EP8: December 22, 1910 - The Friendliest Ghost That Moans
Episode notes
This Monday on Ghosts of the Gazette: We travel back to December 22, 1910! Kendra tells the story of a gruesome body-in-a-barrel murder mystery that takes us to a man named John McSorley as well as on a long journey from Jarvis, Ontario to the cold eerie streets of Montreal, Quebec. Meanwhile, Blake heads to the Atkinson Homestead in Chicago's Hyde Park, finally uncovering the long-lost ghost story of Myrtle Read that still haunts us more than a century later.
Every Monday, we dig into fascinating stories from the past — all originally reported on the exact same date (though many years ago) as the episode airs. It’s history, headlines, and a touch of mystery, all rolled into your new favourite podcast.
