Waverly Hills Sanatorium wins!


Back in the day there was a Russian sub parked in New West near the Quay. A couple buddies and I were confident that we could get in, and one night we did. Now that was some scary shit. Thinking the whole time, what if the door closes and we're trapped in here? Or better yet, what if this thing sinks?

It all started when we would hit up the old Transit bus graveyard in Surrey. That place was wild, with stacks of old buses waiting to die. There were wrecks stored there too.

Shortly before it was torn down, the same crew hit the old jail in New West. At the time, there wasn't a lot left, but what was left was creepy as hell. Nothing beats wandering an old jail at night long after it's been shut down.

The newly redesigned casino just off the Willingdon exit also had a bad period. My cousin was a security guard there, and would have to search the floors at night. There were situations where he would enter a room, and the lights were off. But when he returned a few minutes later, the lights were on. The freakiest story he ever told me was when he was near the top floor, and shined his flashlight into one room. Inside was the freakiest looking homeless guy hovering over something he was eating. It was a surreal stance, almost like a demon eating someone's soul. The light hit the guy's face, and he shrieked a sound that made my 6'4" (240lb) cousin run like a girl to the exit. He called for support and the RCMP showed up, only to find nothing. The room was empty except for some staining that looked like a dog was eating there.

freaky shit.

Burnaby Art Gallery is haunted.

Grade 9 social studies teacher told us about a ghost she saw when she went there with another class for a field trip.

She was walking around the gallery looking at the art when she saw an older looking lady dressed in really old generation clothes. She thought it was weird but figured that it was probably a worker dressed that way to give it a bit of a historic feel. She waved at the woman and watched as she slowly glided straight into a wall.

Taken from a quick google search:

Burnaby Art Gallery
The present location of the Burnaby Art Gallery was the mansion Fairacres built by a tycoon Henry Ceperley in 1909. When his wife Grace died, she left it to Henry. She stated in her Will that if the house was sold, the proceeds were to be given to the City of Vancouver for a playground in Stanley Park. Contrary to his wife’s wishes, Henry kept the money when he sold Fairacres in 1922.

After several decades of different owners, William Franklin Wolsey, who was a wanted man in the U.S. bought Fairacres and started up a cult called The Temple of the More Abundant Life in 1954. There were reports of bigamy, incest and ritual abuse of children. He escaped to the U.S. in 1960 after his cult activities were discovered. From 1960 until 1967, this mansion was a dorm for Simon Fraser University. The City of Burnaby evicted the students in 1967 and decided to renovate the mansion for a new art gallery.

During and after the renovation, the ghostly activity and haunting began. There are sightings of a woman dressed in an old fashioned white gown who strolls the halls and walks through walls. There is also the figure of a man in old fashioned clothing who stands at the top of the main staircase. These two ghosts are believed to be Henry and Grace Ceperley. The theory is that Grace walks the halls to protest Henry’s failure to honour her Will and her concern over the abuse of children when the cult occupied her home.

Employees of the art gallery can hear the sounds of children crying from the vacant third floor. In addition, the sound of footsteps and furniture scraping can be heard from the same floor. In the basement, a worker found his tools hung back on the wall when he turned his back away from his workbench. He left the room for a brief moment and when he returned, his workshop was padlocked. Pictures appear to move off the walls and children’s faces can be seen looking out of the third floor windows.

Burnaby Shadbolt Centre for the Performing Arts
At the Shadbolt Centre for the Performing Arts, which is next door to the Burnaby Art Gallery, there was a girl actress who drowned in the nearby lake. It is believed that her ghost rearranges furniture and props. Doors seem to open for no apparent reason. One time, there was a girl dancing on stage and the lights went out when a song about spirits was performed. Once the song stopped, the power went on again. This same performer saw the ghost of the girl actress in the back room of the theatre.

I've heard this my entire life, yet I have not to find anyone who knows anything about haunted houses, mansions, etc. in the Victoria area.

Victoria is a small city, only takes 15 minutes to drive anywhere yet I don't know anything haunted.

If anyone has info about haunted shit in Victoria please let say it.

Those tunnels were to connect the different buildings (namely what was Finance and parliament). I worked in one of those bulidings and have been in those tunnels...nothing special. There are some better ones under Government st. that people keep saying don't exist anymore.

Not sure where you would build tunnels under the Empress as it was built on fill and the ground under it is rather water logged (and example of this is the fact that the Empress is actually slowly sinking).

[Harvey Specter]

I can imagine the Empress been haunted. I know for a fact that hotel Vancouver is haunted.

[TOPEC]

^ well instead of just saying its haunted, how about give some more info?

[Harvey Specter]

Hotel Vancouver
Hotel Vancouver, a well-known landmark recognized by its copper roof and gargoyles, is believed to be haunted by a lady dressed in red. Guests and employees have seen this elegant lady walking on an invisible ledge. The hotel’s elevator often makes an unscheduled stop on the 14th floor. When the doors open, this same lady appears to be floating along the hallway.

I've also experienced what might have been a ghost at Hotel Vancouver about a year ago. My friends from London where staying at the hotel so a bunch of us decided to go visit them. It was around 1am, Sunday morning and there room was on the club floor which is near the top. There was me and 3 other people, we got off at the floor and we're walking down the long corridor to their room when we hear a kid yelling and running behind us. We look back and there's no kid. We found it weird that a kid would be running around at this time. Anyways, we keep walking and we hear footsteps and a muffled sound behind us, like a group of people whispering. We stop and all look back, nothing. It was pretty freaky, we really had no clue wtf had happening and even as I type this I can still remember the sounds and the kid yelling.

So like 3 months ago I had to go pick up a coworker from Hotel Vancouver so as I'm waiting for him in the lobby I started chatting with some guy that works at the hotel. I joked around and said "I heard ghosts last time I was here". He said "yah, we hear ghosts all the time in the hotel, it's like whatever now". He wasn't kidding around. He even told me how some guests will push the button to go up to their floor but instead the elevator stops on a certain floor, doors open and close real quickly and continues to their floor.

Lots of great stories and posts guys. I love reading this stuff.

As for Vancouver, there are lots of stories of haunted places. I remember one Halloween, the Province newspaper posted their 10 most haunted houses in Vancouver, and the house on the corner of Cambie and King Ed. was on the list.

As far as urban exploration goes, that shit is a lot of fun too. In highschool, me and a bunch of friends explored some of the tunnels that run underneath Van Tech.
I wish I got to check out some of the things people here have posted like Hypa and Murdoc. The closest I got was an abandoned house on 41st near UBC and another one behind the Safeway on Kingsway.

^ ya, i heard how back in the day, ie. early 90's when it was built, the furniture was moved around when the residents would come n'stuff and how after a few attempts to "cleanse" the house, the owners gave up and some monks moved in or something.

The story I heard was that a family moved in and they had movers use a crane or something to move a grand piano into the second floor.
The next morning, the family awoke to find the piano outside on the front yard.

Supposedly, Samo Hung bought the house and donated it to some monk who tried to "cleanse" the house and the "stuff" went next door.
