Helltown Horrors & Pirates

Step into Provincetown’s dark side on this chilling walking tour of pirates, shipwrecks, murder, and restless spirits. Stroll from MacMillan Pier to Pilgrim Monument and beyond, visiting haunted sites and hearing eerie tales that earned the town its nickname, “Helltown.” Starting at the infamous American Horror Story house, you’ll encounter legends like the Lady of the Dunes and the Cape Cod Vampire. This guided tour covers just under 2 miles, lasts about 90 minutes, and ends near the Provincetown Cemetery—where many report whispers, shadows, and the feeling of being watched.

Pilgrims, Pirates & Pride Audio Tour

Step back in time and into the vibrant heart of Provincetown with our Pilgrims, Pirates & Pride self-guided audio tour. This immersive journey winds through the cobblestone charm of Commercial Street, revealing the hidden layers of a town that has served as a sanctuary for rebels and visionaries for over 400 years. From the very shores where the Pilgrims first dropped anchor in 1620 and the salty legends of pirates and whalers at MacMillan Pier, to the legendary bars and alleyways that cemented P-town as a world-renowned LGBTQ+ haven, you’ll hear the stories that history books often miss. Whether you're standing in the shadow of the towering Pilgrim Monument or exploring the "Flaming Hot" history of the East End, this tour lets you walk at your own pace while the voices of the past bring the Cape’s most spirited town to life.
