History
Haunted Montreal was founded in 2011 by Donovan King, an actor, historian, and tour guide.[1] King previously worked at the London Dungeon in England before returning to Montreal to establish the company.[2] By 2017, King stated the company had documented approximately 150 ghost stories in Montreal.[2]
Tours and Services
The company operates several walking tours throughout Montreal:
Ghost Walks
- Haunted Old Montreal - a walking tour of Old Montreal
- Haunted Griffintown - a tour of the Griffintown neighbourhood, centred on the legend of Mary Gallagher
- Haunted Mountain (Mount Royal) - a tour of Mount Royal
- Haunted Downtown Montreal - a walking tour of downtown Montreal
Additional Experiences
- Haunted Pub Crawl - a tour visiting three pubs in the city[2]
- Paranormal Investigations - ghost hunting experiences led by ghost hunter Dominique Desormeaux[3]
The company also offers private tours and virtual tours.[2]
Media and Publications
Haunted Montreal publishes the Haunted Montreal Blog on the 13th of every month, covering ghost stories and historical research on Montreal locations.[3]
In 2022, the company launched a bilingual YouTube channel on Montreal's history and reported supernatural occurrences. Hosted by Holly Rhiannon and Dr. Mab, the channel covers sites including Villa Maria, the McLennan Library, and Pointe-Saint-Charles, releasing videos every second Saturday in English and French.[3][4]
Background
King holds degrees in theatre, education, and history from Concordia University, McGill University, and the University of Calgary.[5] In a 2018 interview with McGill University, King said he aims to present a fuller account of the city's history during tours, including stories not typically found in mainstream accounts.[5] The company acknowledges that it operates on the unceded Indigenous territory of Tiohtià:ke (Montreal).[5]
In a 2016 interview with CBC News, King stated: "For the totality of these reasons of history, I think that's probably why Montreal is the most haunted city in Canada, if not all of North America."[6]
Coverage
Haunted Montreal has been covered by CBC Radio, CJAD, the Montreal Gazette, and Daily Hive.[3][4] In October 2024, hosts from The Beat 92.5 participated in one of the company's ghost tours.[4]
