If you hear the name “Stanley Park”, you might think of a quiet park where you can walk on the seawall in the afternoon, but it is actually one of the most haunted islands in North America.
Deadman’s Island is a place of ancient horror stories. The terrifying phenomena and the ghost sightings report is increasing. There are some loud noises at nights, footsteps, and a screaming of a woman.
Supernatural stories of this island have been existed since a very long time ago…
The island was called “Island of Dead Men” by the Squamish
people a long time ago and known for a battle zone.
The government offered Samuel Brighouse to buy the island in
1860s but he was turned down. However, his friend, John Morton explored the
island anyway.
He explored it with a boat and found a lot of red cedar boxes
left in the braches of the trees. He found out that they were fragile when he
touched it and some long-deceased inhabitant fossils fell out upon him.
There was a serious disease in the 1890s in Vancouver and
the island was used to accommodate the infected people. Having the disease was like
getting a dead sentence because they would only be allowed to go home if they
could heal.
The people living there were mad because they thought the island was still a part of Stanley Park and shouldn’t have been opened for any businesses.
Ludgate headed to the island with his man in 1899 to do the logging but he and his people were arrested instead.
Some exact same things happen until Ludgate’s land lease expired in 1930.
Police occupied the island at nights in 1909 to keep the lodgers away. They said there were some scary noises and skeletons threatening anyone who would do the logging there.
