As Halloween approaches, many fans of ghosts, abandoned places and haunted houses are sometimes looking for places that might awaken their fear. Here is a ranking of the provinces where thrills are guaranteed.
To determine which places have the most potential to be haunted in Canada, BonusFinder Canada analyzed the number of memorials, haunted sites, ghost towns, abandoned properties and spider species in each province. .
And unfortunately for Quebecers who love thrills, La Belle Province is last in the ranking and is considered the least haunted province in Canada.
Quebec thus obtains a score of 3 out of 10 for its level of horror, even though there are only four cemeteries per 10,000 inhabitants, 0.01 haunted places and 0.02 ghost towns.
The only way to get a little scared in Quebec, the province is home to almost half of the 1,379 species of spiders found in the country.
So what are the best places for a Halloween-style atmosphere?
• La Saskatchewan
For horror, it is therefore recommended to go much further west, and more precisely to Saskatchewan, where we observe the highest concentration of memorial monuments with 646,895. The province also has a high density of cemeteries with 20 per 10,000 inhabitants.
Stories of haunted houses are also common in the province, where Government House in Regina is said to be haunted by its former ghost guard.
It is also said that the spirits of former soldiers and indigenous peoples are heard at Fort Battleford, where they unfortunately met a tragic fate.
• Newfoundland and Labrador
Newfoundland and Labrador is also full of possibly haunted places and is in second place in this ranking, with 16.5% of unoccupied houses.
It is in this province that we can find the legend of the devil’s footprints, hoof-shaped imprints that are engraved in the rock, a sign of a sinister pact with Satan.
• Nova Scotia
Nova Scotia has nearly 22 cemeteries per 10,000 inhabitants and 218,650 memorials, making it the 3rd most haunted province in Canada.
The most famous ghost story is that of Keith’s Brewery, where it is said that the founder of the brewery can be seen appearing, accompanied by the smell of freshly baked bread.
