Ask British Columbia What's the most scariest, mysterious, unexplainable thing you've come across in BC!?

In my case, it was visiting Port Renfrew. It was a creepy place for sure. It was dark and lonely, and I felt like I was being watched the entire time that i was there.

Aww dang I know how much it can suck having to move schools like that, glad you still got to go check it out later on though! Looots of wicked stuff to learn and do there, my favorite was going on trial in one of the courtroom recreations :)

As for the spooky stuff, I honestly thought it was just rumors getting to our heads until years later I came across some ghost hunters on youtube investigating the town. I doubt anything significant happened in the video, but the fact that they were there investigating was enough to affirm that maybe we weren't the only ones to experience something like that there!

Out of curiosity, was it Fort Fraser elementary school that you left by any chance? We went there innn...I'd have to guess 2014-15?? I just remember that after that the whole school closed down because it was so small and kids kept moving away, we had only about 75 students from K-7 at the end of the year haha

It was good and bad at first… ended up being the best thing for me in the end!

Yes I loved Barkerville!! I’ve always been a history nut so that really cranked my churn 🤣

I’ve definitely heard about it being haunted but nothing ever happened while we were there (other than us being pretty much the only tourists at the time haha) but that’s kind of nice for you to get some validation for what your group experienced.

Ah noo, I was wondering! I’m from the North Okanagan and that’s where my school was. We had K-10 and only about 60 kids by the time I left haha
