place for prisoners of the Revolutionary War.
