    Halloween Special 2026

    Some stories are too bizarre to believe. Others are too unsettling to forget. This Halloween, we're digging into three of Canada's creepiest unsolved mysteries. A Quebec farmhouse terrorized by an unseen presence that seemed to have a mind of its own. Eerie lights descending over a Nova Scotia fishing village, leaving witnesses shaken and authorities searching for answers. And something monstrous lurking beneath the waters off British Columbia, with a discovery that defies explanation. Ghosts, UFOs, and creatures from the deep. Three chilling stories pulled from Canadian history, where the truth may be even stranger than the legends. So lock the doors, turn down the lights, and settle in. Because this Halloween, we're exploring the things that might be better left unexplained. Join us for a special Halloween edition of True North True Crime.

    The Girl in the Park - Part 1

    M. was thirteen years old. She loved anime and sewing her own costumes. On the evening of July 18, 2017, she was murdered in Burnaby's Central Park. Her body was found there on July 19, 2017. This crime shocked British Columbia and Canada. In this episode, we tell you about M. and her family, and the truth about the man arrested for this heinous crime. What followed her murder was a massive investigation. Three hundred officers worked the case. Police looked at two thousand people as possible suspects. More than a year passed with no answers. It became IHIT's largest active investigation, and one of the largest they had ever handled, with more than 2,300 investigative tasks completed. Investigators eventually turned to cutting edge DNA technology and investigative strategies rarely used in Canada to find him. This is Part One of a three-part series on M.'s murder. Content warning: this episode discusses the murder of a minor. PLEASE READ: Some TNTC+ episodes may be released publicly in the future. TNTC+ subscribers will always get first access.

    Shawn Reineke

    In September 1984, eighteen-year-old Shawn Reineke went to a university dance in Saskatoon. At some point that night, a group of strangers pranked him while he was passed out drunk, then left him alone in the building. Hours later, he was found at the bottom of a garbage chute, nine floors below. He died the next day. A coroner's inquest the following year concluded it was highly unlikely Shawn got into that chute on his own. Even so, nobody was ever charged, and more than forty years later, nobody has ever explained what actually happened that night. Saskatoon lawyer David Scharf spent years researching Shawn's case and joins us to walk through what's known, and what still isn't. -- Music Composed by: Sayer Roberts - https://soundcloud.com/user-135673977 // shorturl.at/mFPZ0 Subscribe to TNTC+ on Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/TNTC Join our Patreon: www.patreon.com/tntcpod Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/true-north-true-crime?ref_id=24376 Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@truenorthtruecrime Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/truenorthtruecrime Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/truenorthtruecrime Hosted on Acast.

She also discusses her advocacy for children living with domestic violence and her own journey through trauma, healing, faith and forgiveness.

    Adam Cormack

    In June 2017, twenty-five-year-old Adam Cormack was shot once in the head and left near a gravel pit outside Whitehorse, Yukon. Within days, Yukon RCMP had a suspect in custody: Edward Penner. Two years later, a jury convicted Penner of first-degree murder, and he was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for twenty-five years. That should have been the end of it. It wasn't. In 2025, the Yukon Court of Appeal overturned Penner's conviction, and a new murder trial was ordered from the beginning. In this episode, we take you through the Adam Cormack murder trial: the evidence, the witnesses who testified, the appeal that unraveled the verdict, and the retrial still ahead. We hear directly from Adam's mother, Theresa Cormack, and a close family friend, on what it's meant to keep fighting for justice for Adam inside Canada's justice system.
