Haunted Victoria Golf Club

(Ghostly Walks at the Haunted Victoria Golf Club)

Haunted Victoria Golf Club

1110 Beach Drive, Victoria, B.C.

Things or those who go bump in a Canadian night are not limited to buildings. They can in fact haunt just about anything or anywhere they chose. This world is their playground or in this case, their golf course – Victoria Golf Club, located at 1110 Beach Drive Victoria, BC, which was established in 1893. It is the oldest golf club in Canada and is still on its original site, overlooking the Strait of Juan de Fuca in the Municipality of Oak Bay.

The club is home to some 1,150 golfing and social members. The 35,000 sq. ft. clubhouse was completely renovated and updated in 1993. It is open year-round and offers a wide range of casual and fine dining facilities for receptions, large dinner dances and other special events. Some of these events might just be of the paranormal kind.

On September 22, 1936 Doris Gravlin a 30-year-old nurse went out for a stroll one night by her separated husband Victor, a hard-drinking journalist husband. It’s not clear as to why they were out for a late night walk on the 7th fairway but one thing is certain. Her body was found under some logs severely beaten and strangled by the hands of Victor. Victor committed suicide by taking a stroll into the ocean.

A caddy at the club found her body five days later, while Victor’s body exactly four weeks later, was found floating in a bed of kelp just off the shore of the golf course with her shoes in his pockets. With the discovery of Victor’s body, the case was officially closed as a murder-suicide.

“Her ghost is considered the most frequently seen ghost in this area. People who go ghost hunting will probably look for her ghost”, stated *John Adams of Ghostly Walks tours, Victoria BC. “She appears as a figure in white moving very quickly towards you and then veering away and suddenly disappearing or running circles around groups of people and then basically pinning them inside her circle. She sometimes appears as a large globe of light which will move and fly up over you. She sometimes appears as a figure that runs and flies up in the air. She has been seen ever since her murder in 1936.”

About a year ago, grandparents had their grand children Billy and Lisa (not real names) visit from out of town. John (not real name) took his grandson Billy fishing down by the rocky sea shore. John received a fish hook in the head and the two went to the emergency ward at the nearby hospital.

Billy informed his grandfather that they forgot the tackle box. Later the four of them grandpa, grandma and two grandchildren went out to retrieve the box. After the two men got the box, they saw a figure in white heading towards them rather quickly. Suddenly the figure jumped up and flew over them. They then saw the figure running towards the edge of the golf course then looping back towards the car.

By the time they got back to the car Lisa was in hysterics since she had seen the figure as well. The grandparents knew who the figure was and all four seen the ghost, explained Adams.

If you ever play the seventh fairway call “fore” twice. Once for the people you can see and once for those that go bump in a Canadian night.

*John Adams, one of Victoria’s foremost historians and storytellers, who has been leading ghost tours through the alleys and haunted places of Victoria since 1970. He has appeared on the TV series Ghosts and Ghoulies and on OLN’s Creepy Canada. The tours are conducted by John and his team of expert guides.

Oak Bay’s Victoria Golf Club wears its history in a mantle of weathered brick, leaded carriage lights and elegant woodwork. It’s quiet, dignified and quite exclusive. The club, after all, used the traditional blackball system to vet new members for more than 100 years and even today its 660 golfing members are a fairly elite group.

However, it’s not the living golfers that concern me tonight. I’ve come to determine if the club has some uninvited, less corporeal guests.

It all began as a bit of a lark, I was asked to set up a feature story wherein a famous haunting is checked out just before Halloween. Do the investigation and write up a fun feature for the holiday. But things took an unexpected turn as I did the background for the story. I talked to staff at the club and while some were dismissive, others grew very sombre, recounting their own strange experiences inside the building.

