Known as one of the most haunted places in South Florida, Deering Estate offers a series of ghost tours where guests can step into the past and explore the history of the estate. Guides will share stories of historic events, insights into previous inhabitants, and the record of paranormal activity experienced by visitors and staff. Walk the same paths that Indigenous People, Miami’s early settlers, and even Charles Deering walked as we navigate the moments that linger on.
Tours may contain mature subject matter and are recommended for ages 9 and up. Equipment used to detect paranormal activity – such as pendulums, dowsing rods, EMF meters and cameras are welcome!
Ghost tours will be offered on September 7, 14, 21 & 28 and October 5, 12, 19 & 26, 2023, from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
Tickets for the tours are $40 per person. Space is limited. Tickets can be purchased online in advance.
