Embark on a spooky adventure with us as we invite you to join our moonlight walk around the mysterious Mackenzie King Estate nestled deep inside Gatineau Park. As we lead you through this secluded getaway we will explore the former Prime Minister’s incredible property, his passion for spiritualism and the supernatural, and share some of our favourite ghost stories from the grounds and surrounding area. What makes this tour truly special is the rare opportunity to explore the estate at night and venture inside two of the historic and haunted buildings on the property, including MacKenzie King’s original cottage built in 1903. Don’t miss out on this extraordinary opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich history, supernatural tales, and eerie allure of the Mackenzie King Estate.

For some, cemeteries evoke feelings of fear and dread. For others, they are beautiful spaces filled with memories and reflection. For us, they are places with countless stories waiting to be told. We are proud to partner with Beechwood Cemetery National Historic Site for a one-of-a-kind evening filled with storytelling and chills. We will share the darker history of the cemetery’s early days and the ghost stories connected to some who rest there – including strange reports from staff that continue to this day. The experience will be mostly outdoors as we walk amongst the crypts, headstones and other markers. Our final stop of the evening will give us the rare opportunity to venture inside the Mausoleum after sunset for one last spine-tingling tale.  We recommend all guests bring a flashlight for fun & safety.
