Great tour - as much about the history of Montreal as the supernatural - We did the haunted walking tour and really loved it. Our tour guide was excellent, entertaining and incredibly well educated on the topics at hand. The tour is a great way to see old Montreal and is as much a really interesting lesson in the history of the neighbourhood as a tour of the supernatural, but definitely had elements of both. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to see more of Montreal, learn about it's history and hear some amazing ghost stories

Haunted Montreal tours are awesome! - Haunted old Montreal was so fun. I loved walking down the beautiful cobblestone roads of old Montreal, while hearing about the local ghost stories and history of the area. The storyteller was excellent. It was a wonderful experience and I look forward to going to the other tours that they offer. (I've also tried their Haunted Pub Crawl and it was a hit with my friends too)

A fun and informative evening! - This was my first haunted walk of any sort, so I don't have much to compare it to, but i found this a lot of fun. Our tour guide was very polite, well-spoken and charismatic. You learn a lot of creepy, historical tidbits about Montreal. Was a good time, the family enjoyed it!

Amazing evening! - I had never done a haunted walk before so I wasn’t sure what to expect, it was amazing! I loved learning the origins of Montreal along with stories from past and present. Our guide was wonderful and his story telling kept you engaged and interested. I also brought my partner who doesn’t love history as much as I and he really enjoyed it! Would definitely go again.

Interesting tour of Old Montreal - We did the Haunted Montreal tour of Old Montreal. Our tour guide, Cara aka Edna, was really great! She did a fantastic job, was very informative and entertaining. The tour is as much a history tour as a ghost tour, which made it even better for me. I highly recommend.

Not just entertaining but educational as well! - Loved the latest addition to the Haunted Montreal repertoire! We took a large group of adult English learners on the tour and a great time was had by all. The tour guide was eloquent and expressive, punctuating ghost tales with historical facts and a critical view of the political context of the time. Highly recommend this tour to tourists and newcomers as well as long-time residents for a richer understanding of the more colourful side of Montreal!

Fun evening - We are in town on business and love to do ghost tours. This tour began at 7:30 at night. The tour guides name was I believe, Edna Mae, and she was fantastic! She waited until everyone arrived to the spot before she started to talk. She would hesitate if traffic or people were a noise concern. She projected loudly and kept asking can you hear me in the back. She was very entertaining in her storytelling. It was a very enjoyable evening.
