Fort Henry Fort Fright (October 2026)

October 2026

Fort Fright transforms Fort Henry in Kingston, Ontario into a large-scale, immersive Halloween experience each fall. Guests explore the historic fort after dark as it comes alive with movie-style animatronics, dynamic lighting and sound, and dozens of live scare actors hidden throughout its tunnels, corridors, and open spaces. Visitors can choose their level of intensity through options like Dark Nights (using a flashlight to guide you through), Fort Fright Movie Nights, and Scare Shields, while also enjoying interactive elements, themed food and beverages, and unique photo opportunities. Since 2008, Fort Fright has become a signature fall attraction, drawing visitors from across Eastern Ontario and beyond while extending the local tourism season.
