The haunted plinth in Place du Canada, once home to a statue of Sir John A. Macdonald, now hosts increased paranormal activity. Erected in 1895, the statue faced protests for Macdonald's genocidal policies. Toppled in 2020, witnesses report heightened ghostly phenomena at the site. Ghost hunters use EMF Readers, detecting unusual readings. Indigenous activists, rallying against Canada's colonial past, find poetic justice in the empty plinth. Today, it serves as a chilling reminder of past atrocities.

In 1742, François-Charles Havard de Beaufort, a French soldier stationed in Montreal, faced trial for sorcery after attempting to use magic to catch a thief. Despite his reputation as a parlor magician, his ritual failed, leading to accusations of profanity. Found guilty, he received a harsh sentence, including public flogging. The trial, condemned by the Church, highlighted the strict religious control in Montreal at the time. Today, it serves as a reminder of past beliefs and punishments.

During the Victorian era, Montreal's Winter Carnival featured ghost stories told amid ice castles, but tragedy struck during the last event in 1889. Guard Ambrose faced ghostly warnings, leading to a fatal fireworks accident. The carnival's demise marked the end of Montreal's Victorian traditions. Today, remnants of the event remain in the city's architecture. With Victoria's death in 1901, Victorian customs waned globally, including Christmas ghost stories. Montreal's vibrant winter activities of the past have faded, leaving behind only memories of its haunted history.
