Located amid the rugged, scenic vistas of Conception Bay, off the Avalon Peninsula of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, is a tiny speck of land called Bell Island. Measuring just 6 miles in length and 2.2 miles in width, it nevertheless strikes an imposing presence with its soaring cliffs on all sides and its numerous sea caves and sandstone sea stacks. It is known for its craggy, menacing façade, for the most part seeming to be almost unapproachable with its jagged rocky exterior, as well as for its rich diversity of sea birds coming here to roost. Yet for all of its wild charms and rugged, scenic beauty, the island also has its share of dark secrets, and indeed this windswept slash of rock has managed to gather about itself a reputation for being among the most haunted places in Canada.
