Hey, this is Jazz and you're listening to Giving Up
the Ghost podcast. Welcome. It's been a long time. I
haven't talked to you guys for a while. Hope everything's good.
So just releasing tonight's episode six month hiatus. My apologies,
and it is going to be a continuation from part
two from our last episode way back in October October.
(01:05):
The last episode was the Fantastical Emporium of Mythical Mythical Finds,
and coincidentally enough, they're going to be having another market
May third, and that is going to be running at
four to oh four oh eight four to twenty cordon.
It is I believe, the Masonic Temples, so please check
(01:26):
that out. Lots of creepy, cool, wonderful things. They've got
their unique items. You know, we could find great food,
some card readers, I believe, So please go check out
the market again tonight. This is a continuation from that.
I apologize for the delay. I've been working on some
other projects so I really haven't had a lot of
(01:47):
time to push the podcast. But have faith, we are
still Winnipeg's first and only paranormal podcasts, so definitely reach
out to us at giving Up the ghost Podcast gmail
dot com. If you just want to say, huh, I
shoot the paranormal shit, all that good stuff. We will
have more episodes coming out. I had so much to
(02:08):
listen through, so much audio, probably another six episodes worth.
Kudos and great big ghost love out to our friends
at the Winnipeg Paranormal Group, to Ashley and Kelly. They
had allowed us to come out with them to the
investigation that they had had at first was the Aviation Museum.
(02:33):
Share was able to come out on that, so that's
super awesome. And then also I was able to go
to the investigation in November that they had at the
Synepoint Park. How cool is that at the pavilion. I
mean that place is super duper old, so you got
to know there's some ghosts and spirits hanging around there.
But in any event, that was a cool night. So
those episodes are coming out over the course of the
(02:54):
next few months as well. Me and Sure do plan
on getting back together because and it feels so good
and you know, just hopefully to get some more material out.
We love sitting in the pod lounge and just shooting
the shit, having some bevies and talking about ghosts. Ghost
Love right anyway, But tonight's episode is a continuation of
(03:16):
the fantastical Emporium of mythical Finds. It was a great day.
A lot of cool people came by. I told us
some good ghost stories. I mean, there's no such thing
as a bad ghost stories. They're like really the and yeah,
So enjoy today's episode and remember to live every day
like it is your last. But never give up the ghost.
(03:39):
I still want to find all transistor radios and mess
around and rewire the inside and make my own or
our own spirit boxes. One on YouTube I saw. Yeah. Well,
we were also saying that it's money.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
It takes some stories and make them emotions.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
And that'd be you know, Oh my god, Sorry, we
gotta where are you? I can't that's not staying. I'm
not very witchy, after all. I don't know you to be.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
Have we laughed?
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Oh really?
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It's got a little bit of everything, merch and and
ghost stories. If you have any ghost stories, I don't know,
do you want any ghost stories? I have a couple. Yeah,
we've never talked like this before, so I don't know. Well,
if you ever want to share. Yeah, I have weird
(04:58):
things when my kids pa, Okay, shortly after I'll hear
something that like I just lost my little I know, yeah,
sorry the next step or that evening, I actually heard
his nails. Really I took. Yeah, yeah, it was very distinct,
and it just set me like, so do you think
(05:20):
they're saying goodbye to you when you hear from their
last Yeah, I've had that three times happen, you know
with dogs that have just whether it's an org or yeah, yeah,
the flash of rice that just shouldn't be there. Yeah, actually,
do you know I was always meaning to tell you.
So you know that house that that okay, so when
(05:43):
you're going down Drake and then there's that house that no, no, wait,
what's the street over from your parents? Oh, there's Blueberry,
and then there's the A's what's it? Yeah, so you
know the there's the house beside them, and then the
house that was on the corner that had the fence
(06:04):
that I guess would kind of be not sharing the backyard,
but the you know, like Kitty corner. Yeah, that house
is super hontied, a super hontied right on ag the corner. Yeah,
the guy that never puts his grass. Well, I mean,
I'm talking some stories I heard about thirty years ago,
but really super haunted. I'm assuming like the TV would
(06:24):
be unplugged and would turn on on its own the
rocking chair, would you know? I didn't know that. Yeah,
a lot of houses in Windsor Park would be surprised. Yeah, probably, yeah. Yeah, anyway,
you're gone out, okay, yeah, talk to you after for sure? Okay,
(06:45):
Hi sure?
