I have recorded farm hands outside discussing going into town to the pub for a dance. You'll want to talk to the spirits by name and character. Here is their history link: https://hallmarkheritagesociety.ca/archives/history-articles/jean-thompsons-craigflower/ https://www.pc.gc.ca/apps/dfhd/page_nhs_eng.aspx?id=94
1:30 PM - 2PM The house is to be left open for you to walk through on your own. I hope you have a fascinating experience.
Meet us as you like back at the picnic and share your ideas and experiences. Beautiful! Goodbye!
If you have the interest and energy investigate the Craigflower school house across the bidge on the other side of the Gorge ! A young native spirit haunted the house for a time after his boxed bones were unearthed on the land. Once the bones were returned the haunted stopped. There are spirits there still.
Also before the school house in the spot under the bridge is where 14 year old Rena Virk was murdered drowned by bullying teens. I don't know if she is there but often tragedy imprints and leaves spirits wanting to talk about their deaths. RIP, Rena Virk. Love and peace.