Disappearance Object Phenomenon (DOP)

Posted by admin on November 4, 2012
Posted in: Articles, Paranormal News. Tagged: Disappearance Object Phenomenon, DOP. Leave a Comment
Disappearance Object Phenomenon – What Is It? by JURAJ SIPOS
Article Posted: 09/25/2011

The article describes a paranormal phenomenon of appearance and disappearance of objects – DOP (Disappearance Object Phenomenon) – and it tries to find a link between it and a religion. Described are also a few author’s experiences with DOP. The author suggests that it may be related to Mother Divine (Hindu Goddess Durga). Her other name is Agartha and some say that she may live in the Earth.

Disappearance Object Phenomenon (DOP)

There are many paranormal phenomena described in books but it is hard to say what to believe. In case things are true but misinterpreted (deformed), this brings another problem.

If you go to court to bear evidence, the judges and the police always approach you in faith that you are a witness and that as a witness you tell the truth. You also deserve a respect for bringing your evidence. If you do not tell the truth, you are a product of the world’s conscience crisis – the case of many media and paranormal books that lie.

This article is about Disappearance Object Phenomenon, which I have been experiencing for really a long time and I bear evidence that it exists as something very weird that science cannot explain, as it is prejudiced and it neglects phenomena it cannot measure; on the other hand, these phenomena exist and ignoring them (not only DOP, there are many such weird phenomena – for example, Spontaneous Human Combustion) means going backwards. Contrary to bearing evidence at courts, with DOP you have no respect as a witness and this society will mercilessly knock you down to the ground. Most scientists basically rule such phenomena out of the menu of real possibilities, although every police report of a Spontaneous Human Combustion case leaves clear evidence behind.

You may object that science needs proofs, but I say that it also needs genuine intelligence. I received a few e-mails from someone who claimed that he was “the resurrected Prophet of the Most High, St. John the Baptist,” so I wrote him and asked to write me again the same but in the Aramaic language. If you do this with people like these, your “scientific proof” is that you will most probably never receive back an e-mail in the Aramaic language, as it is much more difficult to learn it than just to say that “I am the resurrected Prophet”. DOP has its place in science with genuine intelligence, although the non-intelligent science does not consider it real.

Over many years, DOP has also been observed in the Bermuda Triangle, in the Japan’s Dragon’s Triangle, and many witnesses, too, bear evidence of its existence. However, the problem is that DOP is one of the most arcane phenomena to approach and it thus almost always gets bundled up into the following types of explanation: It is caused by 1) people’s absentmindedness; 2) somnambulence; 3) temporary mind blackouts; 4) “borrower” type of people around. But if you experience it and suddenly realize, like me, that beyond your DOP is logic, the much weirder apples reveal themselves in the mists of the yet unknown border.

Some explanations of DOP may be even weirder. I remember that when my physician gave me pills and they made me feel even sicker, they simply disappeared (as many thousands of other things in the past did and in the similar context). The logic of this is that “someone” did not want me to be harmed, so I understood that my DOP has logic – communication.

Of many of my DOP experiences, one was related to my necklace of Lord Ganesh, which disappeared on the day of Lord Ganesha’s birthday (September 7, 2005). The probability explanation rather favors DOP (absentmindedness is not DOP), as the year has 365 days and only 1 day of the year is dedicated to the Lord Ganesha’s birthday. Had it happened on any other day, I would have believed it was my absentmindedness. When I found the necklace after several days – although I searched for it very meticulously – I already knew that the number of the days between the disappearance and the appearance was a spiritual (cryptographic) message. DOP helped me to understand that the universe is more arcane than it appears.

The Bermuda Triangle In Slovakia

The following is divided into two parts – 1) personal account (a paranormal story), and 2) Tribec – the Slovakia’s Bermuda Triangle.

1) Personal account

I have a friend, a Himalayan climber (Fero Kele is his name; check please his website – www.kele.sk – however, it is in Slovak, not in English, as translators are very expensive these days). He also led the first Czechoslovak expedition to Mount Everest (1984). I had met him overseas a really long time ago, where he had visited me on his journey around the world. After I returned home, we sometimes meet as friends. One our meeting occurred in autumn in 1988 (October) at Fero’s workplace. His workplace was near mine and we both sometimes exploited our lunchtime this way. I did not want to return late to my workplace, so I looked at his watch all the time, as I did not have any wristwatch. This made him a little bit nervous. He suddenly took off his watch and gave it to me.

