Summary

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the eerie elegance of the Fairmont Hotel Macdonald—Edmonton’s historic luxury landmark with a reputation for spectral sightings. From the chilling tale of the ghostly bellman to whispers of a sealed-off room cloaked in mystery, we explore the spine-tingling stories that make this century-old hotel a hotbed of paranormal curiosity.

Was it the restoration that disturbed long-buried spirits? Or is the truth simply buried beneath years of lore and legend? Join us as we navigate creaking hallways, cold spots, and mysterious figures who vanish before your eyes. The ghosts may not sign the guestbook, but they’ve certainly never checked out.
