Haunted, Charming, and Fun! The Red Coach Inn, Ghost Stories, and The Office

If you’re visiting Niagara Falls and looking for a place that combines eerie ghost stories with a dash of TV fame, look no further than the Red Coach Inn. Just steps from the roaring Falls, in our office at the Comfort Inn across the way, this charming Tudor-style inn has been welcoming guests since 1923—but some of those guests might never have left.

Locals and visitors alike have long whispered that the Red Coach Inn is haunted. Strange noises echo through empty hallways. Lights flicker with no explanation. And some guests have reported seeing phantom figures—including a ghostly bride said to wander the halls after a tragic honeymoon. Whether you’re a true believer or just love a good story, there’s something about the Inn’s creaky charm that invites curiosity.

But haunting tales aren’t the only reason the Red Coach is famous.

In the classic comedy series The Office, the Red Coach Inn made a cameo of sorts in one of the most beloved episodes of all time: Jim and Pam’s wedding. That’s right—Season 6, Episode 4, Niagara. While most of the wedding scenes were filmed on a set, the Red Coach Inn is name-dropped and featured as part of the fictional wedding weekend. Fans of the show have made it a must-stop pilgrimage spot, snapping photos in front of the iconic sign and recreating moments from the episode.

So whether you’re chasing ghosts or Dunder Mifflin memories, the Red Coach Inn delivers a little something for everyone—a cozy fire, a fancy dinner, and maybe, just maybe, a chill down your spine.
