What to know about Edmonton Ghost Tours
Old Strathcona Ghost Tour
One of their tours includes the Old Strathcona Ghost Tour.
This one-hour tour takes you to the Strathcona Hotel, the Princess Theatre, and the Strathcona High School, as well as other buildings, houses, and shops that have ghosts, murders, or some kind of mystery. According to Edmonton Ghost Tours, all these stories are true stories that come from area residents and business owners. Veteran storyteller Nadine Bailey will be the one telling these stories.
You’ll be able to catch this experience at 7 p.m. on specific weekdays for $20. The schedule is available on Edmonton Ghost Tours’ website.
University of Alberta Ghost Tour
The University of Alberta tour is just over an hour long. This series shares stories about ghosts like the little boy at The Rutherford House and the scientist who is still seen walking the halls of the Power Plant. You can catch this tour for $25 every Wednesday and Thursday at 9 p.m. until Oct. 1, and then the schedule will include Mondays and Tuesdays until Nov. 5.
Haunted Trolley Ghost Tour
They’re also hosting tours on Edmonton’s streetcar: Haunted Trolley Tour.
As the sun sets, you’ll be able to hear the horrible history of the area and some of Edmonton’s most spooky and gruesome ghost stories. For this tour, hop aboard the High Level Streetcar and breeze across High Level Bridge and throughout Old Strathcona. During this tour, you’ll actually get the chance to stop in the centre of the bridge for photo opportunities as well; how cool?
The Haunted Trolley Tours will only be available on select dates during October. Tickets haven’t been released yet, so keep an eye out for those coming out in the next couple of weeks.

If you’re wanting something this August, the Edmonton Streetcar and Cocktails Tour is perfect for those 18 and above who still want to hop aboard the trolley.
For $55, your ticket will include two handcrafted cocktails and a scenic ride on the Edmonton streetcar while you learn its history. Here, you’ll get to experience the great views of Old Strathcona, Edmonton’s river valley, North Saskatchewan River, and the Alberta Legislature building.
Haunted Pub Tour
During this pub tour, you can join in and visit some of Old Strathcona’s most iconic and haunted pubs on Whyte Avenue. While you hear about Old Strathcona history and mysteries, you can take a sip from any brew of your choosing. This is an event for those 18 and over only.
