LEGENDS OF HORROR RETURNS TO CASA LOMA THIS OCTOBER

Each October, Casa Loma transforms after dark for Legends of Horror, an immersive theatrical experience that takes guests on a journey through the castle’s most haunting spaces.

Move at your own pace through a 2 km experience beginning in the lower gardens and continuing through atmospheric outdoor sets, underground tunnels, hidden chambers and areas of the castle rarely open to the public. Over the course of more than an hour, elaborate theatrical environments, live performers, special effects and larger-than-life characters unfold around you, with each new space revealing the next chapter of the experience.

At the halfway point, step out of the darkness and into the Captain Morgan Bar, where guests can grab a drink, take in the atmosphere and enjoy music from a live DJ before continuing deeper into the experience.

The night culminates with a spectacular 3D projection mapping experience across the exterior of Casa Loma, bringing the castle itself to life in an unforgettable finale.

Part haunted attraction, part immersive theatre, part night out — Legends of Horror is Halloween at Casa Loma like nowhere else.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a guided tour?  No, the tour is self-guided, along a 2 km trail. There are staff throughout to direct you along the way.

What is the minimum age recommended? (For example, can a 7 year old take part, too, with their parents?) Legends of Horror is an all-ages event, however children 16 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Parental discretion is advised. We recommend the Family Hours, 5pm – 6:30pm for younger children as it will be earlier in the evening when less dark and there are no live actors.

Where is the entrance? The entrance to Legends of Horror is through the gate at Davenport and Walmer Rd., directly into the lower gardens.

Where do people park? We encourage guests to park at the George Brown lots given they are closer to the entrance at Davenport and Walmer Rd. These are Pay-and-Display lots, not operated by Casa Loma. There is also limited paid onsite parking at Casa Loma, subject to capacity.

Does the program run even in the event of rain?  It is a rain or shine event, with the exception of severe weather that would put our guests and staff in danger. In the event of a cancellation, ticketholders would be notified by email.

If I purchase tickets online for a set time, how in far advance should I arrive? Guests should plan to arrive on time for allotted time. If they have not pre-purchased their tickets, guests can purchase tickets upon arrival onsite and will be place in line in the order they arrive. Tickets purchased onsite are first come, first served and admission is subject to capacity.

Can I bring water? Or any other form of food? No outside food or beverage will be permitted.  There is a café/bar at the midway point for guests to purchase food and beverage. 

Is there a place to stop for washrooms once in the experience? At the midway point of the experience, there are restrooms for guests.

Are photos and video allowed? While professional photography/videography requires advanced permission/consent (such as media), we encourage guests to take photos to share on social media. Tripods, lighting and other commercial equipment are not permitted unless approved in advance. The use of flash photography is not permitted. 

Is it recommended it for women who are pregnant? Given the amount of walking and limited seating available during the course of the tour, it is not ideal. Guests need to determine if they feel physically able to participate and use their discretion.

Is the program wheelchair/walker accessible? Given the event primarily takes place outdoors and in the tunnels below Casa Loma with multiple sets of stairs, it is not wheelchair/walker accessible.
