In the 1870s, a quiet home in Amherst, Nova Scotia, became the center of one of the most famous poltergeist hauntings in North American history. Esther Cox, a young woman living in the house, was plagued by violent knocks, moving objects, and attacks by an unseen force. The haunting drew reporters, investigators, and skeptics from across Canada. In this episode, we revisit the strange case of the Great Amherst Mystery.
