The Haunted Mather’s House


The Haunted Mather’s House


The Mather’s House is only a very short walk from the Anderson Home.

This is once again a heritage home owned by the City of Burnaby and was also a family home built in 1912, bought by the same Benedictine monks along with the Anderson Home.

The one big difference is, this used to be convalescent home for soldiers wounded during World War I. It is also now a heritage home and even now is a creepy home to visit.

Some of the better known events are bygone toys being thrown around and strange lights being seen. Others still have been so frightened that they no longer return.

If this home interests you and you have the nerve, have a visit some time and see if you will want to come back again.

The Haunted Anderson House of Deer Lake



The Haunted Anderson House of Deer Lake

Robert F. and Bessie Anderson


The Anderson Home is located at 6450 Deer Lake Avenue, in Burnaby B.C.

It’s just one of many historic homes located in and around the Deer Lake area. The house was built in 1912, and the Anderson family lived there until just after World War I.

The home was eventually bought by the Benedictine Monks in 1939 and used as a seminary, until around 1971 when the city of Burnaby purchased the home. In 1992 it was designated it as a heritage site.

Now most people would look at, read about this property and say it’s interesting. But what’s not told often is the creepy side of this home. Some of the events proclaimed to have happened include: hearing the sound of music and the more disturbing footsteps on the stairs.

If you are ever in the area of Deer Lake, take a closer look at the homes—you may see more then you expect. To find more out about this house and much more, visit the site of writer, Robert C. Belyk or read his books. Well worth the time.