Speaker 4 (06:47):
Sorry, Oh no, no the picture because it's so cool
that you have your setup.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Here and everything. Oh for sure, thank you.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yeah, you're like taking stories from people.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
And yeah, yeah we're when it takes first and only
paranormal podcast. We've been doing it five and a half years. Cool.
We come out to, you know, functions like this quite often.
Quite often we'll record the Winnipeg Paranormal Group when they investigate.
We work with them quite a bit. They help us
co host. It's a it's a love relationship. And yeah,
(07:16):
we record people's stories in Winnipeg and Manitoba. So that's
really cool.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Oh see, I's a giant holder that need and so
to me, it's it's incomplete. It needs be hard right here.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That's just asking who's asking another? So, do you have
any ghost stories yourself? I do, yeah, and he would
like to share today? Or yeah, yeah, oh for sure,
Oh for sure.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
So I want to share with my what is your
first name? Sorry? Sure? Yeah, my name is Lily. I'm Lily,
I'm Jazz. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
I've only seen spirits once in my life, okay, but
I have seen them more than once in that incident, right,
but never saw them again.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
So I think it must have been the location. Okay.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
You know, some folks think think that there could have
been quarts under that location.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Corps like bodies quartz quarts, oh.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Yeah, yeah, to help quartz stone, to help amplify the signals.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
But when I was.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
I would have been six years old. I was living
in a basement suite of four plex okay, and twice
I saw figures. They looked the same both times, the
I think, And it could have been even days apart
(08:55):
that I saw break and it never happened again, like
I said, but it was like it was like the
chalk outline of a person, you know, like when you
find when we do the murder, the murder outline on
the floor. But it was I describe it as those
(09:16):
those black light marker neon blackboards. Okay, so where where
the lines kind of fluoresce as if they're lit up,
and it was like squiggles, and so that line was
squiggly and it was like neon colors layered on top
of each other.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Really, yes, And it.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
Was the outline of a person and one I just
saw it walking across the house.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I totally get energy from that, like it's somebody's enerxactly.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Yeah, So it was someone walking across the house once
and then the second time, I was sitting in the
passenger seat of the car and my mom was loading
the trunk or something, and the front door of the
car was open, and the figure sat down in the
driver's sept and then disappeared.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Wow. Yeah, that's pretty intense. It is really intense for
you to remember all these years later.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
I mean, I haven't specific I have an idetic memory,
so I have memories all the way down to age
three very well, and I remember things very succinctly. But yes,
to remember that specifically even it makes me sure that
I hadn't ever and haven't ever seen anything else like it,
because I know I would remember it, right, But I'm
(10:33):
just surprised that I only ever saw it in that
location because I've been to a lot of different places
and I've always been very open energetically, So I only
see it in that one place. That really makes me
wonder what the story of that place is. And none
of it was.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Malicious, and it was all just energy and it was.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
And you know, like the one crossing the hallway could
have been anything depending on the location, but the fact
that it sat down in the car seat, Yeah, that
one showed intention different because it's interacting with its environment
and not just passing through.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Right.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah. Interesting. And how long do you think you lived there?
Do you remember? For two years? Two years? Yeah? And
what part of town was that in?
Speaker 4 (11:18):
This was in Edmonton, in the in the River Valley okay, Yeah,
And the River Valley is one of our oldest areas
in Edmonton.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Old Strathcona is was like where Fort Edmonton was and
so that was the original outpost. But then in the
River Valley was the Brickyard and we have a ton
of history there and it's all written on plaques and everything.
So it's one of the older areas in Edmonton.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Right, Yeah, that's interesting.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Yeah, and I lived in that neighborhood most of my
life and my parents still live there to this day.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Okay. So, and had they ever reported ever feeling, no experience.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
No one else reported anything.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
You're the chosen one, I guess I was. We were.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Yeah, but I will never ever forget that. Oh. Yeah,
and the way that I saw that energy has never
been described by anyone.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Else the same way I And honestly, we've heard a
lot of stories. Yes, I would almost validate that. Yeah,
I've never heard energy looking like either. Yeah, very cool. Yes,
thanks for listening, Thanks for sharing. Yeah, it was great,
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
My my roommate in Vancouver is a is part of
a paranormal investigators group okay now, and I've gone on
a couple of adventures with them.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
I haven't got to go.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
I haven't gotten to go on any group like lock
Ins al any overnight okay.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
But they do ghost tours okay.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
And so I've gone on the ghost tour with them
a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Well, we work quite a bit with these ladies here
from the Winnipeg paranormal group. So they do public investigations. Yes,
and I've gone with them on a couple. It's quite interesting,
especially with the gadgets. I love the gadget me too.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
I've watched a lot of the pharanormal TV shows and
I find the gadgets interesting, especially because of how I
saw the spirit myself right when you can the one
that does like the lasers, that's my human.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Oh you're human.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Yeah, the one that does the lasers, you know, yes,
and maps the figures like that's the one that freaks
me out.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
I would love to get that device. But they got
this cool one and it's like a rope, like a
rope light and you can't hit it hard set it off,
yet when they're communicating with a spirit, it will go. So,
you know, very cool, very very cool. It is very cool.
