Step into the windswept fields of early 1800s Ontario, where a peaceful Scottish settler family found themselves under siege by forces they couldn’t explain. In this episode, we unravel The Baldoon Mystery—Canada’s most famous (and eeriest) tale of witchcraft, curses, and paranormal torment. From phantom bullets and spontaneous fires to the chilling story of the "witch goose," this true Canadian folk haunting blurs the line between folklore and reality.

Was it mass hysteria, an unsolved feud, or something darker still? Travel with us Down The Crooked Path and decide for yourself.

In this episode of Canadian Creepies, we delve into one of Canada's most disturbing and brutal cases—an urban nightmare that gripped Ontario in the 1970s. Christian Magee, later dubbed “The Mad Slasher,” left a trail of violence and confusion in his wake, targeting strangers in chillingly public spaces. But beyond the horror lies a deeper story—one of untreated mental illness, systemic failure, and a society unequipped to respond.

As we unravel Magee’s background, his institutional history, and the terrifying series of attacks, we draw haunting parallels between the mental health system of the 1970s and the one we navigate today. Despite decades of progress, cracks remain—visible in more recent incidents like the 2024 Vancouver stabbing. Through these connections, we explore the recurring patterns of tragedy: how untreated mental illness, lack of community resources, and delayed intervention continue to fuel preventable violence.

This episode isn’t just about a killer. It’s about the systems that allowed him to slip through—and the uncomfortable truth that, in many ways, we're still catching up.

In this episode of Canadian Creepies, we're trading haunted houses for hitmen as we descend into the dark heart of Montreal’s underworld. Meet the Rizzuto Crime Family—Canada’s most powerful mafia dynasty—and uncover how Vito Rizzuto ruled with charm, strategy, and deadly precision.

But when Vito was taken out of the picture, a brutal power struggle erupted. Assassinations, internal betrayals, and public executions tore through the criminal empire, leaving a bloody trail in the streets of Montreal.

Who filled the vacuum? Who pulled the strings from the shadows? And who was left to pick up the pieces?

This is a tale of loyalty, legacy, and lethal ambition.

🔪 Join us as we unpack the rise and fall of the Rizzutos—and the chaos that followed.
