As a teacher of Canadian History, I find this presentation most fascinating and full of folklore and tales most history books don't even touch. Thank you, sir.

Thank you for introducing me to mythical, historical and mysterious P.E.I. narratives pre-dating Anne of Green Gables.

Brilliant Doc!! I have been looking forward to this video since watching your sneak peak the other day. My Acadian ancestors; besides the migmaw natives of course, were the first settlers on Ile St Jean circa 1720. Michel Hache dit Gallant and Anne Cormier. They moved their whole family from Beaubasin (Amhurst, N.S.) to Port Lajoye, Ile St Jean, modern day Rocky Point, PEI. There is a monument at Rocky Point dedicated to my ancestors Michel and Anne in honor of their founding. Not unlike most Maritimers' I love the island, for us it holds a very special place in all our hearts. But as an Acadian Maritimer', descending from the Hache Gallant line, there is an even deeper love of P.E. Island. An unbreakable familiar connection that keeps me wanting to go back time and time again. I'm from the Ile of Cape Breton and like PEI it too has a trove of folklore, legend and enchanting tales. One example, Our Gale, Acadian, and Migmaw ancestors passed down throughout the generations stories that told of the 'little people', 'changelings or the fay they are dwellers of the mossy woodland and the tales are endless. There are stories of Sea monsters, enchanted forest groves supernatural portals to the beyond and the countless tales of ghost ships and haunted lighthouses. Please consider doing something on Cape Breton. I promise you, you won't be disappointed and you won't be hard up for documented stories and legends of Cape Breton. Thanks for the well researched and interesting content you create and share on your channel. I Love your stuff and hope you keep creating. Peace and Love

I absolutely LOVE your videos Hammerson. No other narration, animation & music come close. The history you tell is amazing and is little known in the US. Thanks for your content.

Thanks so much for this, some of these I've heard before but some I've never heard tell of. As an "Oilander" lol born and raised it's fantastic to hear these tales. I did see the burning ship off of Borden one fall evening. Scared the bejeesus out of me and my friend as we sat on the bank. We were around 12 or so and yaking like a couple of banshees when it came into view. We both shut up real quick and just stared at it. Not sure which of us spoke first "do you??" .... "Yup, let's not talk about this again". Figured we'd be called crazy and teased for the rest of our lives.

These stories are going to be great for the drive to the launch site. They are interesting and thought provoking but not to scary for sleeping in the woods. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into these videos. They will definitely put us into the mood for traveling into a wilderness with such rich legends!

Please avoid the word "kid", it literally means goatoffspring, satanists worship the goat, it's a satanic psyop referring to GOAT of Mendes or BAPHOMET. Humans have CHILDREN. It's all about (mockery of) Scripture. Matthew 25:31-46: "But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the GOATS. ----------- Wouldn' t it be more logic if followers of Jesus Christ called their children LAMBS!? Updated with additional info!: The first use in the English language for “kid” as an identifier of a child is - “It was considered informal English by the mid-19th century and is now in common use. The kids' referred to when the word first referred to children were sold by criminals to sea captains who took them to British colonies as labourers or slaves. They were also youngsters enlisted by British sailors or soldiers.”

As much as I enjoy good story telling, yours are a unique and well versed selection of historical references that many can escape into. Thank you so very much for all you do. Really appreciate your way of telling a great collection of mystique that delves into folklore, supernatural and historical tales of the Canadian people.

I’ve been looking forwards to this!

Thank you!!!!!

Outstanding, simply outstanding.

Very well done. I believe there is a kernel of truth in these old tales. Sad that our contemporary folk discount them. By doing so many sometimes imply that our ancestors were liars . This I find very offensive. The fact a tale has been told and retold over many generations lends strength to its credibility. It does not undermine it as our modern skeptics seem to infer. And with that thought, I must fall off to sleepy bye land. Good Night you ancient mariners.

Thanks again ! Absolutely Love your work!!!

The Ghost of the Burning Ship story, triggered a memory of when i was a small child of 6yrs old. My mother spotted the ship sailing and burning coming into the Georgetown harbour, in Prince Edward IslandShe called all us kids, 6 of us, to the window and we all watched it .As it burned , i could see the sails on fire and shadows of people jumping into the water. It burned right down to just fire on top of the water and then it disappeared. I had no idea it was seen off pictou island and murray river until now. The year i seen it , was 1965. Odd that no one else in my area documented it.

Will definitely be back to watch this this weekend!

I'd love to hear more of these Tweedlers, what they looked like and how they lived, any Info on them?
