Heritage Park Ghost Tours starting back up in Calgary this month

Curious Calgarians will have a chance to learn about the ghostly figures that haunt their city by taking a Heritage Park Ghost Tour.

The tours will run every Wednesday for the month of March and half of April — the same tours were run around this time last year and over the past few Halloweens, with tickets selling out fast.

Luckily for you, tickets for this month’s tours are still available… for now.

Each tour is 90 minutes long for adults (60 minutes for family-friendly tours) and take attendees through the alleyways and streets of the Historical Village and verse them in various spooky stories that will make their skin crawl.

The adult tours depart from Gasoline Alley at 7 and 7:30 pm, though the truly terrified would be wise to choose the earlier tour.

Family tours depart at a somewhat brighter 6:30 pm.

The Heritage Park website even offers a warning based on the mature content of the adult tour: “This tour is not recommended for guests under the age of 16. Infants and small children are strongly discouraged.”

So, think you’re brave enough?
