  • Summary

  • Located in the upscale neighbourhood of Shaughnessy this stately 20,000 square foot, 30 room home was completed in 1911 for General Alexander Duncan McRae. In the 1920s and 30s, the General and his wife, Blaunche McRae, hosted many high society parties in the house. The gatherings were famous amongst Vancouver’s social elite, especially their New Year’s Eve masquerade balls. Their guests included royalty, high ranking politicians, and high-profile businessmen and their wives. In 1942, the McRae donated Hycroft Manor to the Canadian Government, but before that his family was involved in one of the city's most mysterious unsolved cases. Some believe that the controversy surrounding The McRaes is why Hycroft Manor has easily become one of Vancouver’s most haunted mansions.
