Familiar Streets with Deeper Stories
Many visitors recognize Covington from film and television, but the stories explored on this tour were here long before the cameras arrived. While the historic Square has served as a backdrop for productions such as The Vampire Diaries, Sweet Magnolias, In the Heat of the Night, The Dukes of Hazzard, and countless feature films dating back to the 1950's...Covington Ghost Tours focuses on the town’s lived history and the unusual accounts tied to its historical places — not filming locations. Rather than spotlighting what appeared on screen, the tour invites guests to look beyond the cameras and bright lights and consider the stories that have quietly remained part of Covington’s character for generations.
