There are also stories of maids cleaning the room reporting blood seeping from the walls, as this was the location of the rumored suicide of a woman named Kate because she learned that her newly wed husband lost his life in an automobile accident. Though something of a focal point for the reports of paranormal activity on the floor, the entire second floor has something of a ghostly reputation. Other reports have a woman in a ball gown appearing at the foot of a bed or wandering the hotel's hallways. In 1989, an employee reported seeing an apparitional figure named Theodore sitting at a table in the dining room, busily consuming away at a ghostly meal and apparently unaware of the employee's presence.

Newfoundland and Labrador

• Chez Briann Restaurant in St. John's. When the building was originally used as an inn or apartments, a woman woke up in this building with a ghostly man floating above her. That woman was unable to move, and as she laid paralyzed, a strange man placed two coins over her eyes. He seemed to be preparing her for interment. In fact, this building was later a funeral home and is believed to be haunted by mournful families who entered there. Another woman's specter has been seen by staff and visitors wandering the hallways. She has a long, jagged scar down her torso as if from a recent autopsy, but walks around as though nothing happened here. Perhaps this woman is unaware about being deceased.

Their only memories are a putrid smell, and a grotesque old woman in ragged clothes crawling towards them from the bushes forcing them to the ground with the smell of death.
• Headless Ghost of Queen's Road in St. John's. This spooky legend dates to 1745. Samuel Pettyham rented a house on the outskirts of town, and one night, as he was being driven home in a carriage from a friend's house, the horse stopped and would not budge. Pettyham got out and offered to walk the rest of the way. Upon entering the laneway of his little house, he spotted what looked like a lantern carried by another person, so he hurried to meet them. When the figure stepped into the moonlight, Pettyham took one look and fled back up Queen's Road, swearing he would never spend another night at the house. He claimed to have seen a tall man with his head completely severed, almost at the shoulder. The headless specter in question is the ship's captain. He was in love with a beautiful woman who lived in Pettyham's house on the outskirts of town. When he was at sea, the woman flirted with a local man, who was jealous and decided to rid himself of competition. One night, as the captain was leaving the little house, the other man cut his head of, close to the shoulders. The legend says the murderer was never tried, and now the headless captain's soul still roams the site where he was murdered, looking for his killer. It was featured on Creepy Canada.
• Iron Ore Mines on Wabana, Bell Island. Iron ore was found here as far back 1578 but serious mining did not begin until the 1890s. These mines reached far beyond this island out three miles under the ocean floor. In 1950, the first mine was closed and the last one closed in 1966. Numerous tragic accidents seem to have led to the paranormal activities. Apparitional miners have been seen by visitors both inside (which is now sealed off) and outside this place. An entire shift of specters has been seen by witnesses exiting one of the mines at the time shift change would have been set occasionally. It was featured on Creepy Canada.

The duel began on March 30, 1826. Philpot's shot missed his intended target. Rudkin had fired aimlessly into the air in hopes to settle this disagreement but Philpot refused and prepared the second round. The second shot proved to be fatal for Philpot who was wounded and died a short time after. This spooky gun-shooting duel carries on and at night you may be able to catch a glimpse of the battle. The loser in this case came out the most memorable of the two gunmen and continues to be a legend here. It was featured on Creepy Canada.

• The Algonquin in St. Andrews. The old man helps guests to their room as he tells them about the hotel and the town.

People who have been in the attic claim they are often suddenly overcome with a peculiar 'feeling.' Perhaps the most active room in Old City Hall is Courtroom 33 which is believed to be haunted by the spirits of the last men condemned to hang in Canada. Because this is said to be the most haunted room in the building, many paranormal researchers and journalists have attempted to spend the night in this room every Halloween, as a tradition, of course! According to John Robert Colombo's Haunted Toronto, one group of reporters managed to make it through the night only to abandon their mission prematurely at 4:00 AM claiming they witnessed "cool fogs" and heard weird noises that left them "glued to the floor."
• Old Don Jail in Toronto. Officially known as the Toronto Jail, construction on this building was completed in 1864 and was used to house remanded offenders.