(13:55):
Thank you. I spa thank you, thank you trying. I'm
listen listen inspiration behind then past. It's a good's it's
very interesting story. I'm glad you asked. So I'm a
I'm a worker. I'm an office summer drone and it's
(14:15):
very very boring. So we listen to music because you're
going away, you know, going out your business busy day
and music's nice. I love music, but it just I
wasn't getting anything from it, and then podcasts were a thing.
So I love ghosts. I've I've had a lot of experiences.
I've always been the creepy kid, you know, I love
all this stuff and whatever. And I'm like, so I
(14:36):
started looking for like podcasts, ghost paranormal stuff, right, but
there really wasn't anything for Winnipeg or Manitoba or Canada.
It's like California, It's Toronto. Nothing here, you know. So
one of my buddies that I reconnected on Facebook with
from junior high school of all things, because we you know,
(14:57):
started reconnecting on Facebook, and we're very min I'm the
same mind, liked ideas and thoughts, and she believes in
all this stuff. So I said to her, you know
what a podcast is, and she's said kinda. And again,
this is like five and a half years ago, and
I printed off all these pages to make her a presentation,
you know, and he said, if you want to try
(15:17):
this out, you know, we've gone for coffee a few times.
She goes, yeah, sure, she goes, it might be fun.
I said, I don't if we're gonna make money out
of it. We'll see what happens. And that's kind of
how you know. Yeah, so we only do winn a
Peg the Man and told us. We try to like
if people come up to us and they start telling
us stories of Edmonton like one girl just did or Pennsylvania,
I'll put it in the show. But I mean usually
(15:38):
as a rule, Yeah, like we do research and we'll investigate,
well they investigate, but then we'll cover their stories. And
we've gone out with them on some investigations and we've
recorded some voices ourselves too, like you can't explain and
like at the dolbn Art you know, the museum in Carlton. Okay, Yeah, yeah,
we record some voices then. Yeah, yeah, I don't see.
(16:03):
I don't know a bream it's a stuff yet. Yeah, yeah,
it's not. I just don't know. I think there's a
lot of things we don't know. That's right, you know.
And we always say it is a science that people
just have not discovered yet, and that's essentially it.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
I think so too. I think there's there's different explanations
as music. Yeah. Anyway, Yeah, do you find like generally speak,
I'm just curious, do you find definitely speaking.
Speaker 5 (16:26):
Do you get one of similar stories and was like.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
A place Yeah, I mean yes and no, Like today
I heard a few stories. I've never heard anything similar
to that before, you know, so I'm like, well that's
pretty cool. So I mean, I think it's just so individual,
like ghost stories and stuff are so personal, like, yeah,
(16:50):
you know a lot of them happened in a home. Yeah,
that's in a home where somebody's died. So I mean,
you know you got that pattern and stuff. But just uh,
like we've heard of attachments, you know, which is not cool,
like you know, your spirits following you and stuff, and yeah,
like there's a whole bunch of different weird stuff out there,
but you just can't explain. I don't stuff to thing.
(17:12):
Yeah yeah, and I just love it. I just like
tind it's fast. Yeah really. Oh yeah, I'm not scanning.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
I'm not scarting spirits at all.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
No. But he was working on.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
For no reasons.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
And it wasn't Rust because I said, and you know Rust,
I said, yeah, and I said, you know what rust?
And the color I go, would you think it's Russ?
