Victoria BC Canada has a reputation of being one of North America's real
haunted places. In fact one local expert conducts nightly ghost tour walks in
Downtown Victoria.
- One of British Columbia's most famous ghosts is Doris Gravlin, a
nurse who was murdered by her husband on the Victoria Golf Course on September
22, 1936. The ghost of Doris Gravlin is frequently seen along the 7th fairway
and the adjacent beach (where her body was found) and in numerous other places
nearby.
Ghostly Walks are walking tours conducted every night from mid-June to
mid-September and on weekends through the rest of the year, with additional
tours in October. Ghost tours for booked groups may be arranged at any time.
The tours have been developed by John Adams, one of Victoria's foremost
historians and storytellers, who has been leading ghost tours through the alleys
and haunted places of Victoria since 1970. He has appeared on the TV series
Ghosts and Ghoulies and on OLN's Creepy Canada. The tours are conducted by John
and his team of expert guides.
Ghostly Walks are guaranteed to be spell-binding, entertaining, memorable, and
most of all ... spine-tingling!
- Ghostly Walk Tours go all
year, contact the Gingerbread Cottage B&B for current details
Through the summer months, Ghostly Walks follow five totally different
routes. During the winter, the tours follow route 1 (Bastion Square and Old
Town). All start from the Visitor Info Centre and last 90 minutes.
The Gingerbread Cottage Bed and Breakfast has a History of many friendly
hauntings.
- It was once owned by a reclusive sea captain who still guards his
stash of cash hidden somewhere in the house. When Gingerbread Cottage Bed and
Breakfast bought the old Victorian duplex, Vanessa found many holes in the
hardwood floors where people thought the money had been hidden.
- On a lighter "haunting" note, Dean was digging a hole in the yard one day and
heard a loud hollow "clinck" on the end of his shovel. Although he was not
really convinced about the Sea Captain's Loot story that day - at that
moment - he seemed to buy into it. He was secretly praying for the story to
be true as he jabbed away at the hollow sounding object with a heavy
crowbar. The object broke under the stress and revealed a hollow area. Dean
crawled into the excavation to look for his treasure when someone in the
house flushed the toilet....
"Buried Treasure alright" Dean thought, as he
handed the plumber a large check for an emergency service call! The
memory of that ghostly costly experience still haunts Dean today!
Stay with us at the Gingerbread Cottage Bed and Breakfast for a
heartwarming 'good-spirit filled' holiday and take the Ghostly Tour of the
many other haunted places in Victoria.
