For all you hockey fans, on the corner of Yonge and Front St. is the famous Hockey Hall of Fame (30 Yonge St). Even if hockey isn’t your thing, but you’re a confirmed history buff, the HHOF houses decades of trophies and memorabilia.

CAN YOU FIND? At the front of the Hockey Hall of Fame is a silver dollar that commemorates the 25th anniversary of the 1972 Canada / U.S.S.R. Hockey series. What year is the coin?

A SPOOKY STORY:

For more than 60 years, a young girl named Dorothy has haunted the Hockey Hall of Fame. Now, it isn’t her love of Canada’s past time that has kept her attached to the building - this was the location of where she died back in 1953. Before it was a famous museum, the Hockey Hall of Fame was the Bank of Montreal. After her death, the Toronto Telegram ran a brief article which reported that this young bank teller “may have been despondent over a love affair".

Rumours have emerged over the years about the cause of her suicide. One accused her of stealing money, another said she was having an affair with another teller or the married bank manager, who lived in the apartment upstairs. A psychic believed Dorothy was actually murdered after she uncovered a scheme that involved the bank manager, the chief of police and a leading judge who were embezzling money.

Since her death there have been countless reports of lights flicking on and off, windows opening, moaning and eerie sounds and even people feeling like they were being watched...when in a room all alone. A previous employee of the Hall, Rob Hynes, remembers the one day he was there for a special event. When getting coffee in the kitchen behind an empty conference room, he felt a strong urge that someone was watching him and that it enticed him into the dark conference room. Once he was in there, one of the chairs was turning as if a breeze were inside.. which eventually moved right through him. Rob has said that he is a skeptic when it comes to ghosts, but he ran out of there as fast as he could. As you walk past the historic Hockey Hall of Fame see if you can feel any paranormal presence.... if you dare.
