SUMMARY:La Société d'histoire de Toronto HISTORITOUR - LES FANTÔMES DE TORONTO
DESCRIPTION:Guides : Agnès Manivit et Catherine Frelin \nDépart : Devant l’entrée du ROM sur la rue Bloor \nArrivée: Osgoode Hall\, rue Queen \nComme toutes les grandes villes\, Toronto recèle de légendes urbaines. Certains bâtiments seraient le théâtre de phénomènes inexpliqués ou d’apparences intempestives d’anciens locataires. Les profils de ces indésirables fantômes sont étonnamment variés\, reflétant par exemple la nostalgie ou la tragédie des âmes en peine. Beaucoup des lieux que nous vous proposons de visiter vous sont familiers. Vous les avez certainement fréquentés sans en connaître leur face cachée. \nAu gré des histoires auxquelles il vous appartiendra de croire ou non\, nous explorerons un territoire qui s’étend de Bloor Street à Queen Street. Rejoignez-nous pour cette visite insolite qui aura lieu le soir d’Halloween. \nIl n’est pas nécessaire de réserver. Pas de chiens SVP. La SHT passera le chapeau à la fin de la visite
