Whisper in the Walls: Haunted Tours at The Bembridge House

Step inside Long Beach’s most haunted home—where history whispers, shadows stir, and every room has a ghostly story to tell.

You are invited to the Whisper in the Walls: Haunted Tours at the Bembridge House—but beware—this will be no ordinary visit.

On your chosen night, you will step through the doors and join a small group of fellow explorers—just six to eight at a time—guided by lantern light through shadowed staircases, haunted rooms, and the attic where the whispers grow loudest.
