Canadian Legends & Monsters: Jos the Canadian Lumberjack Legend
Thursday Nov 20, 2025
Thursday Nov 20, 2025
Before Paul Bunyan swung his axe, Canada had its own towering lumberjack legend: Joseph Montferrand, better known as Big Joe Mufferaw.
Tonight, we’re heading deep into the Ottawa Valley to uncover the truth behind the man who supposedly fought off 150 men using one of them as a weapon. From the real Shiners’ Wars and bridge brawls to tall tales that grew into folklore, we’ll separate fact from fable and explore how this French-Canadian hero became one of the country’s most unforgettable legends.
If you love eerie history and homegrown myths, this one’s for you.
Listen now, and don’t forget to grab your free copy of my YQR Haunts: Guide to Regina Ghosts for a look at the real haunted places right here in Saskatchewan.

Before the Hotel Saskatchewan became a luxury landmark hosting royalty and rock stars, it was built from the bones of a failed dream - the steel skeleton of a ghost hotel that never lived. In this episode, we uncover the haunted legacy of one of Regina’s most iconic buildings, from the ballroom dancer who never left the floor to the grieving woman who still waits for her soldier. These are the guests who never checked out.

Canadian Legends + Monsters: The Mystery of Silent, Legless Jerome
Thursday Sep 25, 2025
Thursday Sep 25, 2025
In 1863, a man with no legs was found on the beach at Sandy Cove, Nova Scotia. He never revealed his identity, refused to speak, and lived in silence for over forty years. Locals called him Jerome, and his story became one of Canada’s most enduring legends.
In this episode of ParaGhoul Paranormal, we explore the real history behind Jerome’s discovery, the theories about who he was, and why his mystery still haunts the Maritimes. Was he a war officer, a political exile, or something else entirely?

Local Saskatchewan Haunts: The Haunted Convent of Jesus and Mary, Gravelbourg
Thursday Sep 18, 2025
Thursday Sep 18, 2025
In this episode of ParaGhoul Paranormal, we journey to Gravelbourg, Saskatchewan: a town with deep Francophone roots and one seriously haunted convent. I share the rich history of the Convent of Jesus and Mary, from its founding by the Sisters of Jesus and Mary to its unfortunate decline and closure. You’ll hear chilling tales of ghostly nuns, shadowy figures, and a mysterious girl who may have succumbed to the Spanish flu in 1918. Plus, I share my own strange experience at the Bishop’s Residence next door. Is Gravelbourg’s convent simply a relic of the past? Or is something still lingering in its halls?
Tune in for a haunting blend of history, mystery, and personal storytelling that will leave you wondering what still walks the halls of Gravelbourg’s most iconic building.
