Full Description
A new, expanded edition detailing Niagara-on-the-Lake's ghostly inhabitants.
Long-dead British soldiers, grieving lovers, lingering spirits — Niagara-on-the-Lake's long and colourful history is kept alive by ghosts of its past.
Through historical investigation and eyewitness accounts, Andrew Hind and Maria Da Silva share over two dozen ghostly tales: a murdered British officer haunts the Olde Angel Inn, a ghostly widow retaliates against couples, a condemned ghost at the old courthouse pleads his innocence, and ghostly guests at the Prince of Wales Hotel have no desire to check out. Some have called Niagara on-the-Lake Canada's most haunted town, and with so much of its built heritage preserved, the community clearly makes the perfect haunt for age-old spirits.
