Baltimore Adults Only Ghost Tour Fells Point Sins Spirits and Poe

Step into Baltimore’s darker side on Devil in the Harbor, an adults-only ghost tour through historic Fells Point where the city’s sins, scandals, and spirits come out after dark. Explore one of the city’s oldest waterfront neighborhoods through the theme of the Seven Deadly Sins. Along the route, you’ll hear stories of pride, greed, lust, gluttony, wrath, envy, and sloth — not as a sermon, but as a chilling look at the ambition, corruption, violence, vice, and weakness that shaped Baltimore’s harbor.. Atmospheric, mature, and historically inspired, Devil in the Harbor is perfect for adults who want a ghost tour with sharper edges, darker storytelling, and a deeper look at the sins that still haunt Baltimore after dark. Guests must be age 16+.
