Imagine buying your dream home only to find out it's haunted. That's exactly what happened to Dorah and Ted, and their chilling story is at the heart of this episode of Keeping it Real.
Join me, Jacquie McCarnan, as I recount my own ghostly encounter and shed light on the often-overlooked legal responsibilities realtors face when dealing with stigmatized properties. We'll visit spine-tingling spots like Toronto's Keg Mansion and a notorious house in Vancouver, reminding us all why buyer vigilance is crucial, especially in for-sale-by-owner situations.
Stay tuned as we follow Dora and Ted's emotional rollercoaster—deciding whether to stay in their beautifully restored Victorian home despite its supernatural inhabitants. From consulting psychics to performing cleansing rituals, their journey offers a fascinating glimpse into the intersection of real estate and the paranormal. As they connect with the spirits of past residents and even move forward with new renovations, their story adds a spooky yet heartfelt layer to our exploration of haunted homes in Canada. Don’t miss my personal anecdotes and a special shoutout to a local community event that brings it all full circle.
