It is pretty unique for the most part and it involves creatures (assumed to be humans or was) that have evolved in caves.
It is like the catacomb people of Paris (well, or France in general).

Will check that out sometime then.
I watched Knowing, it was a thriller but not gorey like saw or creepy like paranormal activity. It was not that great of a movie really......

The Old Spaghetti Factory in Gastown on Water Street is heralded as one of the premier paranormal hot spots in Vancouver. If you think about it this makes perfect sense as the neighbourhood has a deep history and the restaurant itself is situated over top of an underground railway. It's said that the ghost of a train conductor who died in a train crash sometime at the turn of the century still wanders the restaurant. If you've ever been to The Old Spaghetti Factory you will know that there is a restored trolley in the restaurant, which has become a landmark of sorts as many people snap photos in the trolley. In fact a photo that was taken a long time hints at a ghostly figure at the steps of the trolley. That apparition is believed to be of the train conductor in the deadly crash many moons ago. That photo is hung up at the restaurant so if you're interested too see it, head on over to Gastown. Many witnesses say they have photos that they believe show the ghostly figure as well.
Naturally, stories of the paranormal are always met with heavy skepticism. However, restaurant employees can attest to the eerie vibes they feel, especially after closing time. It is said that he likes to call out the employees by name and is perceived to be a bit shy ghost as he only calls out employees names once they have been working there for a while. The conductor's spirit has been witnessed by many patrons and employees over the years mainly in the restored trolley car and sometimes in the ladies washroom. He seems to be a ghost of the friendly (see Casper) variety just caught in between worlds. So the next time you are in Gastown, head on over to the Old Spaghetti Factory and see for yourself what many have witnessed.
If you like theses haunted stories you might want to check out our story on the haunted house on King Edward and Cambie. Furthermore, the Stanley Park Ghost Train has a combo package with the Old Spaghetti Factory. A natural fit considering the tale we just told you.

It's Halloween time so naturally around this time of the year stories of the paranormal begin to surface. Vancouver seems to be a hot bed for stories of the supernatural. One of these stories centres around a house on King Edward and Cambie, if you live in Vancouver then many of you already know which house I'm talking about. If not it's the blue castle looking house diagonally opposite the new Skytrain station on King Ed.
Apparently sits on an ancient Native Indian burial ground, don't all tales from the dark side start off like this, anyways, legend has it that these Indians souls don't want you disturbing their final resting place. Numerous stories our out there about this particular house and anyone who dares enter it will be met with an unwelcome, eerie unease.
Here are some of the stories that are out there:
The couple, the baby and the crib: One night the new occupants of the house put their baby in its crib. They go back to their rooms and soon after they hear the baby screaming and crying. The couple ran into the nursery to find the baby at the edge of the window sill.
The family that just moved in: A new family just bought the house and finished moving in. After such a horrendous move they were famished and decided to go to dinner to curb their hunger. When they came back their entire luggage and clothes were folded and packed neatly. It was an ominous warning telling they must leave.
The family on the lawn: A new family had just moved in and went to sleep in their new home. The next day they wake up on the lawn with all their boxes and suitcases next them.
The woman in the window: This is from personal experience. I am a firm believer that there are somethings beyond our realm of understanding and capacity of explanation, ghosts and UFO sightings being amongst many others. One day as a teenager I rode my bike to this place; I knew nothing of this place at the time. The house was vacant as a "for sale" sign was up. The Realtor had just finished an open house, locked up and was on her way. I asked if she sold it today and she replied, "no not yet, not much interest in this place if you know what I mean." I nodded my head as if I understood what the hell she was talking about all I knew was the house was vacant at the time. I went back to grab my bike and this lady like figure was seen passing by the top floor window. That freaked me out and I grabbed my bike and got the hell out of dodge.
Is this house haunted? Who knows, but there are many other stories out there about this one particular house and around this time of the year, the stories seem to come out of the woodwork.

One day , my friend who used to love hunting , was in the middle of an immense forest. It was getting dark, and having lost his bearings, he decided to head in one direction until he was clear of the increasingly oppressive foliage. After a what seemed like hours, he came across a cabin in a small clearing. Realizing how dark it had grown, he decided to see if he could stay there for the night. He approached, and found the door ajar. Nobody was inside. He flopped down on the single bed, deciding to explain himself to the owner in the morning. As he looked around, he was suprised to see the walls adorned by many portraits, all painted in incredible detail. Without exception, they appeared to be staring down at him, their features twisted into looks of hatred. Staring back, he grew increasingly uncomfortable. Making a concerted effort to ignore the many hateful faces, he turned to face the wall, and exhausted, he fell into a restless sleep.
The next morning face down in an unfamiliar bed, he turned blinking in unexpected sunlight. Looking up, he discovered that the cabin had no portraits, only windows.

This was about a month ago.
I was up in my room sleeping, until I hear a very loud humming noise from outside at around 4:00 AM. This was loud.. like a radio on a car turned up full blast and bass. I get up and look outside, but I see absolutely nothing. No cars on the street except for the ones parked, and no one outside. It sounded like it was coming from above though. I kept looking, and the monotone humming just kept going. It slowly became quieter and quieter, then I fell back asleep.
That was one hell of an odd night.

I dont know exactly when the haunting began or ended, I have heard of it though. I go there when i was a kid every Saturday. This is at least 12 years ago, when i was 8 or so. Everyone has to wear a gray robe there. Its uncomfortable, especially around the shoulder and neck. X.x
All we did was play games with friends, watch movies, eat a free dinner, listen to the elders tells stories. I never noticed anything strange or weird. I don't go there often anymore since I entered Gr 11 in high school. Maybe a couple times a year on special occasions.

I would always wake up to the sounds of feet scattering around my bed like little children were playing a game of tag around the bed. I would never see them but I could hear them. They would stop and start again close my eyes, fall back asleep and awake to the sounds of childrens laughter. That was the last straw. I thought I was going crazy but it was going on for quite some time. Told my parents and the monks came.
A few weeks later, we moved out of that house. I was the last one out and I distinctively remember turning off all the lights. I drive back later that night and all the lights are back on! Me and buddy go in the house and expect for any forced entries ... didn't find any so we turned them all off again. We leave for some dinner and come back and ALL the lights were back on again!! Called my parents and my sister and they tell me no one has been back to that house except me.
We find out that the people who had bought that house moved right the fuck out a month later. |
fuck that is fuckin scary
good thing i'm gonna go get hammed tonight and hopefully i can forget about that
if i was u, i probably woulda shit my pants

What's it like inside?? Are you allowed to sneak some pics? I'm so curious.
