Happy Halloween



Haunted Hatley Castle, Victoria, B.C.

Hatley Castle in Victoria was built in 1908 for James Dunsmuir, a former Premier and Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia. The house stayed in the Dunsmuir family until 1930, however once it was sold, a family of spirits moved in with the new tenants. The first sightings were of the son, who had died in the great war. He was seen by his sister, walking along the edge of the pond beside the castle. When Hatley Castle was transformed into a military academy, the spirit of Mrs. Dunsmuir began to appear. She has been known to drag young cadets out of their beds, pulling them to the floor in the middle of the night. Could this be her attempt to prevent her son's fate from befalling them?
