Haunted Old Montreal: Self-Guided Ghost Hunt

Set in Old Montreal, this self-guided exploration game puts you on a paranormal case built around real people and the ghosts they left behind. The file has stayed open since 1964, and closing it is up to you, using your eye for detail, some detective work and a nudge from the Questo app. You'll walk from the sailors' chapel past Place d'Armes to Pointe-à-Callière, covering 13 of the old city's darkest addresses, listening to the dead and checking their accounts against the record. Among the stories: a wealthy man's daughter who chose a cell behind an altar, a woman put on trial for a fire no witness saw her start, and the first body the frost kept pushing back to the surface. At every location you inspect a real object and solve a challenge. Expect roughly 2.3 km on foot, with as many breaks as you like, ideally after nightfall with your phone's flashlight on. If you get stuck, hints and 24/7 support are available. A good pick for Halloween, or any evening you feel like a few chilling ghost stories.
