Niagara Falls Ghosts in the Screaming Tunnel

I thought I’d bring up a not so well known Haunted location today and cover the screaming tunnel at Niagara Falls. The Screaming Tunnel is an abandoned Grand Trunk railway structure located in the Northwest section of Niagara Falls at the end of an empty road only accessible off  Queen Elizabeth Highway. The tunnel was constructed by Grand Trunk with hopes of making a railway line from Niagara Falls to New York City but then world war 1 broke out and Grand Trunk had a lot of financial problems so the railway was never finished.

This tunnel is haunted by the ghosts of two small girls. The first was named Sarah. Her family was nearby farmers and one night their farmhouse caught fire. Sarah ran from the home but her clothes caught fire and she burned to death at the center of the tunnel. The other girl named Jean who was 8 years old when she died was taken to the tunnel by her father who raped his own child then burned her alive to cover up all traces of his crime.

If you’ve watched The Dead Zone by Christopher Walken and remember him going into a tunnel for refuge then you’ve seen the Screaming tunnel before.

If you do visit the Screaming Tunnel of Niagara Falls to look for ghosts I do ask that you be respectful and do not try to anger the ghosts to get them to reveal themselves.