My first impression was that he was joking. When he persisted that I keep his watch, I decided to keep it, although he surprised me very much (with his kindness). Here the first part of the story ends and the second begins.

A month later, he phoned me and suggested a meeting. I agreed, but I knew that there must have been a reason, as one month was a short time interval between our meetings. We usually meet after much longer intervals. This time we met at his home. He made me tea and then, for about half an hour, he kept asking me whether we were really alone at the time he gave me his watch. He looked anxious, or even frightened. Fero kept asking me if anybody could listen to us. I am sure that all Feros’ co-workers went out for lunch that day. Had I seen any third party there, I would have certainly told Fero about it, as it was a small office with three or four rooms only.

I had no idea why he asked me the same question so many times. Then he suddenly got up, went away to another room and returned with something in his hand. Bejesus, it was the same watch he gave me when we were in his office! I was looking at exactly the same watch I had on my hand.

What actually happened, he said, was that after about a week he found the same watch on the table at his office. His watch must have appeared there from heaven! The face of AOP is spooky, too.

2) Tribec – the Slovakia’s Bermuda Triangle

The list of people who are reported to have disappeared in the Slovak mountain range called Tribec grows. The difference between “just a disappearance” (that is, anywhere) and “a disappearance associated with a certain place” is very important in this article, as it makes the place look spooky.

We can explain a number of disappearances by simply saying that, for example, “he was just a boy”. Some people disappear from their own will and some do not. Many young people feel really like “big boys” (or “big girls”?) and they often leave their parents without saying them a word. If some offenders are behind disappearances of people, they leave at least some psychological traces behind, or some logical clues (sexual or financial motive, etc.).

You will be surprised to learn that quite a number of people behave strangely. However, finding a car (of someone who was on his way back home to his family) with several thousand dollars in it is in opposition to logic. This is Tribec. It is the place where behavior of strange people disappears together with the people.

Tribec, a wider country area, is part of the mountain range in Slovakia, and Slovak cities Trencín, Topolcany, Partizánske, Nitra, and Zlaté Moravce surround it. The satellite picture of Tribec will tell you that it has the face of a triangle elongation that extends into the Danubian Lowland. Some eight castles / relics of castles are in Tribec – the most famous of them is Gymes, which was built around the year 1253. Black Castle (built at the end of 13th century) is black as it sounds and also as it looks. The castle, built most probably on a much older prehistoric fortification site, is mentioned only in one historical document from 1516, when the Forgac family asked King for permission to wash gold in the region.

As I am interested in paranormal phenomena, I sometimes search the Internet and I keep updating my collection of them. One such “Internet excursion” led me to a source that was not wedged into any “New Age music”, so I decided to pay more attention to it. What I found was mostly information from someone’s travel diary – a personal homepage without any special focus on paranormal topics. This made me believe it was a source worth to get familiar with. The author informs readers about his travel experiences, but one particular page of his travel diary was dedicated to paranormal phenomena. I checked the information in other sources and found that they confirm the stories.

My website in the Slovak language (click on DOP) has more information on the matter than my English version of it – use Google translate and prepare to fall down from your chair. The link to the above source is at the bottom of my page (DOP).

I found that the disappearance object phenomenon (DOP) in relation to Tribec has its record already in the year 1250 when a guy reported that his building material constantly disappeared in the region.

People here have disappeared throughout a longer period of time, but I do not have all the relevant newspaper postings at hand, so all I can say is that the first such a case (mentioned in the above-mentioned travel-focused source) is reported to have happened in the year 1929 when, in a very tough winter (end of November), a 47-year-old forester (Mr. Samasly) disappeared here. The police searched the place afterwards, as the forester’s neighbors reported that Mr. Samasly vanished.

