Lake Winnipeg, a prairie ocean hidden in the heartland, holds untold stories of triumph and tragedy. Here at the Marine Museum of Manitoba, the spirits of the past are eager to be heard, waiting for you to uncover their tales. From the late 1800s to the 1960s, this land, the water, and the ships themselves were witness to a vibrant seafaring era. At the Marine Museum, the spirits of the past still walk the halls and stand upon the bows of these now landlocked ships.
For countless years, both staff and visitors aboard the historic ships at the Marine Museum have encountered inexplicable phenomena. Imagine shadowy figures flitting through dimly lit corridors, haunting melodies echoing from unseen sources, misplaced artifacts that seem to shift on their own, and—most chillingly—wet footprints appearing mysteriously.
These eerie occurrences have left an indelible mark on those who’ve crossed the museum’s threshold. Strangers swap stories, their accounts eerily corroborating one another. Clairvoyants, too, have stepped aboard, receiving cryptic messages from the past—whispers carried on unseen currents.
Through research and interviews with eyewitnesses, we’ve woven together a captivating one-and-a-half-hour dramatic script. We invite you to join us on the Haunted Harbour Ghost Tour—a night at the Marine Museum like no other. Brace yourself for ghostly tales, hidden histories, and an experience that will linger long after the last echo fades.
