“This is a true story that happened to a friend of a friend of mine.” We all have tales that start this way. A creepy basement with malevolent forces haunts our childhood memories, or a mysterious light on the third floor of an empty building switches on, despite its (human) occupants turning it off. Or maybe, you’re at your wit's end with an Ouija board that sits sternly on your attic shelf, despite multiple attempts to get rid of it. 

For one night, bring your ghost stories, your close encounters, your hair-raising, spine-chilling tales of the abnormal – the unearthly, spectral, mysterious beings who visit (or persist) in our plane of existence. Will you welcome them?

Doors open at 6:30. Sign-up is at the door, first come, first served to a maximum of 10 storytellers. (Extra storytellers will be added to a waitlist, time permitting.)

During the day, K. D. Kulpa is a research scientist and mom of three. 

At night, she writes horror fiction and conducts paranormal research – hoping to bring life to things that go bump in the night.

K. D. Kulpa is based out of Regina, Saskatchewan. She believes growing up in a haunted house in Nipawin, Saskatchewan is what made her believe in the paranormal. When you see a person that shouldn’t be there, and regularly hear phantom footsteps, it’s hard not to! That’s why she finds paranormal research and touring haunted locations so interesting – she wants to know the ghosts’ names and understand their story.
