In this episode of Down the Crooked Path, Amanda Joy explores the lingering shadows hidden within one of Canada’s oldest historic districts, where centuries of history have left more than stories behind.

With more than 500 documented hauntings tied to the area, this episode focuses on three locations where tragedy, mystery, and memory appear to overlap. From a historic mansion said to be watched over by restless spirits, to a former religious site marked by loss and secrets beneath its foundations, to an institution connected to some of the most disturbing psychological experiments of the twentieth century, each place carries a past that refuses to stay quiet.

Blending documented history with enduring folklore, Amanda examines how trauma, belief, and place intertwine and why some locations continue to draw reports long after their doors have closed.

Step carefully. Some histories do not remain in the past.

This foundation supports urgent needs like housing, food security, legal defense, and cultural revitalization—all grounded in the principle that land back also means resource back.
