Niagara Falls is famous for its breathtaking views, majestic waterfalls but also for its spooky places. From mysteriously old tunnels to haunted mansions, Niagara is one of the best places for tourists to test their fearlessness. Awaken the daredevil inside you and put on your ghost hunter costumes to indulge in the most haunted activities in Ontario.

The tunnel is one of the scariest attractions in Niagara Falls

According to urban legends, the screaming tunnel witnessed the death of a young girl hundreds of years ago. While escaping a burning barn, the girl’s clothes caught on fire, and when attempting to reach the water that ran through the tunnel, she died there because of severe burns. Another story recounts the tale of a jealous father burning her daughter alive in the tunnel. No matter how she died, the burning girl’s screams still echo in the tunnel. Do you have the courage to walk through these haunted tunnels and hallways?

Go on the famous Ghost Tours of Fort George

Attempt the hair-raising ghost tour in the creepy streets of Niagara-on-the-Lake! As a National Historic Site, Fort George welcomes both departed souls and mortals alike for a walk when the night is still young. Various paranormal sightings have been reported around the Fort, probably the performance of a dead little girl who goes by the name of Sarah Ann. Fear not, she will gladly and smilingly join you for a game of peak-a-boo!

Can you hear the screams coming from the Nightmares Fear Factory?

According to rumours, the Nightmares Fear Factory sits atop the Cataract Coffin Company…an old coffin factory. The owner, Mr. Abraham Mortimer, crushed to death by an overturned coffin, still haunts the place to this day, ensuring the progress of coffin-building. Take a stroll along the rooms of the old factory and say hello to old Mr. Abraham!

Try Niagara’s haunted hallways if you’re brave

The haunted hallways are highly recommended if you like spooky surprises. The darkness of the corridors is a total mood setter and creates that horror-movie feeling that makes you jump every now and then.

End your horror tour with the haunted house on Clifton Hill

Filled with the complete horror paraphernalia, the haunted house isn’t for the faint-hearted. Every turn is sinister and has a ghost, skeleton or ghoul ready to pounce on unprepared mortal souls. Assess your level of fear, courage, and wits by walking through the doors of the haunted house.

Visit Robert Ripley’s Believe It or Not!

Check out the bizarre collection of exhibits that will send a chill down your spine. Shaped like a fallen Empire State Building, the museum is actually over 10,000 square feet and contains unusual and grotesque items like two-headed animals, shrunken heads, and a moving 4D movie theatre.

Niagara’s scary attractions will make you successfully face your fears

Whatever you encounter during the tour, it will only make you stronger. Prepare yourself for spooks, spirits and a wide range of bizarre encounters.
