Meet Our Ghost Hosts
Rick
Living on Block Island for over 20 years, Rick has always embraced the eerie, the gruesome, and the mysterious history of Block Island. As the ghost tour pioneer, there is no one that knows more about the stories we tell. With his love of ghost hunting, he brings along EVP readers, thermometers, and spirit boxes to collect evidence of paranormal activity. Although there is no guarantee that contact will be made, Rick’s tours make it hard for even the most skeptical to deny the existence of ghosts on Block Island. Rick leads the way every for the Spirits with Spirits Tours on Mondays at 6pm. He also leads the Old Harbor Ghost Tours on Fridays and Saturdays at 7&9pm.

Rafael
Rafael is a former collegiate and international basketball player and more recently a retired educator from El Paso, TX. On his initial visit to Block Island, 30 years ago, he was captured by the unique bike rides and beautiful beaches. Locals turned into friends who spoke of ghosts, shipwrecks, Native Americans, and pirates on Block Island. He was intrigued by these stories, started researching and now gets to tell them! Coming from an education background, he is always learning more and adding interesting finds to his tours. Rafael leads the way on the Old Harbor Ghost Tour on Sundays at 7 & 9pm.
