Looking for Haunted Houses near you? This map has the best Halloween Displays!
/The Halloween Map of Ottawa and Surrounding Areas has returned for 2023!
Explore 613’s Maps are growing every year. I had someone tell me about my map while talking to them about Halloween (they didn’t know I was the creator), I had people stop by last Halloween and told me they found my house on the map… Houses that were fundraising let me know that the map helped them raise more money than ever before. So, of COURSE #Halloween613 Map is back for all of Ottawa (& Beyond!) for the FOURTH year in a row!
Explore613 is taking submissions until Halloween (Tuesday October 31st!) at noon - at which we will no longer be adding submissions (you can still email us for REMOVAL at ANY TIME!)
YES - we are taking houses from the ENTIRE 613. Ottawa, Ottawa Valley, St Lawrence, Kingston, Rockland, Rideau Lakes - if you live near the 613 area codes we will take your submission. (we also take addresses from across the river - we love you Gatineau & Aylmer!)
If you need to amend or remove your house (especially if someone else submitted your house!) - email me ASAP wicked@explore613.ca
Each listing is clickable and may have extra details: photos, end date, running times, donation links, radio stations etc
Each category can be toggled on and off - only want to see decorated homes and no events? Click on the “Decorated Homes” category at the top of the map, and it will only show you the Haunted Yards and nothing else.
If you tour the map, snap some pics, tag us @explore.613 on instagram & use our hashtag #Halloween613 and we may feature your photo!
We are also live on TikTok too: @explore613