He goes, that wasn't Rust, you know, and then he
also he does, ah trac. It actually was our Hallowing
episode from twenty twenty one and it's called it's called
nightmare fuel because me and my pod partner, we're sitting
(17:54):
across from each other, and we literally got shivers when
we had this person on the phone to tell us that,
because well, we'll do phone interviews because it is my house,
our house. I don't just drag anybody, and you know,
like these ladies that come over people I've gotten to
know if that's different, but people that tell us a
story and they want to tell it, you know. So
me and my partner of poud partner were sitting there
and we had the gentleman on the phone. He does
(18:16):
HVAC and he said, when he first started doing h
back in the city, you know you're on paul a
lot from middle of the night stuff right. So as
he was waiting for on call calls to come in
with this company, this is like first or second week.
There was a house in Wolsey that had been abandoned
for like twenty years and a property management company had
bought it to try and like release it out and
rent it out. So they had to they had the
(18:38):
contract to like make sure all the hvacs, like the plumbing,
furnace and everything was working. So it was. It was
on his to do list, so he thought, well, he'll
do it in the middle of the night while I
was waiting for other bulls. Right, So oh yeah, that
went south really fast. Like the ship he told us,
it was just like what're my and you believed him? See,
And that's the difference. Like there's probably been a two
(19:00):
or three people we have interviewed. I'm not saying we
don't buy out, but it's just like it's almost like
you're forcing the story. But when you talk to somebody
that something's really traumatic traumatic happened you, you believe it,
not just not that they have to sell it to you,
but you can hear it in their voice, like you
you know what I mean genuinely, Yeah, yeah, what we're
(19:27):
seeing his fuye. Yeah, so something happened to him like yeah,
like he saw a dark shadow figure in the base
when right as like he felt like he was being
watched and he saw glowing eyes, right, and then he's like, well, actually,
and before that, a bunch of series of other things happened,
like the headlight he had would die out right because
(19:47):
there's no power hooked up yet to the house. He
kind of was yeah, and then you go out to
his he'd go out to his truck to get new
batteries for his headlight that he already put new batteries
in like a couple of days before, and he's sitting here.
All the lights went on in that house and he's
like okay, so then as he goes back in the house,
the lights go off, you know, just stuff like that.
It was, it was, it was mess But the thing
(20:10):
is it was messing with him and it started to
get like into his head, just like something at the
Fort Gary Hotel because he had to do the HVAC.
Like there's a double basement. A lot of people don't
realize this at the Fort Gary Hotel. So you've got
the regular basement and then you got like the the
rough crew basement where you know they do all the
plumbing and that's okay, you reready know who worries. So yeah,
(20:32):
that was pretty freaky. So yeah, a lot of stories
like that. Yeah, do you guys believe in ghosts? Do
you have ghost stories? Okay? Many as I have a
couple of Dystone He's not a make good storyteller, But
you know what, it's it's not all about It's more
(20:52):
about the experience and relating as to what happens to you,
because a lot of people have had a lot of experiences,
you know, and they're they're kind of afraid to share
to be judged. But where you're kind of like give
them the option, you know, like ant, well, it's not live,
it's just recording and then I edited after. But anyway,
we just get people a form to be able to
speak their truth without judgments and ridicule, you know, because
(21:13):
some people are like, here's there's such a thing. We
don't divide it anyway. Oh yeah, for sure is not
a local one. Oh that's fine, but but yeah, I
don't know. I just want to tell yeah, extreme or anything.
But I don't know, remember what I said, I'm not
(21:35):
I don't think I'm not a true I don't know
if you're a bump and go, oh it's right, right.
I like to really try to rule everything out. Yeah,
so okay, all right, tell us what's again? Your name? Sorry?
My name is Karen, Karen Long. Hi. Hi. It happened
in two thousand and eight. My husband and I were
(21:56):
on our honeymoon. Is this good man? I'm talking? Oh yeah, no, no,
that's good. Has and Iron. Our honeymoon, we went to
the East coast, Okay, and during Nova Scotia blah blah blah.
His auntie has a summer house. She called it on
the Cape Britain Trail.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
So we went for a drive. It was about a
six hour drive. Everything's fine there, it's beautiful there. I've
a lot of Yeah. We turned onto her driveway and
all the hairs on my arms stood up immediately. And
it's doing as I'm telling you, I've never experienced anything
like that. Yeah, yeah, And I was okay, whatever, I
(22:35):
don't know, And I'm assuming it's an old home, right
like it was an old home. Yeah, yeah, a lot
of the characters out there. Yeah it was a hundred
year old house. Yeah, but I've been in I've lived
in a in an over one hundred year old house.
