Ghosts of the Screaming Tunnel – Niagara Falls

Located just off Warner Rd., the Screaming Tunnel runs under the railway that links up Niagara Falls with Toronto and on to New York City.  The tunnel isn’t small, with a height of sixteen feet and a length of one hundred and twenty-five feet. 

According to local lore/legend, about a century back, a farm located just south of the entrance was set on fire.  The legend has a young girl screaming from the farm house, her nightgown ablaze, ending up dead in the tunnel. 

There are different versions of the story which include irate family murders and rapes. The tunnel still sends out a scream that many call the scream of the little girl.
