Step into a Victorian winter’s tale where the magic of Christmas mingles with the macabre on our Ghosts of Christmas Past Walking Tour in Helen, Georgia! Long before Santa and sugarplums, Christmas was a season for gathering by the fire and sharing ghost stories—a tradition Charles Dickens immortalized in A Christmas Carol. This year, we’re bringing that eerie holiday custom back to life with a lantern-lit journey through Helen’s most haunting corners.
As snowflakes twirl through the crisp mountain air, your guide will lead you down shadowy streets and cobblestone paths, sharing chilling tales of phantom carolers, spirits of Christmases long forgotten, and the lingering echoes of Helen’s haunted past.
Bring along some hot cocoa and let the eerie enchantment of the season wrap around you. Expect goosebumps, gasps, and a little old-world magic—just as Dickens intended.

**Unicoi Hill Park – Helen’s Hidden Haunt** Tucked just off Main Street in the heart of Alpine Helen, **Unicoi Hill Park** is a pocket of eerie enchantment where whispers drift through the trees and shadows play tricks on the unwary. By day, it’s a charming greenspace with picnic spots and a bubbling creek, but as dusk falls, the air grows thick with mystery. Legends say the ghost of a long-lost gold prospector still wanders the hillside, his phantom pickaxe echoing against the stones. The rustling leaves seem to murmur secrets, and some swear they’ve seen flickering lantern lights.
