Haunted Canada: Ghost stories and the unexplained

Deep in British Columbia's Cariboo region sits a museum built from the logs of a horrible crime  where over 60 people were killed, their gold stolen, their bodies buried.   More than 150 years later, the money is still missing and the dead refuse to leave. 

In this episode of Haunted Canada, Nadine Bailey speaks with Dave Scott, host of Spaced Out Radio and founder of Haunted 108 Ghost Tours, about the dark history of the Cariboo Gold Rush, the infamous Agnes MacVee who allegedly murdered over 60 people and vanished without a trace, and the extraordinary paranormal activity documented across 13 historic buildings.Guest info:

Since the dawn of time, humanity has been at war.  Conflict in one form or another has been part of our existence since we first walked the earth.  

In this first episode of a four-part series, join military historian David Borys as we travel back in time to Iran, where we chart how a modern monarchy, which was armed, wealthy, and globally backed, lost control. On our journey, we'll be helped by historian Roham Alvandi from the London School of Economics and Political Science.

While conflict and armed rebellion have evolved to look very differently over the centuries, if you want to understand the world today, you need to go back because history doesn't just repeat itself; it echoes.

Episode description:

Joshua Bates was a wealthy merchant who arrived in Smiths Falls, Ontario with big dreams in 1861. He had built mills along the Rideau Canal, courted the railway, and then constructed a beautiful home  where he could greet the world from any direction. Sadly, he only lived in it for six months and when he died, his rival moved in. Then, Joshua Bates was erased from his own story so completely that the poem the Forgotten Man. was written about him.

The outside world may have moved on but the house never did.

In this episode of Haunted Canada, host Nadine Bailey sits down with Leisa Bell, curator of the Smiths Falls Heritage House Museum, to explore one of Ontario's most quietly unsettling historic homes.Whether you're a history lover, a paranormal enthusiast, or just someone who likes a good ghost story told honestly — this one is for you
