    MISSING: Colleen Smith

    In this episode, we dive into the puzzling disappearance of Colleen Sylvia Smith, a 51-year-old woman from Rock Creek, BC. On or around February 9, 2016, Colleen vanished without a trace, just days before she was scheduled to work at a local Petro-Canada station. Her blue Chevrolet Cobalt was later found abandoned in Kelowna, 135 kilometers away, adding more mystery to her case. Known for her love of animals and her work as a seamstress and photographer, Colleen was in the middle of crafting a wedding dress when she disappeared. Despite ongoing efforts by her family and authorities, her whereabouts remain unknown.  Join us as we explore the details of her case alongside her friend Erika. -- This podcast is recorded on the territories of the Coast Salish people.

    Halloween Special: The Haunted Empire Hotel

    This Halloween, True North True Crime takes you back to June 1898 at what was once the Empire Hotel, where the tragic love story of Charles Kincaid and Belle Adams ended in bloodshed. On that fateful night, Charles, clutching his bleeding neck, stumbled into the street, followed by Belle, razor in hand, crying, “Don’t die!” Now an office building, workers report eerie encounters—unexplained sounds and ghostly figures in the halls—believing the spirits of Charles and Belle still linger. We’re joined by haunted tour guide Gill Millam from Discover the Past, who shares chilling stories of these hauntings and reveals why this tale has left its mark on one of Canada’s most haunted cities.
