Know Before You Go

  • Tickets: $30.00 – Get tickets
  • Parking: The venues do not have parking lots, but there is on-street parking in Montreal. Pay close attention because many of the spots are metered and you have to pay to use them at certain times to park there. Sometimes large events such as hockey games can cause parking shortages, in which case Haunted Montreal strongly recommends using public transportation.
  • Accessibility: Haunted Griffintown, Haunted Downtown, Haunted Old Montreal, and the Paranormal Investigation are accessible for people with mobility issues (e.g. a wheelchair) but Haunted Mountain and the Haunted Pub Crawl are not due to several sets of stairs that are necessary to reach the haunted locations on Mount Royal, and the stairs to enter and leave the three bars, and our locations in them.
  • Pets: No pets allowed (service animals welcome)