In December 1930, a family from a village in Tribec reported a similar case of inexplicable disappearance. A mother sent her 18-year-old daughter to a nearby village with food. Maria, her daughter, has never come back.

Although the same source about disappearances in Tribec contains a bigger list of persons who disappeared here, one of the cases is really striking. One day in 1995, the police stopped their car here near a bungalow court on their random patrol, as they saw an unmanned BMW parking just near the road (near a village in Tribec). They stopped here only because the car looked like it had slipped off the hill. The BMW was empty (the car was not locked) and the police found a lot of money in it (thousands of dollars). The police decided to wait for its driver but when he did not return in more than two hours, they gave up. He has never returned. This case of disappearance has never been solved either.

The list is surely bigger, but I think that only a few people associate these disappearances with the mystical power of Tribec and most newspaper postings about disappearances of people in Tribec remain consequently unnoticed – that is, the relationship between Tribec and these disappearances.

Although the police have a similar case (and cases) on their records from the region when they found an empty car in a village in Tribec in 1966 (two people disappeared and nobody has ever seen them since then), all these accounts have a few things in common – the disappearances in Tribec mostly occur in winter; no one has ever explained them; there is no record of violence; and all information about them is based on police data of missing persons. No esoteric soup, no New Age.

I was surprised to learn that Slovakia has its own Bermuda Triangle and the “Bermuda People” I happily share this information with the public. The winter is knocking on the door.

Paranormal Equipment and Paranormal Investigation

If you have identified conflicting info as soon as all of the paranormal investigations have been completed then you really should critical consider about getting some specialized gear. Firstly I would make investments some funds in an EMF meter to judge electro magnetic fields in the location, I would also invest in yet another video clip digital camera with a significant battery lifestyle so it can be left on in one area through an investigation.

Finding paranormal data can be really exciting, even though it is however difficult to be taken incredibly seriously in the scientific communities. Try an obtain as a lot info as achievable before actually presenting it in public, have all of the details professionally presented and quickly viewable with a record of all of the paranormal investigating equipment that was utilized.

Paranormal investigators generally consider their do the job significantly, they are usually look employing a selection of diverse resources to aid them in their duties. Paranormal events are very complex and they are believed to bring about electricity disturbance across the electromagnetic spectrum. Some of the devices regularly made use of by investigators in unearthing paranormal activities are:

Kinds Of Paranormal Research Equipment

Under is a checklist of machines that most critical paranormal investigators use to conduct profitable ghost hunting research.

EMF detectors: There are quite simply three types of instruments that are constructed into EMF detectors electric field, magnetic field and radio frequency meters.

Temperature sensors: these are pretty suitable given that cold spots act as proof every time there is depletion of power as a consequence of paranormal events, and due to the fact cold spots move quickly then an infrared digital thermometer is more ideal.

Static energy & Ionization detector: Simply because paranormal activity is very likely to ionize bordering forming ions. Paranormal Investigators and ghost hunters theorize that ghosts and spirits disrupt EMF and can induce bleeps on the detector. Higher EMF readings in spots exactly where there are several electrical gadgets can be indicators of possibilities paranormal activity. If there are a good deal of electrical gadgets however, it might rule out the presence of ghosts and spirits.

Other Ghost Hunter Equipment

The over ghost hunter resources and machines are just the basic kit utilized by paranormal investigators. There are other specialized gear and ghost hunting computer software that are just as advantageous and crucial for the good results of your venture.

You don’t require to expend hundreds of bucks on paranormal investigation equipment to be able to conduct a proper investigation. Most things you need you will have just lying all-around the dwelling. To make a success of your paranormal analysis and ideally obtain some thing new you will need to be well ready and organised just before starting up your investigation. The major 5 items you will have to have are: a torch, an analogue or digital recorder, a camera, a watch and a personal pc with the suitable computer software.

