The Great Amherst Mystery – Hunting the Haunted

It’s time for the first 2022 episode of the Paranormal Network video series Hunting the Haunted, and in this one our paranormal investigators are tackling the story of The Great Amherst Mystery, a notorious Canadian poltergeist case that took place in Amherst, Nova Scotia, all the way back in 1878. This haunting got so much publicity that it drew in a man named Walter Hubbell, who kept a diary of the paranormal activity he witnessed – a diary that was later expanded and published as a book that sold at least 55,000 copies.

Hunting the Haunted is a monthly exploration of

alleged paranormal activity hosted by investigators and researchers Jason Hewlett and Peter Renn. The two combine their knowledge of hauntings and paranormal investigation to well known, and lesser known, reports of people, places and things that are haunted. The show dissects everything from The Amityville Haunting and The Enfield Poltergeist, to cases Peter has investigated during his 27 years in the field. Jason and Peter also touch on other aspects of the paranormal, including equipment, hoaxes and natural explanations for alleged activity.

The show is edited by Jason D. Morris. This episode was written by Jason Hewlett. Hunting the Haunted is Produced by Jason Hewlett and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.
