This Titanic-era steamship spent nearly 60 years navigating some of the most haunted waters in the Great Lakes, where shipwrecks, tragic losses, and sightings of phantom vessels were frighteningly frequent. Is it any surprise the ship has a few ghosts of its own? From ghostly figures at the Bellhop’s Station to eerie encounters in the ballroom, every corner of the SS Keewatin holds a chilling surprise. Don’t miss this rare chance to explore this legendary vessel under the cover of night on an exclusive, spine-chilling tour from the team at The Haunted Walk. Tickets are slowly sinking now!

Whispers from Our Guests...

A fantastic experience on a beautiful boat! Our guide’s knowledge, passion, and dramatic edge helped to create the perfect tour for a 'spooky,' cooler, and slightly rainy evening. We are still not sure how the window in the drawing room rattled, moved, and then opened and closed—was it the wind? Perhaps... perhaps not! We can't recommend this highly enough!

We were very excited to attend a Haunted Walk on a Titanic-era ship! We arrived and were immediately greeted and checked in by our guide. Throughout the tour, they were fantastic. It’s very evident that they love their job and are extremely knowledgeable about the ship. We had such a great date night thanks to the team—I even got to see 'the lady in white.' We would absolutely return!

Our host was wonderful. The stories were engaging and it was truly an amazing experience to tour the SS Keewatin. We were so lost in the stories and the exploration of the ship that we didn't even remember to get pictures because we were so engaged in the moment. Highly recommend!
Nicole Leeder⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My friend and I did the Haunted Walk at the SS Keewatin. Our host was fantastic and very engaging. The stories being told gave me goosebumps and really set the mood. It was great to explore the ship after dark and soak in the history. I would highly recommend this to anyone. We even caught a creepy photo in one of the rooms that looked just like two glowing eyes!

I LOVED the ghost tour of the SS Keewatin! The Titanic-era ship itself is fascinating and full of carefully arranged artifacts and period furniture - it's like immersing yourself in another time. The spooky stories, so wonderfully animated by our tour guide really came to life in this setting. This tour makes for a unique date or a memorable night out with friends or family - I highly recommend it!
