About this event
Toronto's grandest Halloween event is back for its 10th anniversary year: Legends of Horror transforms Casa Loma — the city's famous hilltop castle — into a 2 km immersive haunted walking trail through its gardens, tunnels and stables, running nightly until October 31, 2026. With more than 70 live actors waiting in the dark, it is widely considered the scariest Halloween attraction in Toronto — and one of the best premium nights out of the fall season.
Legends of Horror is a theatrical, actor-driven haunted experience staged across the Casa Loma estate: you walk the route at your own pace through fog-filled gardens, underground tunnels and the castle stables while costumed performers bring each horror scene to life around you. It runs rain or shine.
What to expect
On Friday, Saturday and Sunday early evenings, Legends of Horror runs Family Hours with NO live actors — younger visitors (and the faint of heart) can walk the trail and enjoy the sets and atmosphere without the scares.
Worth knowing before you go
- The trail includes stairs, tunnels and uneven ground and is not wheelchair accessible — please plan accordingly.
- It runs rain or shine — dress for an outdoor October night in Toronto.
- Paid parking in midtown Toronto fills quickly on event nights; the TTC (Dupont station, Line 1) is a short walk to Casa Loma.
- Make a night of it: Casa Loma sits above some of Toronto's best dining neighbourhoods, and downtown is just a short drive or subway ride away.
