DTCP 026 - The Five Fishermen: Haunted by the Tide Artwork

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.

DTCP 026 - The Five Fishermen: Haunted by the Tide

On this episode of Down the Crooked Path, we head to Halifax, Nova Scotia—where the sea isn’t the only thing that refuses to rest.

Once a funeral home, now a fine dining landmark, the Five Fishermen Restaurant has served generations of guests… both living and otherwise. From flickering lights and moving cutlery to ghostly reflections in the mirrors, this historic building carries the weight of Halifax’s most tragic days.

Some say the spirits of Titanic victims still linger. Others whisper it’s the sailors, the firemen, the ones who never made it home.

Join us as we explore the stories that ripple through the Five Fishermen—where the past still clings to the walls, and the tide never truly goes out.

🎧 Step inside. Some tables are never really empty.
