You Can Get Paid To Tell Spooky Ghost Stories In Multiple Cities Across Ontario

You can be a tour guide to the paranormal. 👻
Contributing Writer

If you are a fan of ghost stories, it might be time to make some extra cash. The Haunted Walk, an Ontario tour company that specializes in the paranormal, is hiring tour guides in cities across the province. So, if you love supplying the spooks these Ontario ghost walks are the perfect place to work. 

According to The Haunted Walk, anyone who is hired to be a tour guide typically works three to five short shifts a week.

The job, although not super seasonal, offers the most work and pay during October.

So, if you’re all booked up for Halloween, you might want to wait until next year.

The job listing calls for a “flair for the dramatic” and bilingualism as significant assets to have when applying for the position.

However, you aren’t technically required to have anything other than a high school diploma.

Perhaps the best part of the job, besides getting to spook folks, is that its application process has been made super simple.

No resumes or cover letters are required! All you have to do is submit a brief online form, and you’re done.

“Tour guides are the heart and soul of the Haunted Walk. They breathe life into the stories and make certain that every one of our customers goes home satisfied (if not a little scared),” a statement from the company reads.

According to the website, the company is currently hiring in cities such as Kingston, Toronto and Ottawa. 

Now, if being a tour guide doesn’t sound appealing to you, but you’re big on Halloween.

You could always check one of the many other places in Ontario currently hiring seasonal work.
