Mysterious Alberta
Myths, Murders, Mysteries and Legends
Lisa Wojna

Rife with legends, hauntings, unsolved crimes and unexplained events, Alberta has a dark underbelly:

• Somewhere in southwestern Alberta is a pot of gold known as the Lost Lemon Mine, if you can get past the curse; no one has ever been able to
find the location
• The world-famous Banff Springs Hotel is also the site of one of Alberta’s most famous hauntings—the ghost of a bride walks the halls and dances in the ballroom
• Tales of strange crop circles found pressed into the thistle and barley on a farm near Edmonton in 1999 continue to baffle researchers
• The Atlas Coal Mine near Drumheller has its fair share of strange mysteries—why did a mine manager make sure no one else could access the
contents of the office safe, which remains locked to this day?
• When nature unleashed its fury on the small mountain community of Frank, the story of one special survivor made its way around the world—a
baby girl rescuers named Frankie Slide—but is that the whole story?
• It was called the perfect murder—six men were found dead at their Grande Prairie–area ranches, but not a single shred of concrete evidence
was ever uncovered to reveal their killer
• Jasper residents wondered what was going on at Patricia Lake, but they suspected it was a top-secret World War II project—bring your hiking
boots…and your diving gear if you want to find out!
