Ouija Attack on James Street in Hamilton | Personal Experience

From skeptic to believer, this is my journey into the paranormal.  Leading to an extreme experience in the old HH Mystical Shop. Within the historic Stone Terrace on James Street in Hamilton.

Centered around a stern resident ghost named Elizabeth. And a late-night Ouija session which spiraled out of control.

The experience serves as a profound lesson in “spiritual manipulation”. Where external entities can trigger feelings of deep anxiety in the living.

Mary Rutherford | Separating the Witch from True History

Nestled in a remote corner of Ontario, in the long grass of the West Bentinck Cemetery, lies a mystery.  It is a place that feels like the “middle of nowhere”.  But for those familiar with the history, the names Lamlash and Rutherford feel like a forgotten piece of Scotland transport into Canada.

For years, one grave has stood apart from the rest.  Literally, perched lonely on a hill.

It belongs to Isabella Rutherford, but to the locals, she is known by a legendary name … Mary Rutherford, the Witch of West Grey.

The Watcher | Niagara-on-the-Lake Town Ghost

The Watcher is a fascinating and eerie local legend in Canada’s Most Haunted Town, Niagara-on-the-Lake.  A picturesque place known for historic charm and folklore.

But this legend is different.  Talks about a mysterious blue orb.  Seen over the generations and only at night.  Often through the streets, but most notably around the current Post Office across from the Grocery Store.

This orb is said to flicker and drift through the air, catching the attention of very few witnesses.  Maybe it wants to stay hidden.

Fort Mississauga is Historically Haunted | Niagara-on-the-Lake

Fort Mississauga is a British fort in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, Canada.  A community with a rich and complex history dating back to the original Loyalists of the late 1700s.

While Fort Mississauga itself has not seen any battle.  They built it just after the War of 1812.  The land, like much in Niagara-on-the-Lake, was a battlefield.