I grew up an old house. Anyway. Right on, as
soon as we got on the driveway this happened. I
got a weird feeling. We went into the house and
(22:56):
it was a very old, somewhat creepy house. She was
a craft she had dull parts. Oh god. So that
didn't help. But but again I was like, this is
all fine. I'm a creepy kid. I'm good with this. Yeah,
but I had a very not evil feeling, but very
creepy feeling the whole time. I was never been at
(23:18):
so unease in my entire life. I don't think. I
never said anything to my husband because I thought it
was stupid. Yeah, we were sitting at dinner then, and
after dinner we were playing cards and we heard upstairs
thump thump, thump, almost like someone dropped a ball down
the stairs, but only through that. And I swear I
(23:39):
looked at it my husband and I said, fuck off,
don't never do that again. There's no way he could
have done it. And he's like, what are you talking
Because he was a joker. He's asked now, but he
was a joker. And I said, don't do that, and
it wasn't him. Anyway. That night, I refused to sleep upstairs.
I wouldn't go upstairs. We slept on the floor in
(24:01):
this big room with a big bay window. Okay, I
didn't sleep a wink all night. I never saw anything
with my eyes, but what I felt, I felt there
was an elderly man there, okay, who wasn't evil. He wasn't,
you know, but he was like what are you doing
in my house? He's watching you, is what it is. Right,
he was watching us around the corner, around the corner
(24:22):
of the doorway. But I didn't see it, only felt.
I only thought it, and he was thinking, what are
you doing in my house? Like get out?
Speaker 4 (24:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (24:31):
My husband snort all night next to me. Anyway, the
next morning, I just wanted to go it's okay. We
left and I still had that feeling, and as soon
as we got off the driveway it ended. And then
I said to my husband, I said, I told him
all what I just told you. He goes, I felt
the same thing, and I'm like, why didn't you say something?
(24:53):
But since it was his aunt's house, he's been to
this house before. Oh, he had never moved before because
we're from here and she lives in the East Coast. Okay,
So the ending of the story is we went back
to her place. Yeah, and her husband, before we said anything,
came running up to us and he goes, oh, did
(25:13):
old Charlie Smiley say anything to you? Oh? What? Then
he goes, he goes, yeah, he got the guy that
died in the house. They waked him in that room
that we slept in. Oh, shit. Yeah, and so I
think it makes so much sense, right, he almost feel
kind of good, but it's validated, right, like in a way, Yes, yes,
(25:35):
for sure. But also I've never experienced anything that your
husband hear the thunk plunk clunk as well, yes, And
that's that's the other thing that's so cool. And when
people tell us stories and we hear stories and stuff,
like when everybody hears or sees the same thing at
the same time, right, then then you know, right, how
would I? And when he said he felt the same thing,
(25:57):
And then when his uncle said, did char Smiley talked
to and I was like yeah, yeah, But I guess
what I'm what I'm confused about her. What I'm I'm
thinking is like, why would my husband died? My husband
died nine years ago and he was the love of
(26:17):
my life, thank you, and I beg to see him,
to talk to him, like like so if if we
can come back, or can we or does the household
on to something? I don't know. Yeah, I guess My
point is it bothers me because my husband never came
back and if anyone should have, it should have been
I get it. Yeah, I get that. I get that way. Yeah,
(26:40):
did you ever go to a medium? Have you ever
been to see a psychic medium or anything? I have
since I never mentioned anything, no, no, first or anything
that's right, and she didn't me pick up on it
or anything like that. Yeah, and believe me, I've often
I've often thought like a are you here? Like what
are you?
Speaker 3 (26:58):
You know?
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Like and maybe maybe he has crossed over, like was
he sick or was it sudden? Both he had diabetes,
but it was sudden his he was getting sicker with it.
But he he dropped dead one morning. He was dead
before he hit the ground. They say, yeah, yeah, see
because like stories that we've heard and you know, just
(27:21):
from people and stuff that usually like when it's like sudden,
like you know, whether it's a murder or suicide or
I shouldn't say suicide, but you know when when people
commit suicide, sometimes they have that last minute of I
don't want to and so when it's like sudden and
you know like that, usually they stick around, right are
you in the same house or no, I couldn't live there? Yeah,
(27:44):
yeah I left, but I don't know. But anyway, thank you.
Oh thanks for sharing, Karen. It was nice. Yeah, yeah,

Ye respect your story.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Oh cool, I don't. I don't unfortunately.
