Location: TTC Lower Bay Subway Station City/town: Toronto, Ontario Do not trespass! Trespassers will be caught and criminally charged. Permission from the location owner must be granted to visit this location. I spoke to one of the TTC employees who was currently working at Lower Bay subway station at the time, which is located just below the current Bay subway station. He told me that his father also worked for the TTC, and that his father told him about the legend of the 'Lady in Red' that reportedly haunts there. He also told me that sometimes he himself experiences drafts down there which he believes are not normal. I questioned if it could just be the vent system and he told me that he believed it is not possible for this type of draft to be down there. The employee also mentioned that he "gets the creeps" while down on the tracks. So, just who is this 'Lady in Red'? Some believe that she was a woman who either jumped or was pushed into the tracks when a train came by. However, to date no evidence has been found of anybody falling, being pushed, or dying at this subway station during the six months that it was opened to the public. Also of interest is that the subway station was built on the former property of 'Potter's Field', which is said to have been a "graveyard for the poor and social outcasts". It is said that the bodies were relocated to Necropolis when the land was developed, before the TTC built its station. A few of the TTC employees told me that they believe she "lives" in the old pump room located in the tunnel going from Lower Bay, and is seen travelling along the tunnel there. Other reports say she "floats" and has "black holes" for eyes. Michelle McKay has been a paranormal investigator for over 15 years. In 2002, she founded Cold Spot Paranormal Research (ColdSpot.org).
