The Baldoon Mystery: Canada’s Strangest Haunting


Listen Later

This week, we’re heading straight into one of Canada’s strangest, smokiest, most stubborn hauntings — the Baldoon Mystery. A family farm under siege. Fires that sparked out of nowhere. Bullets that bent in mid‑air. A suspected witch who absolutely did not appreciate being accused of anything. And a curse that refused to mind its business.

We’re unpacking the folklore, the eyewitness chaos, the generational drama, and the one bizarre solution that supposedly ended it all. If you love a haunting with attitude, this one’s for you.

In this episode:

  • The McDonald family and the haunting that wouldn’t quit
  • Fires, stones, apparitions, and the infamous “walking bullet”
  • The neighbourly feud that escalated into full‑blown witchcraft accusations
  • The folklore roots behind the curse
  • The strange ritual that allegedly broke it
  • And of course… the messy, human, very dramatic underbelly of it all
