Hello Members:

Please see the message below:

The iconic Stanley Park Ghost Train is gearing up to take riders on a haunted Halloween journey from October 10 to October 31. Climb aboard for Ghosts in the Graveyard, a rollicking ride filled with creepy and entertaining surprises and spectacularly spooky sights!

“It’s so great to see the return of the Ghost Train to Stanley Park,” said Brennan Bastyovanszky, Chair of the Vancouver Park Board. “Riding the Ghost Train is a time-honoured tradition for many families in Vancouver, and we are thrilled to have it back on track and able to once again offer this experience to residents and visitors alike.”

The Ghost Train will operate daily from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., with matinee slots available on Saturdays and Sundays from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., except on Thanksgiving Day. Riders will travel through the eerie woods of Stanley Park, transformed into a haunted cemetery, where they will encounter imaginative characters and captivating theatrical performances by the Mortal Coil Performance Society.

In addition to the ride, guests can enjoy ghoulish graveyard décor, family-friendly autumn photo spots, and food trucks in the railway plaza. Matinee rides will feature a fright-free experience without the theatrical performances, perfect for younger riders.
