About this episode

This episode explores the haunted history of Kingston, Ontario, known for its many ghostly locations.

It's not surprising that Kingston is considered one of Canada's more haunted cities because it is known as the "Limestone City." Limestone has a way of absorbing energy, good and bad. What started as a French trading post has grown into one of the largest cities in Ontario. There are many haunted locations here from asylums for the criminally insane to jails to cemeteries. Join us for the history and hauntings of Kingston, Ontario, Canada. This Month in History features the Carranza Monument.
