As the night falls and shadows begin to appear, you will be whisked away by San Francisco-style Trolley where you will see streets and homes, which seem normal, but if you look and listen close enough you will hear echoes of murders and other devastating events. Your host will tell the historic crime tales that took place in familiar neighborhoods of Stanley Park, Gastown, Shaughnessy and more. You will drive by eerie locations and hear gruesome stories about Seaforth Armory, Sylvia Hotel, and Leg in Boot Square. The tour stops to visit Prospect Point in Stanley Park and Mountain View Cemetery in East Vancouver where the troubled spirits occupy their time. Your tour walks through the cemetery to visit the graves of some of the souls that have been featured throughout the tour. You never know who you may bump into along the way……
