Carolina History & Haunts, Greensboro, North Carolina, United States Greensboro was founded in 1808, but settled in the mid 1700s. In a city that has been modernized, you don't ever know where you are actually standing. Sometimes, all you have to do is scratch the surface and the history is just beneath your feet. Some believe that history is still roaming the old streets of Greensboro. Battlefields, war hospitals, epidemics, mass graves, riots, fires are just a few reasons why there have been so many reported hauntings in downtown Greensboro.
Our tours meet 15 minutes before the tour is scheduled to begin at 300 West Washington Street. This is known as the Melvin Municipal Building.

Loved the extra history of Greensboro in addition to the eerie stories that we learned about during the tour. It’s such a cute downtown area with a lot of interesting history. Our tour guide, Olivia, was a lot of fun too!
