Peggy’s Cove is a very beautiful but rugged seacoast tourist attractions. Recently a boardwalk and fenced deck was built to keep tourists safer and more comfortable.

It’s too bad that people can’t use common sense and avoid dangerous situations or take precautions. It’s for that very reason that we’re inundated with warning signs wherever we go.

She just stood there by my bed, completely shrouded in white. I couldn’t make out her features but I knew instinctively who she was.
It was late at night and I had been asleep for hours. Her presence woke me from a deep sleep. She didn’t make a sound but her appearance startled me and I screamed.
My husband rose from his sleep and tried to console me.

“There’s someone next to the bed.”
She was gone but the cold air lingered and caused me to shiver. My mother had come to warn me.
‘Don’t let him go.’
