Overview

Looking for another Montreal?

Guided by a professional actor and storyteller, this haunted tour is sure to appeal to history buffs, ghost hunters and Allowe’en enthusiasts with its tales of frightening paranormal activity and ghosts haunting unusual places – in the heart of downtown Montreal.

Listen to the nauseating and twisted “legend of the red cross”, as well as the new university residence of Concordia, the Grey Nuns’ former motherhouse where a mysterious crypt is located.

Visit haunted houses, including a run-down squat on “Overdose” Avenue and a spooky old funeral home converted into one of Montreal’s trendiest nightclubs. Sometimes customers don’t ask for so much, especially if they dare to visit the women’s aisles and attic.

And many more stories to discover!

    Carré Norman Bethune Park

    Downtown Montreal is a very busy place. With its towering skyscrapers and a workforce emptying them around 5:00 p.m., it is the last place one would imagine to encounter the paranormal. However, just under the veneer of urban respectability, many dark secrets speak of forgotten graveyards, ghost-infested buildings, and the ghostly activity that follows them.The Haunted Downtown Tour explores bars, forgotten cemeteries, hotels rife with paranormal activity, and many more sites where ghosts have been seen.
