Dixie House Ghost Hunt

Paranormal Investigation in The Dixie House - St. Augustine, FL runs through GhoSt Augustine. Rated 4.9 across 53 reviews. Runs 2 hours. From $59.90.

Overview

The Dixie House sits on the corner of Columbus Street and South Dixie Highway, and for two hours it becomes your investigation site. This is not a walk around town listening to ghost stories. You go inside a house with a reputation as one of the most haunted in St. Augustine and work it like an investigator.

GhoSt Augustine runs the experience, and a member of the Para4ce Investigations Team leads it. You get ghost hunting equipment to use, and mounted video cameras plus thermal cameras record the whole session. At checkout you can add the option to have the videos and thermal shots sent to you afterwards, which lets you recheck anything suspicious once you are home. You are also free to bring your own gear, and cameras are recommended.

The tour suits people who want to participate rather than just watch. The group is capped at a maximum of nine travellers, and reviewers describe the house as active, with some reporting they interacted with spirits during their visit. Anyone hoping for a quieter, story focused history walk should look elsewhere. This one is built around gadgets, participation, and the hope of catching something on camera.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical things shape how this two hour investigation goes, and knowing them in advance makes the night run smoother.

• Bring a camera. The listing recommends bringing cameras, and you may bring any other equipment you like as well. One traveller said being able to use their own devices alongside the provided ones was a highlight of the visit.
• Small group cap. The maximum group size is nine travellers. One reviewer described a group of five inside the house and felt that size suited the space well. The listing does not say how many travellers typically book.
• Gadget-heavy format. Expect lots of devices rather than long storytelling. Most reviewers enjoyed the interactive style, though one felt there were too many gadgets and would have preferred more history and fewer props.
• Two hour session. The session runs two hours inside the house. It is an active, participatory format rather than a seated one, so plan accordingly.
• Plan transport ahead. The meeting point is near public transportation, per the listing. The experience ends back at the same corner, so plan your route there and back accordingly.
• Decide on footage early. Mounted video cameras and thermal cameras record the entire session. If you want the videos and thermal shots sent to you afterwards, that option has to be added at checkout, so think it through before you book.

Common issues. The house is not wheelchair accessible, and the listing confirms this directly. The decor divides opinion: one reviewer found the decorations leaning into the haunted theme a little cheesy, and another felt the ads and QR codes around the house made it feel commercial. The gadget-heavy approach will not suit travellers hoping for a traditional history walk with ghost stories. Refunds require cancelling at least 24 hours before the start time, and changes inside that window are not accepted.
