Update May 2009

"My wife and I just returned from a very romantic and relaxing overnight trip to the beautiful hills of Grafton, Ontario. St. Anne's Country Inn and Spa with one of the best and most friendly staff ever encountered. Interesting enough, tranquility and relaxation was not the only natural phenomena we experienced; there was an un-natural one as well.

At around 12:30 am, after a full day of aqua therapies, saunas and exquisite meals, we decided to return to our cozy Victorian room, also known as the Blue room. It is located in one of the oldest part of the building. The room itself was very simple, and tastefully decorated. The stairs leading to the room, were exactly like those described in any gothic novel; very beautiful and at the same time, rather mysterious. Its walls boasted a few antique portraits. One in particular, gave us the chills. The picture was that of a little girl and her cat.

As you could imagine, as soon as we hit the pillow we both fell asleep. Later on, wife and I were woken by a very loud sound as if someone was coming up the stairs. As I looked over to the alarm clock, it was exactly 2:29 am.

Fully awake and full of excitement, I decided to quickly open the door. At that moment, my mind wanted it to be just a hotel visitor returning to his/her room, but my eyes on the other hand, wanted to see something else.

They were both wrong.

As I opened the door nothing was there. My wife panicked and decided to spent the rest of the night with the lights on and the pillow covering her ears. Myself on the other hand, fell asleep very fast with the only thought on my mind. Believing that for the first time I have experienced paranormal activity.

Even though it was a somewhat scary moment, at no time did we fell threatened, it was just like being visited by a very friendly ghost.

We will certainly be back!"
