Dovercourt Crypt

Dovercourt Crypt Come by for spooky festivities and a good scare this Halloween season! We look forward to showing you a spooktacular time!

Dovercourt Crypt is a Halloween Haunt located in Lynn Valley, North Vancouver, run by a couple of Halloween enthusiasts and their living dead-icated team of actors and volunteers. We welcome all who are brave enough to enter, but parental discretion is advised as our Haunt does contain graphic content. While the Crypt is free to attend, donations are encouraged and accepted with all proceeds benefitting the BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund.

OH MY GOBLINS, what a weekend! Our Full Haunt Experience nights were a screaming success- big thank you to everyone who braved the rain to brave the Crypt! And a huge shoutout to the DNV Firefighters for dropping by and giving our smaller visitors a close-up look at their firetruck — you made a lot of nights extra special. 🚒👻

Tonight, our Hauntling Nights return once more! Join us at the corner of Dovercourt Road and Maginnis Avenue from 4:30–8:30 pm for a scare-free walk-through of the haunt, and enjoy some tasty popcorn while you’re here. 🍿💀

Entrance is by donation (suggested min. $10/adult, $5/child), and our Crypt Concession will also be open ($2 for popcorn, $1 for water), with all proceeds benefitting the BC Professional Fire Fighters Burn Fund.

We now accept both cash and tap donations, so it’s easier than ever to give to a frightfully good cause - see you soon, junior spookies! 🎃

🕸️ The fur has been brushed, the claws have been sharpened, and our dreadful denizens are ready to deliver their A game (and their AHH! game) tonight for the first FULL HAUNT EXPERIENCE of the Halloween season!

Gather your bravest companions and creep on down to the Crypt at the corner of Dovercourt Road and Maginnis Avenue — the frights will be in full swing from now until 9:30 pm.

Admission is by donation (suggested min. Is $10 per adult, $5 per child) with proceeds benefitting the BC Professional Fire Fighters Burn Fund. We’re always thrilled to take cash, but our monsters have gone modern — tap donations by card or phone are now accepted through the Crypt Square Reader! 👻

And don’t worry about the weather — we’ve got plenty of tents to keep you dry while you wait for your turn to enter the Crypt.. if you dare. ☔💀

🎃 The night has arrived, my junior spookies — it’s our very first Hauntling Night of the season! 👻

From now until 8:30 pm this evening, the Crypt will be open for “scare-free” walk-throughs — perfect for families with young ghouls or anyone who prefers the oohs without the AHHs!

What does scare-free mean? No actors lurking in the shadows, no jump scares waiting around corners, and even the dreaded claustrophobia tunnel has been deflated for the night. The house lights will be brighter, and the only chills will be from excitement!

We’ll also be handing out Junior Fire Fighter stickers, pencils and hats, courtesy of the amazing folks at the BC Professional Fire Fighters Burn Fund. 🔥🚒

Admission is by donation- $5 per child and $10 per adult is suggested- and we accept donations by cash or tap at the door. Every bit goes toward supporting the Burn Fund’s great work!

Come wander through a gentler version of the haunt- all the atmosphere, none of the screams.. and support a fantastic cause. See you soon, my spookies! 🕯️💀

This evening, the Crypt will finally be be unlocking its gates once again for our Soft Opening Night! 🏚️🎃

For those wondering what exactly a “soft opening” means—here are all the gory details: tonight and tomorrow, the Crypt will be alive with actors and scares, though there may not yet be every eerie feature of the Full Haunt experience coming next weekend. Think of it as a chance for our creatures to stretch their legs, sharpen their screams, and shake off any cobwebs—it’s been a while since they’ve had visitors, after all!

Walkthroughs will begin somewhere between 6:30-7:00 pm, and yes, our Bravery Bracelets will be available as always (the Crypt Concession, however, will have to wait for later in the week).

As always, entrance to the Crypt is by donation (benefitting the BC Professional Fire Fighters Burn Fund!) with a suggested donation of $5 per child and $10 per adult. We’ll be accepting cash or card donations this year, so no need to dig through your coffin for loose change. 💀

For those of you concerned about the rain: the Haunt is currently COMPLETELY within an enclosed structure, so no need to worry — we also have plenty of tents to keep you dry while you wait!

So gather your bravest friends, descend into the shadows, and help support a great cause—
we promise it’ll be a frightfully good time. 🎃
