Mysteries of The Unknown

"How are we to explain the strength and grip of superstition? Certainly in its origin and development, sinister non-human demonic influences play a great role..."
Phillip Schmidt S.J. - Superstition and Magic

Scott McClelland has been brought up around the Strange and Unexplainable all of his life, his grandfather, Prof.N.P. Lewchuk, was a pioneer in Paranormal Entertainment. Scott spent his early childhood around his grandfathers Carnival and slowly was apprenticed into the World of the Paranormal. His grandfather owned the first traveling Sideshow and Carnival in Canada that toured from 1920 thru 1968.

He was notorious for performing Seance's on stage and manifesting things that go bump in the night. A true Mystic that travelled in caravans, spreading Fear and Wonderment everywhere he would go.

Grandpa Sceance 1925While travelling throughout Canada in the early 20th century, many settlers were superstitious. When Prof Lewchuk performed magic and sideshow feats, many people thought that he must be working in league with the devil. It was not unusual to have many people in the audience "cross themselves" after a feat was done. Fear and Superstitions ranked high among Canadian Pioneers but there was always sold out shows.

Weird tales would take shape as Prof Lewchuk's Midway and Shows entered their town. Old timers still recall stories that followed each act. After watching Lewchuk's masterful performances in round-eyed wonder, they would gather in little knots to discuss what they thought they had seen. Some confided that on their way to the theatre they had seen black cats also heading that way. An old lady, who saw the performance at Gorlitz, swore she saw a black devil sporting a long tail sitting on the chimney. All were certain Lewchuk had a "devil under his armpit" - an old Ukrainian belief that, if a person wanted his own personal incubus to do his bidding, all he had to do was take one of those miniature first effort eggs laid by a young hen, put it under his arm pit and wait a period of nine months when the egg was supposed to hatch a tiny devil ready to obey his master. Others saw devils under tables and in around props. While his acts awed them, most of his fellow countrymen also feared Lewchuk with a religious fervour.

Scott McClelland is preserving the secrets and following the illustrious pathways of his grandfather to bring the public the most Extravagant Paranormal Spectacle of the 21st. Century!

There is Nothing to FEAR... but FEAR itself!
