Some places are magical, charming and idyllic, while others seem to be damned by the horrors that have taken place there and branded it for eternity. We don’t call those places magical – we call them haunted. One such place is the Donnelly farm near London, Ontario. That family of rebel rousers was massacred on their own property by townsfolk who were fed up with their shenanigans. Even today people say that some night the Roman line is haunted by strange cavaliers. During the Gold Rush there were a lot of rumors of lost mines, fierce battle between friends for quick fortune and even murders. The legend of the lost Creek Mine is one of those dramatic stories. But that was nothing, compared to the tale of Albert Ostman, who was literally kidnapped and held hostage by a family of Sasquatches for more than a week.

Picture a medium at a séance saying, “Spirit, are you there?” followed by the sound of light tapping on the table in response. Sounds pretty cliché, right? Or perhaps even laughable to some.

G. Hamilton. Skeptics are always saying that they want physical proof before they will believe that something is real.

The Exorcist is without a doubt the most well-known horror movie of its genre. Its heroine, a child possessed by the Devil, frightened throngs of moviegoers, giving the impression that it could happen to any child. And that’s exactly what this episode is all about! We present footage of truly bizarre behavior exhibited by a 6-year-old boy in Acton Vale, Quebec and one of the most compelling of poltergeist stories in Canadian history, the one of the Dagg family.

Can Satan physically possess a human form? No one can say for sure, since no one really knows whether or not he exists. What we do know is that there are people in this world who believe in him, and believe that he could someday take over the world. They commit heinous crimes in his name. A few of these satanic crimes are presented in this disturbing episode,for mature audiences only, although children do appear in the episode. A 7-year-old child was the victim of one of the worst crimes imaginable… committed by two other children. The case is quite real, viciously authentic, and hard to swallow. Would you let these bloodthirsty warlocks into your home? Some people believe that Jack the Ripper was a member of the royal family. A writer recently claimed to have solved the mystery, saying that Jack was, in fact, an insane artist. And now a new suspect has come to light: a doctor by the name of Thomas Neil Cream. He was Canadian… We shouldn’t be surprised to learn that Canada has its own bunch of nut cases, including Albert Johnson, a trapper on the Rat River. We know their names but do we really know where they are?
