I chose to wear a suit for the ghost walks 15 years ago. Last year during a heat wave, I’d have left the waist coat at home. But this year I added the pocket watch. So I’m stuck with it. The shirt gets a cold soaking before I put it on.
Two heat wave shots and one in the fog. I think I like the foggy nights for The Halifax Ghost Walk. It’s spookier. And I don’t die in my suit.
Upcoming tours this weekend Thursday July 30 - 8:30 Friday July 31 - 8:30 Saturday August 1 - 7:30 Sunday August 2 - 7:30 Monday August 3 - 5:30 Monday August 3 - 7:30 August 4 6pm & 8:30 August 5 6pm & 8:30 And every night until November 15th Buy local. Support your local street performers
The Halifax Ghost Walk keeps chugging along. Tours every night until November 15. I loves telling the stories of the city. Not just the ghost tales but the history others tour don’t.

I soaked my shirt in cold water before putting on the suit for tonight’s ghost walk in 34° weather.
All the best to the happy couple. Thanks for the invitation but must send my regrets. The show must go on, as Taylor knows. Ghost walks all weekend in the heat wave. And me in my suit.

I’m glad everyone is having a good time this weekend. But the dance party on Argyle St at the Grand Parade is negatively affecting my ability to do my business properly. Telling stories blocks away from the landmarks. Grrrrr Anyway, the Halifax Ghost Walk happens every night. Make a reservation
First night without the overcoat. For the Halifax Ghost Walk. I’m sure it will be back.
There was no Halifax Ghost Walk tonight so I went to check out the other ghost show in town at The Neptune Theatre. I recommend it. Jumps, laughs, intrigue, outrageous. It was a lot of fun.
The town clock is always correct at this time of year. It will slowly drift though. The Halifax Ghost Walk is up and running until November
A wonderful foggy night to kick off the Halifax Ghost Walk of 2026. Also a full moon. And Beltaine. And a wonderful group of people.
First time having dinner at The Upper Deck of @thelowerdeckhfx to hear some jazz standards by @paddysimmms @lukaspearse and Graham on piano Very good all around. And because it’s the lower deck, a requisite Keith’s. Reminder that @thehalifaxghostwalk kicks off the 2026 season on May 1st.
I bought a pocket watch to go with the Halifax Ghost Walk outfit. Had a small private tour tonight with veterinarians in town for a conference. There was a duck there for the start of the tour. If it was looking for health care, it came to right place.
Well that was fun. Two groups that thankfully agreed to not do the tour last night in the rain but tonight in the dry. Cold, but dry. A couple from Ottawa and four students from England currently studying in Hamilton also joined us. 2nd Ghost Walk of the season. Regular season starts May1st.
HGW 2026.1 It begins. A private Halifax Ghost Walk for a SMU religious studies class about ghosts in general and this week about ghost tourism. Who else ya gonna call? No one. You gonna call me. It was a lot of fun. I was bundled in wool. Channeling 1920 Birmingham fashion sense. For effect.
