  • #30 - The Serial Killer of Toronto's Gay Village
    Jan 31 2025

    In our thirtieth episode of Unsolved Canadian Mysteries, Christina Koutsi, Dylan Fairman and Kenton de Jong discuss the disappearance and subsequent murders of several men from Toronto's Gay Village during the early 2010s.

    The Toronto Police Service were unequipped to handle these murders and were unfamiliar with the LGBTQA+ community they were taking part in. All signs pointed to a man named Bruce McArthur, but McArthur was a senior citizen, who landscaped for a living and volunteered as Santa Claus in the malls.

    However, as the investigation continued, more of McArthur's life became known to the authorities. From a tough childhood, a messy divorce, bankruptcy, a troubled son, and more than one report of him being violent or aggressive, the police began to wonder if McArthur was involved, and if so, what happened to these missing men. As more and more men went missing, the search continued and the answer seemed further and further from the norm.

    Come learn about a Canadian serial killer like no other!

  • #29 - The Mystery of Charles Coughlin's Coffin
    Dec 5 2024

    In our twenty-ninth episode of Unsolved Canadian Mysteries, Christina Koutsi, Dylan Fairman and Kenton de Jong discuss the life and death of Charles Coughlin, a British actor who is more famous in death than when he was alive.

    Coughlin had a colourful life, from messy marriages, summer homes, a fluctuating acting career, and an unfortunate bankruptcy. However, he is more known for the legend that happened after his passing. While in Texas performing The Royal Box, he became gravely ill and passed after a month of sickness. His body would be interred in a temporary grave in Galveston, Texas while his family discussed what to do with it -- should he be buried at his summer home in PEI, or should he be cremated and buried in New York instead?

    After a year of discussions, nature made the choice for them, and the incredibly deadly Galveston Hurrican of 1901 struck the city, destroying building, killing thousands, and smashing many mausoleums, including the one Charles Coughlin was resting in. His coffin would then be pulled out into the ocean... and the mystery would begin.

    What happened to Charles Coughlin's coffin? Come listen to our new episode and find out!

  • #28 – Paranormal Investigation of The First Wolseley Cemetery
    Oct 31 2024

    In our twenty-eighth episode of Unsolved Canadian Mysteries, Kenton de Jong, Dylan Fairman and Christina Koutsi venture to the First Wolseley Cemetery.

    The cemetery is said to contain the graves of many early Wolseley settlers, men and women, who struggled against all odds to make the town of Wolseley possible. However, most of the wooden graves were lost to a fire in 1905, and the cemetery needed to be abandoned. The town of Wolseley began using a new cemetery instead, and this one was supposedly forgotten. This has created many stories of the cemetery being haunted by intelligent spirits, sounds of growling from the shadows, and a creepy feeling.

    However, when we visited the cemetery, we found it very maintained and in good condition. Many graves were missing, but the cemetery didn't have an uncomfortable vibe. It was a very well taken cared for and respected cemetery.

    Many interesting discoveries were made, but nothing paranormal was recorded... or was there?
    Come watch our second-ever on-location paranormal investigation into the First Wolseley Cemetery!
