Description
Prepare to be enticed into the eerie world of a supernatural spirit with this stamp and coin gift set. The set contains all five Permanentª domestic stamps from the third and final release in the Haunted Canada series, plus a 25-cent lenticular coin honouring a great Canadian ghost story, the Hag of Bell Island.
The island, off the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador, is home to a female spirit who haunts a local marsh, where itÕs said she died. This shape-shifting succubus first appears as a beautiful woman wearing a white cloak, then transforms into an ugly, deformed creature who carries the overpowering stench of death. Her scent is so strong, it leaves her victims powerless and paralyzed.
Viewed at one angle, the coin depicts the ghost in her alluring form, appearing over a manÕs shoulder. Tilt the coin and the figure becomes a hideous hag, sending her victim scurrying away in terror.
The coin and stamps are housed in a booklet with details of the hair-raising stories they represent.
