Summary: My daughter and I had a wonderful evening and highly recommend Haunted Griffintown. We enjoyed following Jason through the streets and along the canal, he’s so funny with his little glasses, an accessory which is part of the show ! He’s a great story teller and really knows how to captivate the audience. The stories were gripping. The ones we preferred : Headless Mary and the little boy on the swing bridge. It was our second time with Haunted Montreal and we’re already looking forward to our next tour.
