The streets of Historic Halifax are paved with the dark and eerie tales
of its colourful and gruesome past. Shadowy secrets and hints of the
unknown are lurking around every corner and in the mist that rolls in
from the Atlantic. Centuries of tragic happenstance have left behind
many restless spirits that are awaiting your discovery: the ghost of an
eighteenth-century French admiral has been spotted marching- to the beat
of his own missing heart- across the harbour and through the streets of
Halifax; the haunting profile of a victim of the Halifax Explosion has
been seen in the window of the city's oldest church; a spectral tall
ship has been sighted plying the waters just off Point Pleasant looking
for a rematch with its War of 1812 opponent.
Halifax Haunts presents the spooky history behind thirty-three of the
city's scariest places. Master storyteller Steve Vernon serves as your
trusted guide and offers phenomenal detail while winding you through the
ghostly and ghastly happenings that still haunt Halifax to this day.
