Exploring Maritime Folklore with It Came From The Maritimes

Timestamps below: Tonight, we are opening the door to the darker side of the Maritimes. This is a place where fog hangs over the coastline, the forests feel a little too quiet, and the past never really lets go. In this episode of The Ghostly Gallery Podcast, we are joined by Evan Carr Kinnear and Chelsea Carr Kinnear, the creators of It Came From The Maritimes, a show devoted to the folklore, mysteries, and paranormal history of Atlantic Canada. We talk about how their podcast began, what inspired them to focus on Maritime legends, and whether they feel a responsibility to preserve these stories before they fade away. Along the way, we explore some of the region’s most chilling tales, including the Cape Breton Hairy Man, Catherine McIntosh’s Grave, the Lunenburg Werewolf, the Vampire of Ingonish, the Curse of the Mary Celeste, Dagger Woods, and the mysterious Forerunners. They do not just tell these stories. They keep them alive. Episode 125 Subscribe to The Ghostly Gallery Podcast for more classic horror movie reviews, discussions, and interviews every week!
