On this episode of Canadian Creepies, Valerie and Amanda head west to uncover one of the most shocking corruption scandals in Canadian history — The Mulligan Affair.
In 1950s Vancouver, Police Chief Walter Mulligan stood as the face of law and order… until a series of leaks exposed a tangled web of bribery, vice, and backroom deals that reached from the city’s underbelly to the highest ranks of power. What followed was a public scandal that shattered trust and left Vancouver haunted by its own hypocrisy.
Then, in this week’s Creep of the Week, we meet Dr. Chris Mazza — The Doctor Who Bled the Skies. Once a celebrated figure in Ontario’s air ambulance program, his story spirals into deception, ego, and misuse of public trust — a modern echo of the same moral decay that fueled Mulligan’s fall.
Some ghosts wear badges. Others wear lab coats.
