Thanks I appreciate it - yeah Edmonton definitely has more haunted places than one might expect. I didn't know about the Garneau, interesting - I love that theatre in general!
Hi, Highlands Jr High was Haunted. Its off 118 ave. They Filmed Mary Lou Prom Night there when i was a kid. Can see the ghost in the movie and the issues they had while filming. Also, Issac Littlefeathers house is haunted, its off 95st and near 107 ave.
I worked at Highlands for 8 months, I can't believe I forgot about the highlands ghost in my comment, that ghost totally loves the staff room. A friendly spirit though. It just made its presence known, it seemed more curious than anything.
Just came across this and had to say last month (June 2024) the actress Lisa Schrage who plays Mary Lou was at the Calgary Horror Con and has many memories of filming she shared. And still looks beautiful with those eyes !
I can give one story on the Firkins House - I did fire watch on night shift at Fort Edmonton Park when it was being renovated, so I was the only one in the whole park minus one security guard all night. I drove past the house every hour to check on our heaters, and it seemed as though every time you went by the upstairs light would be on and then off. However, I will admit being all alone there at night really causes your mind to play tricks on you.
Hey thanks for watching and I appreciate when people take the time to comment - that's super interesting, it seems to be one of the most potentially haunted buildings in Edmonton. It was fun visiting Fort Edmonton last summer, I volunteered there in youth but I hadn't been in years. Cheers mate, have a great weekend!
A few more to note,"General Hospital" on Jasper Ave and 112ish street. On unit 8Y I saw a full figured male in the dining hall. All in black with a top hat. He caught my eye when I was working an overnight shift. He walked across the room. When I asked him why he was up and walked towards the corner where he was, when I turned the light on, no one was in the corner. Also, in the older part of the building, you can definitely hear the baby crying. Only, there are no babies in that hospital at all. You also get an eerie feeling in the hospital. Alberta Hospital Edmonton, the psychiatric hospital, is also haunted. I worked there as well. I didn't see anything but one night, a patient was seriously scared for me, looking behind me and screaming he is going to get you! He is following you! This was back by the bathrooms. "Don" never slept good in that room he was in. He would always be yelling about something trying to get others. They moved his room and he slept no problem from there on out. Family members also worked there over the years and they too have had experiences with the paranormal out there. The Alberta Legislature is haunted. My sisters and I went on our own ghost tour one day. We decided to go on a paid tour of "The Leg" one day. 2 of us saw a short woman in 1890's era clothing walk into the "dome" area and disappear behind a pillar. There was no where for her to go yet she disappeared. Sadly, when we toured the Hotel MacDonald, as well as when I stayed there, we didn't hear any horses nor did we see the woman. :(
That's wild, thanks so much for sharing! I love hearing people's personal stories involving the reportedly haunted buildings of Edmonton. yeah I haven't mentioned Alberta Hospital in these videos but I've heard it's reportedly haunted as well. Cheers!
Hey thanks for watching and I appreciate when people take the time to comment - interesting, that's a really cool building. What year did you have your experience there? Cheers mate
Thanks for watching - and fair point, I give a pretty general overview. I'd like to cover some haunted locations in more detail, including a possible overnight video at a haunted spot this fall. Cheers mate
Hey thanks for watching and I appreciate when people take the time to leave feedback - oh the Firkins House? I know hey, it's super cool. They actually moved it to the park from Saskatchewan Drive years ago! Cheers mate, have a great weekend!
Hey! I was employed at the UofA for 11 years and have a couple stories from night staff employees, i have stories about the Old Arts, Athabasca hall and Corbett. I now work for the school board in Edmonton and have first hand experiences from Strathcona School, Victoria (not the theater, but have a stoey about the theater from an employee), Highlands (edited because I forgot about it, the nefarious spirits stick out stronger) and have confidently debunked Westmount Felicia haunting. Commenter can AMA, and I dont mind passing on the information to You Strange North if you would like to do a follow up video with stories.
Thanks for sharing your experiences - I always appreciate extra info and there are likely many haunted locations in Edmonton that I'm not even aware of yet. Definitely a couple that heard about on the U of A campus that I didn't include in my Edmonton haunted videos. Cheers mate
