Ghost hunting In Hudson’s historic Willow Place Inn
Dan Ducheneaux has a business that keeps him busy during the week in Maxville Ontario. But on weekends, he has a hobby that keeps him up at night.
“Some people have called us ghost busters,” Ducheneaux said. “But I would consider myself a paranormal researcher more than a ghost buster. It’s because we take more of a scientific approach to the paranormal.”
So when Ducheneaux heard about the ghost at the old Willow Place Inn in Hudson, Que., he knew he had to see it for himself.
The haunted story dates back to 1837, when a servant girl named Maude was supposedly murdered in the Willow Inn.
Ducheneaux says she was murdered because she overheard the Patriots plotting against the Loyalists during the American Revolution. As the legend goes, her body was then buried in the basement of the inn.
