Canadian Creepies
Welcome to Canadian Creepies—the podcast that digs into the dark corners of Canada’s past and present. Your hosts Valerie, Ali, Amanda Joy ( host of Down the Crooked Path), and sometimes Kyle explore the true crime cases that haunt us, the paranormal encounters that make us question what’s real, and the unsettling folklore that lingers just out of sight.
From cults to cold cases, ghosts to government cover-ups, we don’t just tell the stories—we ask why they still matter.
It’s creepy. It’s Canadian. And it’s probably going to keep you up at night.

🚂🌌 This week on Down the Crooked Path: The Phantom Train of Canada 🌌🚂
All aboard for one of Alberta’s eeriest legends. In this episode, we travel to Medicine Hat to uncover the chilling stories of a phantom train said to thunder through the night—long after the tracks went quiet.
Locals have spoken of ghostly lights on abandoned lines, the distant wail of a whistle that never comes, and spectral engines roaring past unseen. We’ll dig into the railway history of Medicine Hat, explore possible explanations for these persistent sightings, and ask why ghost trains hold such power over our imaginations.
Is it a memory of tragedy? A trick of the prairie night? Or something more mysterious riding the rails forever?
Join us Down the Crooked Path as we chase the ghostly glow of the Phantom Train of Medicine Hat.
🎧 Listen if you dare—and watch the tracks behind you.
