Each stop on this tour unveils ghostly narratives that have woven themselves into the fabric of Fort Lauderdale’s identity.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida, renowned for its stunning beaches and lively yachting scene, has a history that stretches far beyond its sunny exterior. Established during the Second Seminole War with a series of fortifications, the city transformed from a frontier outpost into a bustling urban center by the early 20th century. Post-World War II, it experienced rapid growth, evolving into a major tourist destination with a thriving population. Yet, beneath its vibrant facade lies a wealth of haunted sites and tragic stories waiting to be uncovered.

Tour Highlights

Begin your journey with a visit to the Thrive Sculpture by Daniel Popper, a striking 26-foot-tall installation symbolizing growth and community. While its artistic brilliance captivates many, whispers of spectral sightings around this area hint at a darker history. Legends suggest that this land might have served as a Native American burial site before Fort Lauderdale’s development, with ghostly apparitions making their presence known amidst the sculpture’s shadows.

Next, explore the King-Cromartie House, a beautifully preserved example of early 20th-century architecture, relocated to its current spot in the Historic Society Complex on the New River. This house, built in 1907, is famed not only for its architectural charm but also for its ghostly inhabitants. Reports of eerie footsteps and flickering lights suggest that the spirits of its original residents might still wander its hallways. Paranormal investigators have captured unsettling Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVPs), hinting at a lingering presence reluctant to leave its cherished home.

Venture into the Old Coyote Ugly Saloon, a lively bar inspired by its famous movie counterpart. While renowned for its raucous atmosphere and energetic bartenders, this saloon also carries a ghostly reputation. Former employees recount stories of strange occurrences—glasses moving autonomously, sudden cold spots, and shadowy figures glimpsed in the corners of their vision. Could it be the spirits of past patrons, reluctant to leave behind the revelry that once filled the space?

Finally, visit the Original Fat Cats bar, a beloved fixture in Fort Lauderdale’s nightlife scene with a hidden eerie side. Staff and regulars have reported peculiar phenomena—jukeboxes playing selected tracks without any apparent cause, mysterious drafts in sealed rooms, and an unsettling sensation of being watched. Some believe that the ghost of a musician who adored this bar continues to perform here long after the lights have dimmed, ensuring that the party never truly ends.

While this tour is a walking experience and access to private properties is restricted, the thrill of standing on haunted ground will keep your heart racing throughout the evening.
