“Haunted Canada Ghost Stories” is an intriguing collection of stories. The paranormal elements range from curious and questionable to completely creepy. However, the connection to Canada is lacking in the majority of the stories. One story referenced its setting as the Millbrook area, and another mentioned Montreal, but there were no other direct references marking these stories as Canadian. Regardless, this is an intriguing read.

it was an okay intro to youth ghost stories with some morals throughout but overall underwhelming.

I enjoyed the 4th book in this series (the only other one I've read) more, because it had historical facts. This one was more fictionalized.

What the heck did this book have to do with Canada??? I definitely like the other ones in the series as they offer a small history lesson. This one was just boring. Good for early readers though.
