Casino Regina, formerly known as the Union Station it was built it 1912 and was actually Regina's third train station. The building is a historic site and was converted into the Casino Regina after years of sitting empty. The building contains old railway police jail cells in the basement that were used for transporting prisoners, and shows evidence of a tunnel representing a system of underground passages. There are many stories about the Casino being haunted. Most people believed that it is haunted by those who worked at the location while it was a station. They said that you can hear voices when no one is around or you can see doors open that required key cards. These instances are also said to be caught on camera. While it is a bustling casino now it is hard to hear anything beyond the sounds of the games and music.

Weyburn mental hospital was demolished by the government. It was a very sad day as they did not save any part of it...correction, they saved a couple small limestone pieces and have done nothing with them since. In fact they have done nothing to protect the pieces or create any historic memorial to the hospital. I predict they will slap a quick plaque on the ground stating the mental hospital was there and it will most likely get stolen in the future and then nothing. I don't blame the city who demolished the building, I blame the government for their lack of preserving history in this province. There are so many examples in this province of the government destroying history in the name of “progress”. It was not long after the hospital was demolished that they started a housing development, which renders the question – would you want to live in a house that sits on the grounds of an old mental hospital? I will agree that it is a beautiful location – sitting on the edge of th...

If you have ever been to Regina I am sure you have seen this grand historic hotel.  Built in 1927 by the Canadian Pacific Railway, this grand Victorian  historic hotel looks over Victoria park in Regina. The building was built with brick as well as Tyndall stone, the same as the legislative building in Regina. This beautiful hotel was renovated in the early 1990's and was designated a heritage property in 1993. With all this history how could it not be haunted? This grand hotel definitely has its share of guests who never checked out. Workers and guests have seen apparitions down hallways  as well as finding objects move and watching lighting fixtures sway. Staff has experienced much poltergeist activity in the hotel - floors of note include 3rd and 5th.
