Beyond Gastown's famous streets, where Vancouver's unique history and culture are preserved, untold secrets are waiting to be uncovered.
About this Event

🕯️ Long ago, when Gastown’s cobblestones were first laid, a bell was cast in secret. It was said to toll fifteen times, summoning spirits bound to the brick and fog. The bell was hidden after a great fire, but every Halloween, whispers say it stirs again - echoing through stations, statues, taverns, and towers.

Tonight, you walk not just through Gastown’s streets… but through its shadows. Each haunted challenge you solve brings you closer to breaking the curse - to finding the bell and silencing it before it tolls its thirteenth strike at midnight.

Fail, and the spirits of Gastown will wander free for another year…

Succeed, and you will bind the shadows back into the bricks where they belong.
