Dare to explore Toronto’s iconic haunted village? After dark, The Village at Black Creek transforms from a charming window into the past into a place of shadowy figures, phantom footsteps, and chilling encounters. On this 75-minute guided tour, you’ll step inside historic buildings and hear the true stories of those who never left. Climb the stairs of Second House, where something still lingers. Enter the Manse (if you dare), where an angry presence makes itself known. And brave Burwick House, where a grieving spirit may still be searching for her child. Flashlights are provided. Nerves are not. Not recommended for young children or easily frightened adults. Tickets are vanishing now. Paid parking only ($10.20).

For a century, the Don Valley Brick Works made the bricks that built Toronto. Beneath the veneer of industry and progress lies a history of grit, tragedy, and restless spirits. Those same bricks found their way into many of the city’s most haunted places. Some say the hauntings cling not to the land, but to the bricks themselves. Once you know which buildings, you may never look at them the same way again. Trace the rounds of a phantom Night Watchman. Listen for a child’s ghostly footsteps above the fire-breathing kilns. Confront the chilling legend of the Cabbagetown Monster that lurks in the tunnels beneath the city. Limited nights at Evergreen Brick Works this August. Book now before this special event disappears.

For the first time ever, the Toronto Railway Museum is opening its doors to paranormal investigations! Once the museum closes to the public, a group of just 12 guests will enter the John Street Roundhouse with The Haunted Walk.

And yes, we’re going inside the trains.

You’ll investigate inside historic railway cars and among artifacts that have travelled across Canada, carried generations of passengers, and witnessed extraordinary moments in Canadian history, including one of the country’s deadliest disasters. Could objects like these retain some trace of the people who once used them, or the events they witnessed? Over two hours, you’ll hear ghost stories from the Roundhouse and the rails as you take part in a series of traditional and modern paranormal experiments. Together, we’ll see what, if anything, answers back. Nothing is staged. Nothing is rigged. Nothing is guaranteed.

Come make paranormal history with us. Only 12 spots per session. Four nights only: October 9, 10, 16 & 17. Ages 16+. SOLD OUT! Waitlist available.

NEW FOR 2026 – 8 NIGHTS ONLY! Most Torontonians have seen Stanley Barracks at Exhibition Place. In recent decades, very few have been inside. Built in 1840–41, it’s the last major surviving building of Toronto’s “New Fort.” This Halloween season, we’re going in after dark.

A world of officers, mess dinners and parade grounds once filled this place. During the First World War, German and Austrian prisoners were held behind barbed wire. A generation later, men and women in uniform passed through on their way to war, some never to return and many forever changed. When the military left, families turned barrack rooms into crowded homes. If places can retain something of the people and events that shaped them, this one has had nearly two centuries to absorb both the beauty and the horror of life. For some who have spent time here, the past has seemed to reach across the years in ways hard to explain. After so much life, loss and upheaval, what, if anything, remains?

Over two hours, you’ll explore the building from basement to top floor with a small group. Traditional and modern paranormal experiments will put that question to the test. Nothing is staged and nothing is guaranteed. We’ll provide the history, the experiments and the darkness. After all, some questions can only be asked in the dark. All participants must be 16 +.
