What a great visit, we were captivated by the actor from the start and at no time did we get any stories told. Very nice experience, we loved it. The actor was very good. "Thank you Theodore". Go there and enjoy the great times offered by this FANTOMES DU VIEUX-MONTRÉAL activity.

This was a really great night. The person taking our tickets even made us nervous! But the tour itself wasn't scary -- just very interesting. The guide was amazing. So smart and her character was interesting and engaging. There were a few ruffles with the noise in the city but she handled it really well. I really enjoyed that the stories were historical and brought the past to us and made us really understand how old the city was!

More Educational than spooky

Our guide was nice, animated, and Informative. Her name was Madeline. I enjoyed more the educational aspect of Old Montreal than the Ghost stories. It was a fun history lesson on the natives and settlers from history. I recommend this for education. If you are looking to be legitimately "scared", don't have high expectations. I did enjoy it though.
