Itinerary:

As Halloween rolls around for another year, I think it's time to embrace Toronto's urban legends, our mysteries and ghost stories.

We will be doing the ghost tour hosted by Muddy York Walking Tours that will not only reveal the history of some of the city's finest institutions, but it will also give us the opportunity to explore some of its more eerie landmarks, as well!!

We will meet at at the south side of the Royal Ontario Museum, between the ROM and the McLaughlin Planetarium at 6:45 PM and promptly start at 7:00. We expect the event duration to be approximately 2 Hours, and we should be finished by 9:00 PM.

This two-hour tour starts at the front steps outside the Royal Ontario Museum. It travels south to Queen Street and then east, just past Yonge Street. On this tour we discuss the paranormal legends behind a lot of Toronto's famous sites, like Queen's Park, Old City Hall, and Osgoode Hall. The final stop is one of the most notorious of Toronto's haunted buildings. Several people have claimed to experience the unusual here.

After we've been scared out of our woollies, for all who are interested, we'll head out to a pub to socialize and talk about the event.

NOTE: the route isn't circular - it doesn't finish back where it starts. There is convenient subway service to both the starting point and from the ending point.
