What People Are Saying About

The Haunting of Vancouver Island

View this post on Instagram

Markus reading (in my late grandmas 1913 heritage home) The Haunting of Vancouver Island by author @shanonsinn. This is a must read/own for ghost enthusiasts who live around or love Vancouver Island. But this book goes deeper than that. It also examines local First Nations stories and beliefs (one dear to me) connected to and around Vancouver Island. The book is entertaining, informative and moving. I’ve always felt secretive about my ghost beliefs and stories because I thought I’d be viewed as ‘weird’. Shanons work inspires us all to have that conversation that we might have felt hesitant to have. It’s helped me to let my own ghosts out of the closet. Love this book and hope you will, too! I shared this on my old Instagram account, and now sharing it on this one! . . #thehauntingofvancouverisland #shanonsinn #author #book #ghosts #legends #lore #firstnations #historical #educational #inspiring #anthology #vancouverisland #vanisle #britishcolumbia #haunting #ghoststory #thrilling #stories #history #victoriabc #craigderrochcastle #hatleycastle #oakbay #rossbaycemetery #reading #relaxing #calm #enthralled

Friends, do yourself a favour and go read this book! I learned so much about this island we call home, and haven’t made it through a book this fast since Harry Potter… And you’re supporting a local author, how rad is that? #hauntingofvancouverisland

@ShanonSinn just finished reading this….thanks for that! As a 1st Nations person, it was great to hear the perspectives and beliefs of my people on such a wonderful topic. Our ppl have many beliefs that need to be shared. pic.twitter.com/YDjTOtECzY

Hello! Hi! Do you know what today is? The day before I get to start decorating for winter festivities. 😂 I got this local book yesterday after months of fearing it. I'm going to read a bit and then probably watch some Hannibal tonight! • Would you rather be a witch/wizard, vampire, werewolf or zombie, in real life? • I'd choose witch. Or maybe vampire, although I don't think I'd like to have to survive on blood. Or want to eat humans… • • • #thehauntingofvancouverisland #shanonsinn #supernatural #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookish #booklover #bookaddict #discordtogethergroup #bookaesthetic #autumnvibes #halloweenreads #bookphotography #bookishcanadians #bibliophile #bookstagrammer

After four months of living in a trailer situated in a car park that had no TV, wifi or running water, I've moved into a fancy new place with a balcony. That calls for a new book since I can now sit in the sun without looking like trailer trash 😂who doesn't want to read about ghost stories on the island you live on! I'll be reading this on my coach journey to Victoria where I'll be taking my language test for permanent residency. Wish me luck! #trailertrashtwedisnomore #thehauntingofvancouverisland #shanonsinn #ucluelet #ukeedaze #westcoast #canada #book #literature #ghoststories
