Ghost Train at Stanley Park – Jack O’ Lantern’s journey through the Dark Forest {Giveaway!}

Poor Jack! He may be dead as a doornail but instead of resting in peace, he wanders trapped in an ancient Celtic Halloween world where nothing is what it seems. Join Jack on his journey as his lantern casts a light on floating druids, a 12-foot monster, and creatures barely human.

Pumpkin Patch – Can’t ever have too many jack-o-lanterns. Visit the pumpkin patch where $5 buys you a pumpkin to take home.

Food Bank Donations – When you visit Ghost Train, please give generously to their partner charity, the Greater Vancouver Food Bank Society. Bring your non-perishable food items for the food bank.

Food Vendors – Get fuelled for your Ghost Train experience! Insomniac’s Coffee will be serving up their specialty coffees for moms and dads. The Kobachi Kart helps you warm up with a hot bowl of noodles or try chicken karaage or takoyaki with their Asian pub grub cart. You’ll be thrilled not chilled! The Jack O’s Café and Canteen will be spinning candy floss for the kids and serving up their popular churros and hot chocolate. If you’re in the mood for something more filling, a short walk down to the café for their burgers, hot dogs, and fries will do the trick! No train ride is complete without a bag of delicious organic popcorn from the Cob House by Stanley Park Ecology Society. Food vendors will be open for both matinee and evening show times.

Little Monster’s Matinee – The perfect daytime experience, light on the fright, for families, school groups and others with children. Matinee rides have no spooky actors or live performances, only static displays. All the TREATS, without the TRICKS!

Get More BOO for your Buck – when you bring a friend to the Stanley Park Ghost Train on Monday October 15 or 22, or on Tuesday October 16 or 23. Purchase one ticket online and get a second ticket of equal or lesser value for free. It’s a scream of a deal! No promo code needed, simply purchase a ticket for a time slot between 5:30pm to 9:30pm on October 15, 16, 22 or 23, and show it to train staff onsite. A second train ride of equal or lesser value will be provided, free of charge.

Tickets are now on sale through TicketLeader. From 3:00pm onwards each day, you can purchase tickets at the ticket booth in the Stanley Park Train Plaza. You can buy same-day tickets only.  At least half of the tickets for each night are reserved for on-site purchase, so even if Ticketmaster is sold out for that day, there will still be tickets for sale on-site. However, since this event is so popular, tickets for the day can sell out quickly.

Your ticket is valid for one Ghost Train ride and other attractions in the plaza. Train tickets are sold in half-hour time slots. Several trains will depart within each time slot. Avoid the crowds and come out Monday to Thursday in the first two weeks.
