Overview

The darkest years of New France are just around the corner! How would you like to spend an hour and a half with the ghost of a famous criminal dating back to the time of New-France? Your ghostly host will lead you through Old Quebec. Let the lugubrious atmosphere that reigns inside the walls of the old city invade you once the sun is gone. The executioner Jean Rattier and his wife Marie Rivière summon you, but one question remains: Will you dare to try it?
