DTCP 020 - The Haunting of Goblin Hollow

Send us a text, tell us your canadian creepy!In this haunting installment of Down the Crooked Path, we revisit one of Prince Edward Island’s darkest unsolved crimes: the murder of Ann Beaton in 1859. Struck down on her walk home, Ann’s story blurred almost immediately into legend—her death investigated with a strange ritual, her memory carried in whispered ballads, and her spirit said to linger still.Who killed Ann Beaton, and why has the truth remained buried for over 160 years? Was she the victim of a jealous hand, a random act of violence, or something darker that the community could never quite name?Join us as we trace the history, folklore, and chilling encounters along Goblin Hollow—the lonely stretch of road where engines stall, shadows move in the mist, and a grieving figure is said to appear before vanishing back into the fog. Because some roads don’t just lead through the past… they refuse to let it go. Your next creepy obsession starts here. 🧁 This episode is brought to you by Icing Sugar Photography — capturing the sweet, the spontaneous, and the story behind every smile.
