Description
Spooky seaside stories of Canada’s Atlantic coast from the longtime host of the television series Maritime Mysteries. Maritime Mysteries chronicles the restless spirits, ghostly apparitions, eerie poltergeists, and haunted houses of Canada’s Maritime provinces—Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island. This area of the Atlantic coast has an extensive tradition of tales of the supernatural, handed down over generations. In this new edition of the classic book, Bill Jessome, author of Stories That Haunt Us, brings together over eighty of the region’s most spine-tingling tales—both old and new—that put a chilling spin on the rich history of these jagged seacoasts. Includes illustrations
