Fergus Ghost Walks
Join our actors/historians as they lead you on a lantern walk and guided tour of the mysteries and histories of one of Canada's most haunted villages. You'll learn about the gristly end of the town clockmaster, the bagpiper's lament, the famous doctor with a dark secret, the legend of the Ancient Ones and many more captivating stories from the early days of Fergus.
The walk takes about an hour and a half and covers a good portion of downtown Fergus, including a steep hill and some uneven ground. It could be challenging for people with mobility issues. Children are welcome, but please be aware that it is not intended as a children's event. Younger children will soon become bored.Fergus Ghost Walks begin at the Bookery at 8:00pm sharp.Tickets for the Ghost Walk are limited. If online tickets are sold out there may be in-person tickets available. Email shoppe@ bookery.ca (no spaces) for information. The walks usually sell out and there are rarely tickets available on the day of the walk.
Please Be Aware - the comments section on the Fergus Ghost Walk Facebook page has been flooded with posts from people claiming to have tickets they want to resell. These posts are fake, none of them are from legitimate ticket holders. We have disabled the comments.
