Imagine a country where the trees seem to whisper eerie melodies, where abandoned buildings weep with ghostly grief, and where the eerie silence is broken only by the creaking of old wooden doors. For those who dare to uncover the darker side of this vast and diverse nation, Haunting Canada is their guide to the creepiest locations across the country, where the boundaries between this world and the next have blurred.
Jeanne Mance Historical House
Abondoned Asylum
Tucked away in the quaint town of Moncton, New Brunswick, the Jeanne Mance Historical House sounds like a place of history and intrigue, but as you step inside, its walls whisper a haunting energy. Once an abandoned asylum, this once-haven for the mentally ill hosts numerous paranormal reports, mostly attributed to the countless forgotten souls who were once laid to rest on its site. Visitors have reported peculiar occurrences, including unexplained noises, doors slamming by themselves, and ghostly apparitions, making the Jeanne Mance Historic House a hotbed for thrill-seekers interested in the darker side.
Despite its abandoned state and the whispers of paranormal chaos, the house still embodies the spirit of its initial purpose – as a hospice for those in urgent need of medical care – where countless patients and former patients alike shared their time on this hallowed premise. Today, visitors might stumble upon abandoned medical charts, dusty furniture, disarrayed files, still maintaining the once-tantalizing allure that drew this asylum to fame.
And then there are the peculiar legends and folklore surrounding both the asylum’s history: The tale of a head nurse who drowned in nearby Lake Beauséjour while searching for a cat that had strayed inside; The tragic story about the young woman who wandered into the forest and subsequently lost her mind, claiming the house and its many inhabitants as her own spiritual domain.
Zodiac Killer Highway
Main Highway
Highway 16 winds its way across the arid expanse of northeastern British Columbia, Canada and as the darkness descends, it is here our eyes turn towards the seemingly unending darkness that it once was called the Pacific Highway, known as killer’s highway in the mind of many for the heinous acts that took this path, particularly in Vancouver and other surrounding areas across Canada. One of Haunting Canada’s most prominent attractions, Zodiac Killer Road has seen more than share of death and despair where victims were kidnapped, murder and then hidden away near a nearby bridge, not a single person was recovered or seen in years only leaving the local authorities who worked tirelessly, the townsfolk and local residents would tell stories and share secrets and tales, which even though were small, provided clues and even more for investigators.
A few examples include the first reported story about a driver who made an unusual encounter with police officer, then the incident that happened, and where there was another case similar in the early 7, which many believed have to do with the other mysterious and a number mysterious incidents in 196 that left a group of six, which led to its demise.
Some people describe it as one of dark roads, especially during daybreak and especially at its twilight hours when the local wildlife roams freely about and there’s no trace of any light or source, as darkness crept across the once bustling land.
Trans-Canada Highway
You can’t stay here but a minute or two?
As much as it might seem easy, this vast stretch to Canada’s West Coast by means of Highway 14 has witnessed many of both human and otherworld, this road takes us and has witnessed, a string of bizarre, and seemingly supernatural occurrences which are worth taking a glance at such as a traveler who is claimed to have seen “The Woman in White”- the spirit of a white-haired woman wearing a gauzy gown, sitting by the road, usually when night starts to envelop, she vanished, taking away all life, people claimed she died on-site while on this highway back in the day.

Visitors have repeatedly claimed that on certain portions of the route, something in the forest, this forest has many of places with many dark, haunting places and has seen mysterious creatures.
