The leaves are changing and fall is upon us. I love autumn, especially on the island with the colours and smells of the harvest season. Beautiful orange pumpkins, colourful gourds and ornamental corn adorn the farmers markets reminding us that summer is over and winter is drawing near. But before winter settles in with its rolling mist and the sound of foghorns echoing from the harbour, we celebrate halloween and to me it is a big part of the seasonal transition from fall to winter.
In celebration of halloween I have found a webpage called Living Library – Haunted Locations on Vancouver Island . This page has plenty of stories steeped in the history of the island. From indigenous folklore to haunted tales of untimely deaths and wandering souls. Whether your a believer or a skeptic this site offers up some interesting story telling which you may want to check out…just don’t do it after dark.
