Follow your historical guide and explore a completely different side of Lower Fort Garry
The residents of Lower Fort Garry have been complaining to the Governor about unexplainable events around the fort. Tonight, all the residents are at a masquerade ball at Upper Fort Garry. Governor Colvile took advantage of this and has your guide and you to help investigate while the fort is deserted… Beware, you explore at your own risk!
Listen to stories that unveil the dark past; discover unexplained phenomena; visit locations where disturbing and significant events have taken place and may possibly still be haunted….
**Please note, the ticketing platform Zeffy is having issues sending emails. We have heard that as a result you are not getting tickets. Your name will be on a list at the door as well**
This will be a 90 minute walking tour where your personal guide will tell ghost stories throughout the site. These stories are those encountered by workers and residents over the years. Stories are unsettling and include tales of murder, drinking, and suicide. We do not recommend those under 10 years of age attend.
MAKE IT A NIGHT OUT! Come before your reserved tour time (we recommend 1-1.5 hours ahead, so if you book a 7:00 tour, come at 5:30pm) to enjoy a full TACO BAR created by Life a Little Sweeter Cafe. Reserve your seat with your tour. OR just come for the Tacos!
**Please note, this tour is run by Friends of Lower Fort Garry, a non-profit organization created to support Lower Fort Garry National Historic Site**
