Ghost Boat Season of the Witch Wisconsin Dells, WI

Contact Ghost Boat Season of the Witch

Wisconsin Dells legends tell of ancient canyons buried deep in the rocky banks of the Wisconsin river, where dark things haunt the passageways and shadows move in the moonlight. What lurks inside? Take an eerie, after-dark journey up-river by boat and into the shadow-haunted passages on foot, and find out. The Ghost Boat is Wisconsin Dells’ scariest and most intense attraction, offering two chilling adventures: JOURNEY INTO HAUNTED CANYON (summer season) and SEASON OF THE WITCH (weekends in September and October). Climb aboard for an experience you’ll never forget . . . assuming you come back. Season Of The Witch: There are those who believe the wilderness just beyond the borders of Wisconsin Dells is home to an ancient, evil entity, a malevolent monster whose power waxes in the dying days of Autumn. This is the Witch of Wisconsin Dells, and those who dare can join in a fright-filled Halloween season journey to its haunted lair. You’ll embark at dusk on a boat filled with fellow explorers (and a few uninvited ghastly guests), hearing legends and folklore of the Dells as you ride upriver. Then comes a walk through a forest haunted by all manner of ghost and ghoul, vampire and werewolf, leading you straight to the dark heart of the witch’s canyon crypt! A Halloween adventure that will haunt your nightmares!

Ghost Boat: Journey into Haunted Canyon

Downtown Wisconsin Dells across from the Trojan Horse

608-254-8555

Website Email Favorites

Recommended For Tweens - Ages 10 and older

Not recommended for ages 9 and under.

An adventure filled with legend, mystery and horror! As dusk falls on the river, climb aboard the boat that will ply the black waters enroute to the haunted canyon. During this creepy moonlit cruise, you’ll hear the legend of Whiskey Jack and the old mining settlement that gave the canyon its ghoulish reputation. Then it’s time to see if the ghostly tale is true, as your boat docks in an ancient grotto and you continue the quest on-foot, through primeval forest and into the dark, winding recesses of the canyon! Discover the source of the terrifying stories, from the not-so-abandoned ruins of the mining town to the ultimate fate of Whiskey Jack. But beware! Some secrets don‘t like to be revealed, and if you’re not careful, you may find yourself a part of the haunted canyon story . . . permanently.

Ghost Trolley Tour in Wisconsin Dells

The haunted trolley Experience will take you to the darker side of the Dells. We believe the truth can often times be more frightening than fiction.

Prepare to learn about the hidden side of the Dells and the surprising haunted history they try to cover up! We visit a very haunted cemetery, discuss multiple haunted locations and tell you the frightening details.

There are stops where we get off of the trolley, if you dare, not required of course. .  We will look for orbs (watch out for the red orbs.) We will use our ghost meters in the search for spiritual energy.

Fancy marketing have kept the death and tragedy hidden in the Dells, until now. We are going to tell and show you what they don’t want you to know. Some of these stories may keep you up at night. Join us on the Haunted Dells Trolley tour for a VERY unique experience and become a believer!

Brat House Bar & Grille ( an old church, turned restaurant) where we will hear the story of the little girl that haunts the restroom and the old Union soldier that has been seen many times inside

Outside of Ghost Molly’s showboat saloon.  She passed away mysteriously in the apartment above the bar!  Come find out all of the details and why!

Spring Grove cemetery where we will get out and visit the grave site of the confederate spy, Belle Boyd

The tour typically lasts 90 minutes but can go longer with strong activity.  Great times and shenanigans!  Book now, limited tickets will be available.
