The company was founded by Tobias McGriff; a featured guest on Coast to Coast with George Noory and as a subject matter expert on Syfy's "Haunted Highway". The "Uncensored Zombie Tour" is Blue Orb's flagship tour and the inspiration for the best selling book "Savannah Shadows: Tales from the Midnight Zombie Tour" and the hit podcast "Supernatural Science" available on iTunes.

“Scary Ghost Tour”

Reviewed 14 May 2013 NEW

My wife and I took the Midnight Zombies tour for one to hear more about information provided in Tobias McGriff's book Savannah Shadows, and also to meet Tobias himself, who is the tour guide for this particular ghost tour. We weren't disappointed. If you're looking for a tour that will provide a hair raising experience this one is it. My... More

“Amazing, spooky ghost tour”

Reviewed 11 May 2013 NEW

My husband and I took the Zombies Tour from 10pm to midnight. We loved it! Tobias is an excellent tour guide. He's charismatic, a great storyteller, and very knowledgeable about paranormal activity in Savannah. The stories he told us were absolutely chilling. We highly recommend this tour! It was one of our favorite things that we did in Savannah.

“Fascinating!”

Reviewed 8 May 2013 via mobile

We did a couple different tours while in Savannah in early April and the blue orb midnight zombie tour was hands down, the BEST! The group was a good, manageable size and Tobias was an amazing and captivating guide. We will be back with a 1000+ person convention in 2015 and this tour will be the first thing I recommend...

“So fun, so scary Ghost Tour”

Reviewed 8 May 2013

Tobias was great. Easy to understand, very factual and fun. Absolutely my favorite part of my entire trip to Savannah. I was spooked at night the rest of my trip and went back to tour locations several times just to check them out! He gave us an autographed copy of his book at the end. Highly recommend this tour!

“Fun”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

A group of friends and me went on the Midnight Zombie tour. It was fun and the stories were very interesting. The only bad thing i can say is we took a freaky picture and sent it to Tobias and he never responded and he said he would. That was a little disappointing but the tour was fun.

Thank you for taking the time to review your experience. Please let me apologize that you did not receive a response on your photo. That is partially my fault. We have recently tried to take some of the load off of Tobias and have all but insisted he delegate some of the responsibilities to others. He gets 100's of emails... More

“Professional Ghost Tour Guide”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

My husband and I toured with Tobias on the third anniversary of his business. We did the Zombies tour and absolutely loved it. If you're looking for a professional tour guide who has the ability to speak intelligently then tour with Tobias. We all received his book after the tour and it really supplemented his stories. I was amazed at... More

Thank you so much for your kind review. Tobias is a wealth of information and I can attest to the fact that he never stops learning, which is why many guests that tour with him more than once say it is never the same experience twice. There are many ghost tours in Savannah and we are so pleased you chose... More

“Blue Orb Tour with Tobias”

Reviewed 6 May 2013

Just returned from Savannah and thoroughly enjoyed my Blue Orb tour. The owner, Tobias conducted the tour. He was full of knowledge of Savannah and the haunting of past and present. The reason I loved the tour was it was based on facts, not just jokes of ghosts. He talked about why there is so much spiritual unrest in Savannah... More

Thank you for your review! I am glad you enjoyed your tour with Tobias and our model for conducting tours. Everyone loves a good story but it is so refreshing to see some evidence of the historical events being mentioned and even better if a ghost or two shows up. Some tour companies actually "guarantee a paranormal event" which is... More

My wife and I went to Savannah for our 25th wedding anniversary and this was one thing she wanted to do.

“Just enough spook”

Reviewed 3 May 2013

As I watched other ghost tours drive-by, I was glad to have been on a walking tour. Melissa was our guide. She put just enough into the tour to make it all plausible. The tour is based on real history, perhaps seen from a different angle. Melissa even took the time after the tour to show and tell our group... More
