The Big Book of Canadian Ghost Stories - Paperback

by John Robert Colombo (Author)

Here are Canada's haunted houses, ghosts and poltergeists, weird visions of the past and improbable visions of the future, and assurances that there is life after death. included are more than 175 accounts of such events and experiences told mainly by the witnesses themselves -- Canadians from all walks of life and all parts of the country.

Some of the stories are classics. Others are little known. About one-third of the accounts have never before appeared in print. This fascinating, scary book brings together the most notable stories from the archives of John Robert Columbo, Canada's "Mr. Mystery," who is known for his many paranormal collections, including Ghost Stories of Canada, Haunted Toronto, Ghost Stories of Ontario, and Strange But True. Whatever your views are about the supernatural and the paranormal -- skeptic, believer, middle-of-the-road -- this huge collection of stories filled with thrills and chills will cause you to wonder about the nature of human life and the afterlife.
