Experience "Death at the Birthplace of Tennessee" Halloween Tours at Blount Mansion

Prepare yourself for a spine-tingling evening at Blount Mansion this October! Step back in time and explore the chilling history of one of Knoxville’s oldest and most haunted landmarks during the "Death at the Birthplace of Tennessee" Halloween Tours. For just $15, you can immerse yourself in an eerie journey through the halls of this historic home, where terror and intrigue await around every corner.

Let our Historically Haunting Halloween Tours be your guide to the afterlife as you uncover the dark and twisted tales of the Blount family, the city of Knoxville, and the rich supernatural lore of the Appalachian region. As you wind through the mansion’s haunted corridors, you’ll hear spine-chilling stories of ghosts, spirits, and unexplained phenomena that still linger in the hills surrounding Knoxville.

On your tour, you may encounter some of the house’s most unsettling artifacts, such as a Victorian hair wreath, a (potentially) possessed doll, and more mysterious relics with eerie backstories. Keep your eyes peeled—restless spirits are said to roam the mansion, and you never know when they might decide to make themselves known.

Tours will be held on select nights beginning on October 18th, with time slots available at 8:00 p.m., 8:30 p.m., 9:00 p.m., and 9:30 p.m. Tickets sell out quickly, so don’t miss your chance to experience this historic haunt in person.
