Hey great thread!!
We've got a bunch here in Ottawa! I went on the 'Haunted Walk' downtown and found out a bunch of cool stories!
There's this one in the museum of Nature. In the main hallway if you look up you can see all the way up to the top floor because there is a hallway you can walk around with a railing on all the floors. Anyway, legend has it that a janitor once jumped off the top floor railing and suceeded his suicide; so now he can be seen late at night wandering the top floor hallway.... oooeeeooooo! (plus I had to spend the night there when I was a kid in Girl Guides!! Yeek!)
In the Chateau Laurier, a mega fancy hotel almost right beside the Parliament buildings in the heart of downtown Ottawa, there was supposedly a murder on the fifth floor.
Two friends stayed one night there, one on the fifth floor and one in the room directly below on the fourth. The fellow on the fourth floor was awakened by a very loud thud...thud...thud noise coming from above him in the middle of the night. He tried calling his friend on the telephone provided but he kept getting the busy signal. So he threw on his house-coat and ran down the hall to the stairwell.
Halfway up the stairwell he saw a mans figure in a brown tweed suit that looked to be from the thirties climbing up the stairs ahead of him and so he called out to the figure, with no reply. The figure opened the door to the fifth floor and closed it behind him. Right after the door was closed the fellow made it to the fifth floor and he swung open the door and he saw the figure disappear into his friends room.
He went to his friends room and his friend had heard nothing nor seen anything and was sitting in his pajamas with the lights on reading a book because he couldn't sleep. ooooeeeoooo!
I'll post more as I remember them!
