Haunted Houses of Newfoundland and Labrador
Nestled along the rugged coastline of Newfoundland and Labrador are old buildings with histories shrouded in a veil of mystery and intrigue. With their peeling paint and weathered clapboard, these are the province’s historic homes and dwelling places haunted by spectral whispers and eerie apparitions.
With stories passed down through generations, locals and visitors alike are drawn to these enigmatic places, seeking to unravel their secrets and uncover the truth behind the unexplained phenomena that lurk within.
Folklorist and storyteller Dale Jarvis is your guide to these haunting tales which have echoed down through the centuries. If you dare, explore a haunted cabbage patch in Port aux Basques, navigate the dangers of a skull’s curse in downtown St. John’s, and take a ride with a phantom coach driver in Harbour Grace.
In this new collection of stories, Jarvis investigates haunted gates, flying candles, forgotten treasures, and more, providing a rare peek inside some of Newfoundland and Labrador’s most haunted properties. These possessed premises include private dwellings ranging from settlers’ tilts to elaborate merchant homes, lightkeepers’ houses, a haunted hotel, an abandoned mine, and even a modern library bedevilled by persistent urban legends.
If you have always been curious about what strange secrets lurk behind closed doors, this is the book you’ve been waiting for.