Speaker 7 (29:26):
Listen to yeah a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Yeah, I don't really listen to podcasts that much. But
my friends put it down one time. Oh yeah, Yeah,
I listened to it another time too. Very cool. Thank you,
keep keep up the good word. Okay, Yeah, how elaborate
does this story have to do? How elaborate does this

Speaker 4 (29:54):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Yeah, those that we last did for parents pas. Definitely no, No,
is it recorded its recording? Oh okay, that's okay, I'll talk,
I'll talk.
Speaker 7 (30:10):
There lots of things happened there to everyone, But for me,
I was home alone with my daughter, who is like
two at the time, and she wasn't in the same
room as me, so I thought she had done it.
But someone put the bathroom taps on and it definitely
wasn't her.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
She couldn't even reach the bathroom. Yeah, so the taps
went on and were running out of work. Yeah, that
was the only prison. That was the only thing that
happened with me. Other people had other experiences, Yeah, like
waking up to jar a peanut butter in the middle
of the living room and like really weird things like that,
(30:52):
and my brother used to have the like bizarre dreams
in that house. Yeah okay, yeah in Transpota. Yeah yeah.
My stepdad still lives there. We lost my mom a
year and a half ago, but he's still there.
Speaker 7 (31:06):
I don't know if he was having any any other
weird hauntings, but either someone was haunted or the house
is haunted because we are all kinds of crazy things happen.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Yeah yeah, yeah we all thanks for sure, thank you?
Yeah all saw that right? Cool? Maybe we should investigate.
(31:42):
I think there's an investigation that needs to be done here.
There's some candles for.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Saying there you go, hello, wow, food drains?
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Yeah, old school. Do you have any ghost stories?
Speaker 3 (32:12):
Do I have any ghost stories?
Speaker 1 (32:13):
You have any ghost stories?
Speaker 3 (32:16):
How many do you want?
Speaker 1 (32:18):
I'll take whatever you can give us.
Speaker 8 (32:20):
Let's see one interesting experience in Saskatoon that when I
grew growing up in Saskatoon, on the east side of
the city, just up house the forestry farm, there's an
old barn okay, and my dad always told me that
this barn was haunted and he says that it belonged
to a rich farmer.
Speaker 6 (32:40):
And what happened one day he went into town and
lost all his money gambling, went into the barn and
hung himself. Since then, nobody can stay in the barn
at night.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
The cows won't go in there, well, not even the cows.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
And it's like an old, abandoned farmhouse.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (32:56):
So me and my friend decided we were going to
go and check it out, young brave puffs. We were
walk up and we got probably from here to.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
The wall to the barn right and.
Speaker 8 (33:08):
I don't know what it was, but just something right
there at that time, and we both turned around and
ran like hell. And we both admitted later there was
something chasing us for sure. We don't know what, but yeah,
you're scared.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
That's pretty.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
This is not ghost, but this is something else. One
air normal paranorma.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
We cover it.
Speaker 8 (33:31):
My bedroom and I had my bed laying this way,
and I had a window at the foot of my bed, okay,
and I was on the upper part of the house,
so my windows like about eight feet above the ground.
So I was sleeping one night and I dreamt that
I saw a figure come on and looking in this
room and through the moonlight. Then I woke up and
(33:53):
there was this moonlight shouting in the window.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
Just yeah, so it's like somebody was watching you.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
Yeah, right, but it was like a sleeping but yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
But you know that's what they say, right, They say
that people wake up because some of theo's were something's
watching them, That's what they say. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (34:09):
I believe that not necessarily ghosts or even because I've
encountered a lot of spirits that, you know, their dormant
spirits there for some reason or other. There's one fellow,
you know, caretaker good church. He ended up he lived
in the church basement, Okay, and when he died, he
stayed there. He didn't want to leave.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
It, enjoyed it. Yeah, And that's what they say. You know,
when when people pass and if there's spirit remains here
for whatever reason, unfinished business or they just refuse to
cross or whatever, they'll gravitate back to their usually their
favorite place or maybe the place that they're just familiar with. Right, Like,
they won't necessarily haunt or stay where they've passed, but
(34:50):
they'll go back to like good times or good memories
or connection with family, you know. So I mean that's
that's always very plausible. You know, it makes sense. I
mean I would too.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Ones. And then there's of course the bad ones. You know,
somebody's murdered and usually they need vengeance.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Yeah, or they're confused.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
And she needs to be fixed. Yeah, sometimes they need
help passing on exactly.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
Energy is energy, so you know what, like the person,
the body may pass, but the spirit lives on, so
it doesn't dissipate, just continues.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
That's cool. You're part of the paranormal gear people.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
Well, yeah, we do a lot with them. We work
with them, they go in their investigations, we record, We've
been on investigations with them, and they'll help us. You know,
when when my husband can't come or my or my
pod partner. I have another girl that we do this
together when she can't make it out. These ladies are
kind of enough. They'll sit with me and we'll collect
stories and we'll talk to people.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
So I'm sure you've checked out many of the well
known places here.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Oh yeah, think yeah, for sure. There's almost two hundred
episodes out. Two hundred episodes, Yepkay, it's the podcast Giving
Up the Ghost Podcast. Take a course if you want to,
and it's available iTunes and.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Radio okay, Spotify. But it's just a podcast.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
Yeah, well we do.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
We have a YouTube channel too, but it's it's mostly audio.
