    Abstract

    Long-dead British soldiers, grieving lovers, an undead priest - Niagara-on-the-Lake’s long and colourful history is kept alive by ghosts of its past. Widely considered to be Canada’s most haunted community, the town has preserved much of its built heritage, thus providing perfect "haunts" for age-old spirits. Through historical investigation and engrossing storytelling, the authors have detailed nearly two dozen ghosts.

  • Death The Final Mystery

    Creator

    Fanthorpe, Lionel and Patricia

    Abstract

    The greatest human problem is that we are all born in the condemned cell. Money and medical science can extend the human lifespan significantly — perhaps up to one thousand years via cloning and cryogenics — but in the end, when the last medical miracle has been exhausted, Death still waits patiently for us.

  • Ghosts of the Canadian National Exhibition

    Creator

    Palmisano, Richard

    Abstract

    The Canadian National Exhibition grounds are so richly steeped in history that there are spirits that dwell there who like to come out and play and work. When one thinks of Toronto’s Canadian National Exhibition, memories of bright lights, cotton candy, the rush of people, and the excitement of rides spring to mind. But when the lights go down and the people head home, the fairground takes on a life of its own. The spirits that dwell there from the exhibition’s long history come out to play and work, even to scare the occasional employee.

This meticulously researched guide plunges into the thick of the controversy with an unexpected and compelling approach to the UFO mystery, from Kenneth Arnold's 1947 sighting of the first "flying saucers" to present-day encounters.
