    Old Sainte Antoine Cemetery Paranormal Investigation

    As someone with an interest in the paranormal, I found this experience very inclusive, interesting and engaging. The host Dominique was clearly very passionate and knowledgeable about his line of work and I really enjoyed his engaging way of telling stories and how helpful he was with using the equipment. The history aspect was fascinating as well, I learned many new things on this tour. Overall, this was a great, interesting and fun experience and at a very reasonable price. I definitely recommend booking with Haunted Montreal or Dominique as I'm sure it will be worth your time!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for this amazing review! Dom is indeed very passionate and is an expert on paranormal investigations! I will be sure to FWD this to him!

    Very disappointed, see comments above

    We received the cancellation notice after the event. We drove three hours to Montreal plus a hotel stay for this. My wife and daughter were very disappointed. We waited at the meeting point a half hour early and waited a half hour beyond the meeting time in the rain waiting for the tour guide extremely disappointed despite getting her money back.

    Response from the operator: I am very sorry to hear about your experience. Our host was violently ill and contacted us that afternoon to inform us that he would be unable to do the investigation. We immediately sent the cancellation notice to all clients at 2:31 pm with a refund included. We will be happy to offer you free tickets to another tour given the ordeal you went through. Please contact us via email.

    Super Cool Private Paranormal Investigation of Haunted Nightclub

    Had a fantastic time at a paranormal investigation today with Dominique Desormeaux of Investigation 13 and Haunted Montreal at downtown Montreal's infamous nightclub formerly Club L'Esprit, Club 1234, now called Yoko Luna. Location was a funeral salon for about 60-70 years. First time I go back to this location to investigate in over 10 years! Lots of spirit activity and cool living peeps. Experience did not disappoint. Lots of goosebumps and more. Lots of footage to review, mostly audio. Maybe EVPs? We shall see.

    Response from the operator: Thank you, Aurora, for reviewing this unique paranormal investigation at 1234 De La Montagne! I am glad that you enjoyed your company - both living a dead - in the most haunted building in Downtown Montreal! Hopefully in the future we will be able to offer more paranormal investigations there with the talented and knowledgeable Dom Desormeaux! Fingers crossed!

    If you're in doubt - go!

    Dom is super knowledgeable and helped with all of the questions I had. I went solo and I was a bit nervous, but I never felt left out and the anxiety quickly dissolved when we started the tour. It was such an interesting and pleasant experience. Make sure to bring a warm jacket and rain coat, just in case. I personally felt way more activity at the kids cemetery, but all places we went to had activity as well. 2h passed by and it felt like only 30min! I'd love to stay a bit more on each place to try to communicate with them. I'm definitely doing this again next time I'm in Montreal, it was a great experience and I cannot recommend it enough for both skeptical and non-skeptical people.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for this detailed and positive review! Travelling solo can always be intimidating which is why at Haunted Montreal we try and make everyone feel welcome and included. I am so glad you enjoyed your experience with Dom so much! I will be sure to FWD this to him!

    Very Insightful

    My fiancee booked this tour for her and myself as I'm currently visiting from the UK and we cannot recommend it enough. Dom was incredibly knowledgeable on the area and had many of his own and others' experiences to share. He makes sure everyone gets involved. There was enough equipment for everyone to have something. Given the sheer amount of history there it would be almost impossible not to find something. We're already discussing booking again the next time I'm in Canada.

    Response from the operator: Thank you, Sophie, for this marvelous review! It is always a pleasure hosting clients from the UK, a very haunted place indeed! I actually ran the entertainment department at the London Dungeon for a few years in the early 1990s, so know many ghost stories from across the pond! Dom is an amazing host and I am pleased he was so attentive to you, your fiancée and the rest of the group. I will be sure to FWD this to him!

    Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Montreal.

    How much does Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal cost?

    +

    Prices start at $25 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Montreal usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Montreal is not rushed.

    Is Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 25 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Montreal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal?

    +

    Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Montreal can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Montreal and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Montreal within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Montreal?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Montreal experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Old Montreal Walking Tour | Small Group (Max 10) | by MTL Detours, The Original Montreal Mural Arts Tour by Spade & Palacio, Montreal Mile End Food Tour with Bagel, Poutine and 7 Tastings. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Montreal?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Montreal?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal?

    +

    Included: Ghost-hunting tools such as Dowsing Rods, EMF Readers, Temperatures Guns and other devices. Not included: Ghost-hunting apps. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal?

    +

    The Ghost Walk begins at the statue of Sir Wilfred Laurier in the southern part of Dorchester Square near René Lévesque Boulevard (Peel Metro). Please arrive approximately 5-10 minutes before the adventure starts. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Transportation options are wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Paranormal Investigation Ghost Tour in Montreal if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
