Canada’s Maritime and Atlantic Provinces have no shortage of ghost stories.
From Halifax’s historic waterfront and the old streets of Saint John to Charlottetown’s Victorian buildings and coastal communities, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island are full of unusual history and local legends.
Centuries of maritime trade, shipwrecks, military conflicts and life along the Atlantic coast have inspired stories of ghostly sailors, haunted buildings, mysterious encounters and places where the past supposedly refuses to stay buried.
Some tours explore reported hauntings and supernatural folklore. Others take visitors through historic neighbourhoods, old fortifications, cemeteries and locations associated with darker chapters of Maritime history.
Whether you’re looking for an evening ghost walk, a haunted-history tour or something a little different, there’s plenty to discover.
