Fort Edmonton Park Firkins House
Halloween is a great time to bring up this little known fact about myself. I lived in a haunted house – The Fort Edmonton Park Firkins House to be specific. I loved to periodically pop by and visit it, sometimes I even document it in a style editorial. How did I live in a house that is located in a city park? Well, first of all, my family donated it in 1992 and it was carefully moved from the neighbourhood of Belgravia down to the nearby park.

The Stories
Our house has been featured in several publications and tv special. We have yet to be consulted for any of these features so my sister (founder of The Witchery) and I decided to take things into our own hands and tell our stories. First hand. From the people they actually happened to (us).

I’ve made a YouTube video chronicling the most interesting tales from the Firkins House while we resided there in the company of a ghostly presence! My mom was so kind enough to surprise drop by that day and give us more details about the house we grew up in.

So glad that you enjoyed it and thank you for watching. My sister and I love your store!
Hi there! I am a film student at NAIT currently in a documentary course. I am very interested in Firkin’s house and it’s history and hauntings! I may use it as the subject of my documentary, if I go ahead with that would you be interested in appearing in a project of that nature? I would love to hear more from you.
That’s so cool! Thanks for reaching out. I’d be curious to hear more about your project 🙂
