In this book, the author has collected ghost stories specifically from Alberta where she has discovered strange tales of hauntings in schools, restaurants, theatres, hotels, government buildings and modern houses from Calgary and Edmonton to rural areas and the Rocky Mountains. Several spine-tingling tales are legendary accounts of native spirits who still inhabit the land.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn Edmonton, two former firehalls are widely reputed to be haunted; the McKay Avenue School is said to have at least half a dozen spirits; and employees of radio station CKUA have experienced a ghostly presence. \"Alberta's Most Haunted Place\" is probably the Deane House and Tea Room at Fort Calgary, where a number of different ghosts are taken for granted by the staff.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis eerie collection of supernatural tales includes, among others, the story of the Medicine Hat ghost train; the strange phenomena in a rural \"castle\" that cannot drive its owner away; the hauntings of the Banff Springs Hotel; the ghostly arsonist in a photograph at Chateau Lake Louise; evil ghosts of the Alberta Badlands; the beautiful lady in white who haunts Prince House in Heritage Park; the Canmore Opera House spirits; and the ghostly bookworm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0888821522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780888821522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dundurn Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 6.10w x 0.51d","brand":"Barbara Smith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44716347556095,"sku":"9780888821522","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5131c433-f76b-4323-a08a-eee19fc56b4b.jpg?v=1705681978","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ghost-stories-of-alberta-barbara-smith-9780888821522","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
