A Message From The Original Ghost Tours Miami:
We want to welcome and Thank our Guests.
We feature a Family Friendly Walking Tour in an area of old Miami.
We also offer unique Tours not suitable for ages 6 and younger.
The Spirit Worlds have always attracted seekers, visionaries,
open minded adventurers, as well as, tricksters and charlatans.
On our Public and Private Tours there will be no Holy Water
cast on smoking unholy ground. We value & respect our Guests.
We do mention death, rape, ghosts, violence, spirits and angels.
On our nighttime tours we walk the softly lit streets of Coconut Grove.
Haunted Histories, First Hand accounts of Ghostly Manifestation,
science and paranormal research, are some of what we offer.
We avoid remote, dark and dangerous locations prowled and inhabited by the sad, mentally ill and violent 'Living Souls' who
have lost their way in this world. We pray for their recovery.
Our unique Tours, not suitable for kids 6 and under, are often in
less civilized areas. However; Even in our 'Haunted Forest' experience,
we make every effort to provide a protected environment.
Your safety, entertainment, and pleasure are 3 of our most important goals.
Artist Jeffrey Passage created this beautiful work. He says this is his only rendition, so far, showing a 'night sky' over the Coconut Grove Playhouse.

Walk in the footsteps of indigenous people who used this high ridge for travel and for sanctuary from Hurricane and other perils. Of rum runners, pirates, buccaneers, women who labored in a wilderness to protect loved ones, young U.S. Army and Navy personnel on their way to end all wars, vagabond pilots, and one very determined man.

THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD TOO: We are filled with hope. Ghost Hunters and Storytellers that we are, we got on Facebook. A BIG Deal..., for us! THIS is our Web Page, and we are learning to post comments and mention events on the 'facebook' pages as well. Find us at Ghost Tours Miami Haunted Florida and at Ghost Grove.
So many of us have lost things that may touch the foundation of our families, friends, communities; Our whole world. Even if we have managed to keep a roof overhead, people close to us are in great need, and by helping them, our own resources are stretched too thin. In our contributions to others, what we have to offer is seldom 'cold hard cash.' We just don't have much. What we do have are blessings, a little experience, faith in the American Spirit, and the determination to fight for our future. We reject war, but we are willing to get our hands dirty. We keep meeting artists who need a place to show their art, crafts, and imaginative work. This year we are going to give some space, time and energy to promote artisans, storytellers, toy makers, and 'other world' artists. We really don't know what this means...... yet. We know Tellers with scary, spirited stories. Fiction and True Tellings! There is a Fiber Artist who creates dolls that make us laugh and gasp at the same time. A gal who may be a Faerie Queen herself, creates costumes and jewelry, capes and wearable art that make us feel like characters in our own fantasy. These folks are from Miami, Key West, the islands of Hawaii, and various places in our beautiful country. We will be asking for lots of feedback and welcome your comments, thoughts and ideas.
--------------------------------------------- Coconut Grove Cemetery --------------------------------------- Rumor has it, Michael Jackson filmed scenes for the 'Thriller' video at the Coconut Grove Cemetery. Scenes of dancing zombies seen in the 1983 video set the eerie mood. -------------------------- A friend of the Tour did some research; He found information that shows the music video was filmed on the West Coast... If MJ danced among the Grove graves........... it was alone with the spirits, for secret inspiration.

Womens Club of Coconut Grove
On October 31st 1921 members and their families gathered in the new Clubhouse. Mrs. Woolley whimsically suggested "how necessary it was to dedicate the fireplace on Halloween because it was the time of witches, elves and fairies, when they could bring their protection to the hearth." When the fire was lit, the lights lowered, the "Bomb of Happiness" exploded and hurled its parts all over the room. It was thought that those who caught bits of the bomb would be successful.
November 17th 1921, the newspaper gave a detailed account of the official, public housewarming: "Walter DeGarmo designed the new Clubhouse made of native rock in a Spanish architectural style. The main room had a veranda on three sides. The North veranda ran back to the library and the South veranda to the kitchen." DeGarmo's design included an outdoor amphitheater at the rear. The auditorium stage could be opened to the back garden to facilitate outdoor entertainment. "This unique stage is the best of its kind in the state."
