The fire ball of pleasent bay, Cape Breton. Back in the 60's it cam from the north along the west side of the highland mountains, in a southward direction untill it reached the mouth of the harbour, and then shoot up in to the sky

I have a signed copy of Bluenose Ghosts and Bluenose Magic by Dr. Helen Creighton. I knew her personally as did my mum. She graduated from the same school I did ...Halifax Ladies College and I met her at several Loyalist teas and other school functions. As a young girl I lived in a manse that had much supernatural activity in it in Dartmouth , NS. Love your channel and thank you for keeping Nova Scotia folklore alive.

[@moodyguy7302]

I remember reading Bluenose Ghosts in the late 70’s when I was in Grade 6 or 7; the chapter on Demons was absolutely terrifying, yet I couldn’t put the book down and it lead to many sleepless nights.

[@angelashea963]

From Newfoundland but have been living in Dartmouth since 2000 , love these stories

[@maryanneroy7925]

Love folklore, hauntings and stories of Nova Scotia. Looking forward to more.

Growing up in Amherst, we have a ton of folklore here. Especially, Esther Cox.

[@YouPushinPTho]

Alberta support. Keep it up.

[@strangelycanadian]

[@Mac3622]

Never heard of the New Ross ruins or Black Hole Harbour treasure. Thanks for sharing.

[@cheryla7480]

Really interesting! I am from Winnipeg and I love a good mystery. Looking forward to your next one!

[@strangelycanadian]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@Littleone124]

I was so happy to see the great Amherst mystery in this video. I'm from Springhill and outside of Cumberland County, no one really knows about it.

[@strangelycanadian]

So true. The Amherst Mystery has intrigued me since I was a boy. Be sure to take part in Esther Fest starting next week. Look for Esther Fest on facebook for more details.

[@strangelycanadian]

I will be at the paranormal convention on Oct 19 and on the downtown ghost walk on Oct 21

[@lucdeslauriers1021]

Very interesting! Thank you very much from north Québec!

[@BatCaveOz]

Check out the Mary Ellen Spook Farm in Antigonish, NS.

[@Drkush2022]

Digby neck is not a village. As a resident of Freeport NS I can say that it is a peninsula with a good number of separate villages. The story of Gerome originated out of whale cove, on digby neck.

[@strangelycanadian]

I have lived my entire life in Nova Scotia and never heard of Gerome until I found the information for this video. Thanks for clarifying.

[@Mimsyx2]

Sandy Cove

[@dsxa918]

Norm

[@Trigger200284]

@@strangelycanadianI grew up near you in Springhill, I left and now live on the south shore. Gerome only came up in conversation a couple months ago and I’ve been here for a decade. Everyone says they learned about it in school at some point. Most of the people that I know that learned about him are from the municipality of Clare which is French.

[@dougwaites869]

From SW NOVA SCOTIA, enjoyed these stories. Look forward to others.

[@GreatCanadian0844]

Shag Harbour, a very interesting story, What if anything crashed at Shag Harbour, Were two object discovered on the sea bed at the Shelbourne "Oceanographic station (actually a submarine detection post) Why did a soviet sub appear in the area? Why did the USAF have aerial recon flights over the area? What were the two objects seen leaving the ocean at the western tip of Nova Scotia and heading north (to the USAF base in Maine, Russia or space? What about other reliable sources that saw unusual sites in the night sky over Nova Scotia?

[@cbLassie]

Enjoyed all the folklore!

[@deadsilent709]

Hello from NL. 👍

[@strangelycanadian]

Hello there!

[@Steven-wn2vx]

I live close to black hole harbour i can't wait to get a metal detector

[@CuriousNancy]

Like the range of explanations offered so listener can choose the ‘truth’. Us locals enjoy a good yarn.

[@strangelycanadian]

Thanks for commenting

[@randolphrobinson342]

Thanks. I grew up in Amherst. Started school there. Cumberland county and Pugwash. Lots of stories in those areas.

[@strangelycanadian]

I am from Amherst too.

[@LouS-w2r]

My dad and his family are from Pugwash... since, 1700's

[@dsxa918]

"Norm from Amherst", eh?

[@MelissaGenXNews]

I’m a Canadian living in US. I am from New Brunswick but lived in BC for a long time. I collect folklore and have lots of Canadian stuff I have to put out. Glad you made this channel!

[@strangelycanadian]

I love Canadian folklore and history. Thanks for sharing.

[@zoguk]

Have you read Bluenose Ghosts? It's a classic for NS ghost stories.

[@LoneCloudHopper]

There are lots of walls like those in the woods in NS. I came across several in Shelburne County.

[@strangelycanadian]

thanks for commenting.

[@Trigger200284]

Amazon/Mary Celeste??

[@johnalick8179]

You should check out the perdictions of Mother Coo

[@strangelycanadian]

Interesting. I will.

[@whiskeythrottle8680]

You should do research on musquodoboit harbour NS

[@ceciliacrocker390]

Wow, i was just camping at the spot where Jerome's rock is located. Sure wish we knew why he was left on the shore...

[@TylerCorkum-u9r]

Well done

[@LoneCloudHopper]

Sounds like Esther Cox was attacked by a possessed man and that dark entity attached itself to her. But then I don't know much about the case yet.

[@strangelycanadian]

It is an interesting story.

[@aswinv.v8180]

All the best

[@cofeebeing]

Thanks. I knew about staying off the black rock at Peggy's Cove. Bad undertow. A sudden wave with no warning. Its an old province that has had time to collect folklore and bump in the night stuff.

[@maryrafuse2297]

One should not forget to mention Mary Ellen Spook. I hope you have or will cover this fire spook of Caledonia Mills Antigonish County.

[@Joe3pops]

If you locate and read Cape Breton book of the Night, there is an interesting story of one of many paranormal stories, & this one is from Meat Cove 1938ish. A local gentleman in his Ford truck is on an outdoor trip to chop firewood & deer hunt. He encounters a sasquatch. The ending isn't what you expect.

[@dsxa918]

Statutory ape?

[@moodyguy7302]

I remember reading that. His last name was Fraser. Fascinating story.

[@vanessamansfield4252]

I want to thank you for telling the mystery of small Canadian villages/towns/peninsulas, wondering if you plan to do the same history for black communities in Nova Scotia, i know there are some mysteries unknown . Dartmouth ,N>S.

[@strangelycanadian]

Thanks for your comment. I would love to recount some mysteries from the Black community in Nova Scotia and across Canada. I will do some research and perhaps do a video in the future.
