Old Town is where Toronto started, and for its first hundred years the city kept building jails here: four of them, all within 700 metres, each grander than the last. This self-guided ghost walk takes you past every one. You play a new recruit of a small paranormal bureau, and the Questo app hands you its file on Old Town, open since 1960. The dead along the route have their own versions of what happened, and your job is to check them: a tailor hanged in 1798 for a forged dollar note, two rebels executed behind a stockade in 1838, a bishop who nursed the sick through the fever summer of 1847 and died of it at 42. Every stop has a challenge you solve with the real thing in front of you: a carved head on St Lawrence Hall, the blue plaque on Mackenzie House, the gargoyles of Old City Hall. Allow 2 hours for about 3.3 km, from the dog fountain in Berczy Park to the Church of the Holy Trinity. Go whenever you like, day or night, with hints and 24/7 support on hand.
