Then in 2005, Halloween night, I may have witnessed the Dark Lady herself. I was sitting at the front of the main gallery; location of the latest wonderful art exhibit put up by the Worker’s Arts and Heritage Centre, and was scrapping some wayward wax from a table. I heard a quiet creaking from the old wood floors and was hesitant to look up, afraid of what I might see. When catching my nerves, I looked up to find a young woman sitting in a chair directly in front of me. She was there for a moment, before vanishing right before my eyes.

The Hamilton Custom House (1858-60) is an excellent example of Italianate architecture in Canada. It was designed by Frederick J. Rastrick and F.P. Rubridge. With its rusticated base and smooth upper storey, the building drew its inspriation from the Renaissance palaces of Rome and Florence. The classical detailing and stonework are exceptionally fine. The Italianate influence was popular for commerical architecture in Canada from the 1840's until the 1870's.
