Ghost Walks
Feature Locations: Custom House (Hamilton, Ontario, Canada) – –
It’s time… Halloween-time! Kicking off the Halloween season with a special segment. The roots of Halloween, in ghosts and superstition. From its Celtic beginnings in Ireland to popular and fun beliefs in the United States of America.
Then, Daniel relives the horror of having his cape tugged during a Custom House Ghost Walk. Freaking out in-front of a group, and blaming a guest for doing it!
Feature Locations: Daniel’s Mind (Hamilton, Ontario, Canada) – –
Daniel’s origin story. With a rant about pushing natural talent. Failure of the schools? Connecting it with his own experience growing up with a love for writing and storytelling. How this led to an obsession for adult horror books, and Stephen King.
Perfectly leads into a review of the 2-part movie, Stephen King’s IT. Read at a young age, this story is close to Daniel’s heart. Why he watched the movie closely. From perfection to not-so-much. What happened?
Feature Locations: Mississauga (Ontario, Canada) – –
Viral ghost photo from Mississauga. A city beside Toronto, not known for its ghosts. Then, one afternoon, a Kayaker takes a photo along the shoreline of the Credit River. Now Daniel has to reexamine his beliefs on the modern city. Featuring a Streetsville ghost story.
Then, Daniel goes deep again. How everyone’s fear of death creates a line of argument for non-believers. How fearing death connects to cemeteries and ghosts. And, it’s possible to not fear death and still believe in ghosts!
Feature Locations: Dundas (Hamilton, Ontario, Canada) & Toronto – –
Toronto centric episode! Starting with the city’s most popular mayor, and one of Canada’s biggest villains, William Lyon Mackenzie. Leader of the 1837 failed Rebellion. Toronto’s first mayor. But before all that, he lived in Dundas… a rebel’s town. Rumoured to have hidden in a cave on Sydenham Hill.
Then, Daniel jumps over to his former house in Toronto. Now considered one of the most haunted places in Canada. One of many stories, from the time of a caretaker named Mr. Charles Edmunds. That time when they heard the piano playing… from the palour, in the middle of the night.
Main Subject: Ancaster (Hamilton, Ontario, Canada) – –
A sensitive sent in a detailed email of impressions from Ancaster’s Hermitage Ruins. Daniel goes over each one, attempting to connect it to history and ghost stories. Finally, a description of the infamous William Black. Also, knowing the tour groups aren’t hated.
Then, Daniel opens up about a personal experience with a psychic from Toronto, named Jim Hunt. The time this man blew his belief right open with a simple question, “Do you know Lily?”
Her connection to his past. And the possible spirit of the twin he always wanted.
Main Subject: Hamilton (Ontario, Canada) – –
Another spiritual segment! This time Daniel shares one of the most powerful techniques a person can have. Useful in ghost investigation to tune your ability to read the space. Feeling deeply if ghostly energy enters a room. Maybe even reading the ghost’s emotion.
Then he returns to the subject of Canada’s most famous disappearance, Ambrose Small. Was his skeleton found in Hamilton? Yes… if you believe the story from the old Tivoli Theatre in the 90’s.
Main Subject: Hamilton & Toronto (Ontario, Canada) – –
Daniel is shocked to have his own experience added upon. New facts which round off a ghost he never really knew, who was haunting the house he used to live in. The random female voice has a name… Mary. Along with her jealous husband!
Then, let’s talk Canadian government. The one in Toronto, representing the Province of Ontario. Queen’s Park. With a story experienced during a secret Halloween Ghost Walk in the building. A fact which almost started a political rant (but Daniel’s a beacon of restraint!) All around a great man in our country’s history, a former Sergeant-at-Arms, and hero in WW1.
Main Subject: Hamilton, Ontario, Canada – –
All Hamilton episode! A rare Daniel rant. After a unique experience in Downtown Hamilton during the last Ghost Walk. Seeing how much worse it was in that moment. A reminder of his time at the old HPH building.
Then, featuring a grand old landmark, and its well-known ghost. The Lady in White of the Royal Connaught. Who she is? And a story. Over-the-top… maybe. But from a first-person experience, giving enough credit to be featured on the tour for years.
Main Subject: Hamilton, Ontario, Canada – –
We’ve made it everyone! The Top 2 Most Haunted Locations in the spooky city of Hamilton. Including a rare, active battlefield and the beautiful, haunted structure on at the harbour.
Next, featuring the dreaded divination tool, the Ouija Board. Most avoid it, but not Daniel. He respects the board as a tool. But where does that regard come from? The story of his first time with the board. A strong spirit cutting in. A simple sentence changed his beliefs forever.
Main Subject: Hamilton, Ontario, Canada – –
A friend’s email makes Daniel question reality. Did he do a voice-over for the Dave Chappelle show? Listen to the clip and tell us what you think.
Then, we’re getting close to the top. This week it’s #5 through #3 of the most haunted places to visit in the city of Hamilton. Featuring the ghostly woods of Ancaster. The old theatre which might have been #1… if it still existed. Also, the last piece of Hamilton’s “Asylum for the Insane”.
