Back from the dead with spooky Halloween fun!
The Ghost Train in Stanley Park is a well-loved Vancouver Halloween tradition for the whole family. We’re thrilled and chilled to welcome the Ghost Train back after an absence of 5 long years. We can’t wait to describe this year’s spine-tingly tale of Ghosts in the Graveyard!
This rollicking ride is filled with supernatural surprises and spectacularly spooky sights! Watch as unsuspecting trick-or-treaters encounter the creepy characters who make the graveyard their home.
The fun begins at 5 pm with a descriptive tour of the site installations and a complimentary hot chocolate from VocalEye. Grab a snack from one of the food vendors and hop aboard the Ghost Train for a ghoulishly fun ride with live description. The train leaves the station at 6 pm and the ride lasts approximately 20 minutes.
Sighted guides are available to meet at the Stanley Park Loop. Tickets are pay-what-you-can for VocalEye users and guests for this date and time only. Admission includes one train ticket (regular price $19.99 including tax and service, a descriptive tour and complimentary hot chocolate). Please contact info@vocaleye.ca or call 604-364-5949 to book your tickets. Availability is limited, so don’t delay! Deadline to book is Oct 18.