The audio part of our episodes on YouTube. Yeah, YouTube
as well. So I've done some. I've done some, I sure.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Yeah. So if you punch in giving up the ghost podcasts,
giving up the ghost, but you gotta do podcasts at
the end of it, because if you just do giving
up the ghosts of so many albums and bands and
books were you.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
Know yeah, okay, I could see that.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
But we're Winnipeg's first and only paranormal podcast. We've been
doing it for six and a half five and a
half years, almost six and quite often we're on feedspot
dot COM's top ten Best Canadian paranormal podcast. So yeah,
we're just kind of one of those weird Nietzschee things.
And I mean, like we fit in. You know, we
just do Winnipeg and Manitoba. Oh excuse me, my voice
(36:50):
is killing you.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Try doing more and you've got too much of it.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
And you know, we probably could, and we we invite
people for telling stories all over like we're good with that.
But you know what, it's it's so cool when when
you see a place and you know a place and
somebody tells you a story about that, and you're just like, ye,
you can look at a place. It's like, oh yeah,
that's why, yep, I was lucky.
Speaker 8 (37:10):
A few months ago, I was in Swift Current and
the girl that I was staying with there, she lives
across the street from the graveyard.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
So we went out in the middle of the night,
well not middle ten o'clock at night. We went out
to Potter's Field.
Speaker 8 (37:23):
They had a Potter's Field there where all the people
who died from the Spanish flu in nineteen nineteen, Like
I mean, they were dying in mass and they just
buried them in mouth they had. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
So we were wandering around Potter's Field and she could
sense these people. Yeah yeah, I couldn't.
Speaker 8 (37:39):
I was just but I could sense the despondency of
the place, the sadness.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
The heaviness, heaviness.
Speaker 8 (37:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (37:48):
Then we went in another part of the cemetery where
apparently her mother had seen this guy standing there in
an old nineteen thirties type suit smoking a cigarette. We
walked by this place and I distinctly smell the cigarette.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Really oh yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 3 (38:02):
And so did Tabitha. She said, can you smell it
and said, yep.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
That's so cool. My mother in law, which was his
dad's long term partner for a while, she actually worked
with the Dolner when they were revamping the Dolnert Museum,
adding on that learning center and section and stuff. So
she helped them set up the gift shop. And she
would always like go downstairs and she'd always you know, whatever,
(38:28):
And she said quite often she would smell Hugh John
McDonald's cigar smoke in his study, Like, I mean that
was over one hundred years ago, but she could smell
it in the house, you know, like certain things still
just kind of there.
Speaker 4 (38:42):
You know.
Speaker 8 (38:43):
I wish I would have had the money at the
time to buy the Masonic Center before it got torn down.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
Yeah, yeah, because that would be a prime.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
Oh totally cool. Yeah for sure.
Speaker 8 (38:53):
I mean from what you hear about, and yeah, how
many people come and gone through that place and couldn't
keep it.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Yeah, absolutely, just like Hamilton House is up for sale
right now, but just asking a lot of money, right
Hamilton host, do you know of Hamilton House? Short, that's
the one where they did all the spiritualism, the seances
moved back in the right there. Yeah, it's up for
sale again. It's a shame because it never had historic
(39:20):
right designation, so it's just like who knows what's going
to happen that right If a person.
Speaker 8 (39:25):
Only had the money, like I say that Masonic Center,
that that would have made such a perfect museum of
that electic stuff.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Yeah, for sure, for sure. What is your name? We've
been chatting, Kelly. I'm Jazz.
