More historical research underway into old ghosts, old ways, and grand old haunts in Muskoka
My newest efforts to detail the paranormal characteristics of Muskoka involve much more historical research, as left by some of the well known....and some "not so well known" authors from the era of the pioneer homesteads across the hinterland. I’m up to my neck in old books and loving every moment of it. It just feels right to be in the company of so much important heritage about our region, our province and country.
As a first installment of many more entries to come, I have given a brief overview of our region’s first encounters with the spirit tradition. It dates back to the First People’s cultural beliefs in the spirits of earth and the universe, of nature and storm, sky and season. Take a few moments to visit my newly launched website at www.freewebs.com/hauntedmuskoka , and consult the site regularly for more information about the paranormal heritage of the District of Muskoka.
