Since 2004 Ghost Tours of Vernon has led over 10,000 eager participants through the macabre and paranormal history of Vernon, on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Syilx Okanagan Nation. For 20 years tours were led by the incomparable Mr. Gabriel David Sumegi Newman the 2nd.
Mr. Newman began telling spooky stories when he worked with the St. John’s Haunted Hike. The simplicity of storytelling combined with the excitement of theatre was a natural fit so when Mr. Newman moved to Vernon he created a tour of his own. After three years of research and interviews Ghost Tours of Vernon was born.
Seasoned professional actors, Mr. Harrison Robert Kelly Coe III and Lady Amelia Antonia Serafina Sirianni delighted at the opportunity to take over the charge of recounting the spine tingling histories unearthed by Mr. Newman and adding to their ghost story catalogue with new and eerie tales.
Now in its 23rd season, Ghost Tours of Vernon continues the spine-chilling tradition of scaring tourists and residents alike with local lore on the hauntings and supernatural stories surrounding the community.
