8th Annual Haunted History Trolley Tour

The 8th straight year running, HHTT returns for lots of gruesome, ghoulish fun this October

On a dark and eerie evening, you leisurely board your trolley to tour one of the oldest cities in Minnesota. But this tour goes downhill quickly when uninvited characters begin boarding. Traveling to areas of Stillwater's haunted past, ghosts wander onto the trolley bringing these stories to life - creepy characters telling their own true horror stories of Stillwater long ago!!!

Come early and stay late-
There is a VIP lounge upstairs at the River Siren Brewery for trolley guests to enjoy the festivities!
While you are waiting for your theatrical trolley tour you can enjoy old black & white horror movies, have a complimentary beer, seltzer, or soda, go on the scavenger hunt for prizes, or step outside to roast a marshmallow over the bonfire! (all included with ticket purchase)
