When the Devil Spoke: Canada’s Most Chilling Poltergeist Case

Every now and then, I like to branch out beyond Edinburgh and
Scotland and bring you a case from further afield - one that’s
too strange, too unnerving, and too well-documented to ignore.
But just as importantly, I want to bring you the stories that
don’t always get the spotlight. The ones that risk being
forgotten.

This is one of them

In 1889, a remote farmhouse in Clarendon, Quebec became the
centre of one of the most unsettling paranormal cases in Canadian
history. The Dagg family claimed they were haunted by a presence
that moved furniture, tore beds apart, attacked a young girl -
and spoke aloud in a deep, gravelly voice.

This wasn’t folk tales. Seventeen people signed formal witness
statements. Journalists, neighbours, clergy, and even a
spiritualist investigator and famous painter named Percy Woodcock
all confirmed something extraordinary was happening. The voice
identified itself as the Devil. It mocked, threatened, and asked
for forgiveness.

But that was just the beginning.

In this episode, we explore the incredible case of the Dagg
Poltergeist.

This isn’t just a ghost story. It’s something else.
