THRILLS AND CHILLS

With All Hallows Eve just around the bend, we boarded the Haunted
Vancouver Trolley Tour looking for a real scare.

And squealer than real it was, with detailed accounts of local murders
and crime scene artifacts. Departing from the Vancouver Museum, the tour
takes you to a few of Vancouvers more haunting historical landmarkslike
the famed F.L. Baker residence at 3851 Osler Avenue and Mountain View
Cemetery. It also provides a chilling and scintillating portrait of our
citys darker side, from the unsolved mystery of the Scottish Nightingale
to Stanley Parks Babes in the Woods.

Its the last leg of the tour (pun intended) which stops at the old city
morgue for an autopsy demonstration that will really have you squirming.

Nothing a stiff drink cant cure.
