No Comments on The Sullivans Destroyer | Ghosts of Buffalo Naval Park

Naval Park – Buffalo, New York, USA

Named for five brothers who lost their lives in the Battle of the Solomon Islands in 1942 when their ship sunk. Overall, the Allies lost about 7,100 men in this campaign before retaking the Islands.

The Destroyer is an excellent example of the largest and most important class of ship used during World War II.

Named after the Sullivan Brothers. Five military brothers who refused to split during the war. They were all killed at the same time during in the same battle. George survived the longest in the waters before drowning.

Due to the boat’s namesakes… many believe George is the resident ghost. Racked with guilt for not being able to save his brothers. Now trapped in the shop which bears their name.

No Comments on Gibraltar Lighthouse Toronto | Ghost of Accident or Murder

Gibraltar Point Lighthouse – Toronto Island, Ontario, Canada

Standing watch over Toronto Harbour is Gibraltar Lighthouse. Oldest remaining on all the Great Lakes, and the second oldest in Canada next to Sambro Island by Halifax.

But standing history isn’t always interesting.

What gets noticed is a horrific legend around a former light-keeper named John Paul Radelmüller. A man just trying to be kind. But kindness led to death.

Was it an accident? Or did drunken rage lead to murder?

Laura Secord Homestead Address – 29 Queenston Street, Queenston Heights, Ontario, Canada – MAP

This was the humble home of a famous Canadian heroine. Her name is skewered in history because today, when we hear Laura Secord, we think only of chocolate.

But how many know the real history? Forced into the violence because of the town she lived in. Leading to a major act of bravery, and one of the reasons why we’re still Canada today.
