Backyard History with Andrew MacLean

Join Backyard History’s Andrew MacLean for a Halloween-season evening of true Maritimes mystery at Greenslades in Sackville, NB, on October 29. In 1922, a quiet farmhouse suddenly burst into chaos. In a single night, 38 unexplained fires erupted inside, terrifying a family and baffling detectives, reporters, and ghost hunters who came to investigate, and attracting interest from quite literally every news outlet in North America. Some blamed ghosts. Others whispered a human at the centre of it all. Come hear the sometimes hilarious, other times unsettling yet completely true ghost story, told with the wit, warmth, and meticulous research that defines Backyard History.
