Another slightly sleepy episode this week! We discuss the Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital and its hauntings. We also sleepily rage about the murder of Barry and Honey Sherman. There's a slight trigger warning on the second case for discussions about the discovery of the bodies and the cause of death.

Another trigger warning towards the end, where we discuss car accidents....for some reason. Wear your seatbelts, people!

This week, we call out Adobe for losing out entire hour-long episode and making us re-record 🙃

We also discuss the many sightings of the Lake Ontario Serpent, including a pretty genius hoax. And of course, Mary and Shelley get righteously angry about the "Scarborough Crossbow Murders". This is a particularly gruesome murder, so there is a trigger warning for descriptions of violence and gore.

Mary just turned 26! As promised, we're celebrating by telling our personal ghost stories. As it turns out, Mary's house is probably haunted AF and we're wondering if her house ghost(s) judge our super makeshift recording set up.

Also, a special thank you to Mel for sharing her super scary experience with us!

TENTH EPISODE!!!!!!!! WE DID THE THING!

Join us on today's super chill episode that was recorded on Mary's bed at midnight and we're both just about dead tired, whoops. Mary talks about the Falcon Lake UFO sighting while Shelley critiques the source author's purple prose. We also discuss the Order of the Solar Temple and the mass suicides (and homicides) that occurred in Canada and Europe.

Some trigger warnings for the violent death of an infant in the second half of the episode, and general terrible culty shit.

This episode, we talk about a LOT of things...and also the hauntings of the Four Mile House in British Columbia and the tragic killing of Tim McLean. Just a content warning, the latter is a pretty gruesome case and there's talk of mental health and schizophrenia, so listener discretion is advised.

Also shoutout to Mary's house ghost for not making any noise while we were recording.

Another Frankensteined episode, whoops! This week, we discuss the so-called possession and exorcism of Walter Zepeda, and the Butterbox Babies. Shelley drops some truth bombs about Chinese cuisine, and Mary is still sick (for the first half of the episode, anyway).

Also, more tangents! Fun plane stories, this time.

In this episode, we talk about the Young Teazer, which is a ghost ship and not a rapper. We also go through the Salish Sea Feet, the phenomenon where people keep finding feet on the British Columbia and PNW coastline. As a bonus (well, not really, we just really love going on tangents), there's a spoopy story from Shelley's childhood!

PS: so sorry for this Frankenstein (hah, get it?) of an episode, and the noise in the second half. The setup was not ideal 😬

This week, a kinda sick Mary brings you the Ghost Ship of Northumberland Strait, which apparently kind of looks like a bonfire on the ocean. The episode also covers the Belchers Islands massacre, in which one loser thinks he's Jesus and unfortunately gets a whole bunch of people killed, including children.

(Also, the part at the very end is kinda wrong. Whoops, still figuring out distribution!)

In this episode, Canada Obscura covers the ghost story and murder of Mary Gallagher, a ~scandalous tale of jealous sex workers; a (probably) made-up good looking killer; and the best way to describe someone's husband. The episode also discusses the Toronto Baby Hospital Deaths, in which dozens of infants supposedly die from an overdose of heart medication.

The fourth episode of Canada Obscura brings you Project Magnet, a little piece of Canada's history with UFOs. We also get real forensics-y with the tragic abduction and murder of Christine Jessop.

(We had pita and hummus, if anyone's wondering).
