America’s Most Haunted Firehouse is a two-hour nighttime ghost tour and hands-on paranormal investigation inside the historic Key West Firehouse Museum.

Your experience begins with a 45-minute immersive AudioPhonic™ Tour, followed by 75 minutes of independent paranormal investigation where you’ll investigate the firehouse yourself using paranormal investigation equipment provided by us.

It’s both a Key West ghost tour and a real paranormal investigation.

Unlike a traditional walking ghost tour, you won’t simply hear stories about haunted places and move on. You’ll spend the evening inside one historic firehouse and have the opportunity to investigate its reported paranormal activity for yourself.

There are no staged encounters. Whatever happens is 100% authentic.

No ghost-hunting or paranormal investigation experience is required.

We’ll explain how to use the equipment and give you some basic investigation techniques before you begin.

Experienced paranormal investigators are welcome too, and you may bring your own equipment if you prefer.

Paranormal investigation equipment is included with your Haunted Firehouse experience.

Available equipment may include spirit boxes, thermal cameras, dowsing rods, pendulums, trigger objects, and equipment used for techniques such as the Estes Method.

You are also welcome to bring your own paranormal investigation equipment.

No. The Haunted Firehouse is a genuine paranormal investigation, not a haunted attraction.

No actors hide in the building, no jump scares, no special effects, and no staged ghost activity.

If something happens during your investigation, we didn’t cause it.

No paranormal activity can ever be guaranteed during a genuine ghost investigation.

Some nights at the Key West Firehouse are extremely active. Others are quiet.

Ghosts have never been particularly good at keeping appointments.

That unpredictability is part of conducting a real paranormal investigation rather than visiting a staged haunted attraction.

The Haunted Firehouse experience includes approximately 45 minutes of haunted history followed by 75 minutes of hands-on paranormal investigation.

During the first part of the evening, you’ll learn about the historic Key West firehouse and some of the spirits associated with it.

Then you’ll have the opportunity to investigate areas of the building yourself using paranormal equipment and traditional ghost-hunting techniques.

Each Haunted Firehouse investigation is limited to just 13 guests.

The small group size gives you more time with the equipment and lets you investigate quieter areas of the firehouse without being surrounded by a large tour group.

You can investigate together or split into smaller groups throughout the building.

There are no manufactured scares, but investigating a haunted firehouse after dark can be genuinely creepy.

You may find yourself sitting quietly in a dark bunk room, listening to a spirit box, watching a trigger object, or attempting to communicate with someone who once lived or worked here. People have been touched and seen or heard spirits beside them.

Some guests find that much scarier than a traditional haunted house.

You only need comfortable shoes and a fully charged phone to participate in the Haunted Firehouse investigation.

You may also want to bring headphones or earbuds for certain audio investigation techniques.

Personal paranormal investigation equipment is welcome.

Yes. Guests are encouraged to take photographs and personal video during the Haunted Firehouse paranormal investigation.

You may also want to review your photos, videos, and audio afterward.

Sometimes the most interesting part of an investigation is discovering something you didn’t notice while you were there.

The Haunted Firehouse is a nighttime paranormal investigation designed for older children, teenagers, and adults.

Guests under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

Because parts of the experience take place in low light inside a genuinely haunted building and include histories that involve death and murder, parents should consider whether it’s appropriate for their child.

The Haunted Firehouse paranormal investigation takes place inside a historic two-story building, and some areas may require the use of stairs.

Guests with mobility limitations or other accessibility questions should contact us before booking.

We’ll be happy to explain the building's current conditions and help you decide whether the experience will work for you.

Yes. The Haunted Firehouse paranormal investigation takes place primarily inside an air-conditioned historic building.

That makes it very different from most Key West ghost tours, which require you to spend much of the evening walking outdoors or in a trolley with no air conditioning.

America’s Most Haunted Firehouse takes place inside the Alex Vega Key West Firehouse Museum at 1024 Grinnell Street in Old Town Key West, Florida.

The historic firehouse is located away from the busiest portion of Duval Street but is still convenient to downtown Key West.

Street parking is available in the neighborhood surrounding the Key West Firehouse Museum, although availability can vary.

The firehouse is also easily accessible by bicycle or on foot from much of Old Town Key West, so walking or biking can be a convenient option if you’re staying nearby.

If you’re driving, we recommend allowing a little extra time before your scheduled investigation to find parking and arrive at the firehouse.

Private paranormal investigations of the historic Key West Firehouse may be available for paranormal teams, groups, special events, and media productions.