1. The right torch

Choosing a torch is quick, every person has a single. Just make guaranteed that the torch you have is potent plenty of to light up whole backgrounds and isn’t going to just have a narrow beam.

2. Analogue and digital recorders

Most folks will have these just around the house.

Looking for the exact paranormal investigation tools is the initial step, yet combining both paranormal equipment and paranormal investigation is a bit harder. For more important details visit http://www.riphunters.com online.

Connecting the Dots of the Paranormal: Ghosts and Reincarnation

Posted by admin on November 4, 2012
Posted in: Paranormal News. Leave a Comment

by: Robert Kreuk

Ghosts are probably the most known paranormal phenomenon with the UFO category gaining on it everyday. While it’s hard to understand or know why a ghost is somewhere or haunting a location, I think it’s easier to figure out what it is than what business the entity might have.

This seems to be one of the easier lines to connect since it’s almost obvious how to get from ghosts to reincarnation. If ghosts are the lost or still departing souls of the once living, then perhaps they stick around for awhile. After the soul finishes what it still needs to do in it’s current life it moves on. We have no idea of knowing how long a soul will stay around once it’s left a body. Some ghosts are reported for hundreds of years, others seem to fade fairly quickly.

Edgar Cayce touched on a spirit’s journey throughout lifetimes. How skills and talents we have now are the results of past lives. In our life, we are here to try and find a “karmic” balance for the lessons we learn now for those we didn’t learn, haven’t learned, or still need to learn. The lingering spirit, after death, still possibly be someone looking to close a karmic gap that they incarnated to do in this lifetime.

To those that access the Akashic Records, or Book of Life, they’ll find information about a person across several lifetimes, which Cayce often used to diagnose ailments with those who sought him for readings. So, in the line, a ghost could be what we figured it was, a spirit still looking to finish some business in their life before moving on.

One more possibly comes to mind that a ghost is the collective conscious of the people leaving an imprint in reality of a person’s past existence. With thought creating so much reality everyday, it could have the power to leave a visual, if hazy, representation of the spirit in question. Since everyone will imagine the spirit entity a different way, solid details are sometimes lost. This is hard to prove, of course, but after looking into thoughtforms and their effect on us, it might be possible some ghosts are the result of it.

I’ve wondered as well, why we only have fairly modern day ghosts. There are no reports of an ancient Roman entity or Mongol spirit for example. This leads me to believe that the spirits only affect those of the lifetime of the being they incarnate as, when the moment is passed, they move on to another lifetime to balance their karma. Having none living to learn their life’s lessons, they would probably be forced to reincarnate and start over, either having to relearn the past lesson, or a completely one.

This is, at best, mostly speculation. The rest of the connecting dots for ghosts must reside in the metaphysical arts and possibly Eastern religions, new and old, which seemed to have a better grasp of the life and death cycle.

Rona and Ben Go to Victoria to Look for Ghosts

Posted by admin on May 17, 2012
Posted in: Paranormal News. Leave a Comment

In March 2006, Ben and Rona went to Victoria, B.C. for a vacation and a chance to check out all the haunted places it has. We stayed in the Bedford Regency, for 2 nights in the suite that is purported to be haunted by a woman ( a mobster’s girlfriend). I felt no presence of a woman there but did get an interesting picture in the sitting room of something… There definitely was a presence in the hallway, however. I constantly heard things going on, such as footsteps outside and someone near the door, and then when I would go to the door to look, nothing was there.

Christmas eve sighting in car

One Christmas eve night I was out doing last minutes late shopping with my mother when I was 15 years old. Then after the shopping was done we got into the car, and drove off. When we were in the car, we looked up and saw every color imaginable and claimed it had to be an airplane. How could an airplane have every color imaginable? My mother and I then decided it wasn’t an airplane…it was something else. I told her it was Santa’s slay because it was soo close above us. She thought we were going nuts, but I believe we saw something like no other till this day and I am 18 years old now.
