Canada's acclaimed ghost hunter and author of the best-selling Ghosts of Nova Scotia has pulled together a new volume of nearly seventy eerie supernatural mysteries from across Canada. All of them occurred at sea, on rivers or lakes or along the shorelines. From the Atlantic Coast, to the Pacific Coast, up to the Arctic and on the Great Lakes, Walsh writes about ghost ships, buried treasure, haunted lighthouses, sea and lake monsters, and lost expeditions.
Hear how the Octavius sailed through the Northwest Passage for thirteen years with a crew of skeletons. Learn how ghosts and giants lured unsuspecting sailors to their doom off lonely islands. Read about how a murdered lighthouse keeper still searches for his murderers a hundred years after his death. Walsh also tells the tale of the lost valley of tropical treasure and mystery in the Arctic, the appearance of giant pre-historic sharks and serpentine lake creatures, as well as the war-like race of giants on Baffin Island whose screams terrified even the Vikings.
Dubbed by the Ottawa Citizen as "Canada's Ghost Hunter," Darryll Walsh is a lecturer in parapsychology at the Nova Scotia Community College and head of the Centre for Parapsychological Studies in Canada. Also available by Darryll Walsh: Ghosts of Nova Scotia and Legends and Monsters of Atlantic Canada. Darryll Walsh's work is soon to be the basis for a CTV series, Ghost Hunter.
