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.

On this episode of Down the Crooked Path, we venture deep beneath the Niagara Region—where the earth hides its secrets in stone and shadow.

From the eerie depths of the Merritton Tunnel to the forgotten bunkers near Decew Falls, these underground passages have long been home to whispers, footsteps, and unexplained lights. Some were built for war, others for industry—but all seem to have inherited something darker.

Join us as we uncover the ghostly legends buried beneath Niagara’s peaceful surface: the tunnels that once carried soldiers, smugglers, and secrets… and now echo with the sounds of the past.

🎧 Step carefully. Some doors in Niagara should never be opened.

Your next creepy obsession starts here.
