Last week I saw a story on Today about how a team of researchers filmed a giant squid in its natural habitat for the first time ever. In fact, you may have caught the show Monster Squid: The Giant Is…

The other day on our Facebook page, a jaunter posted a picture of an “apparition” she “caught” (with her camera, of course, not her bare hands or some Ghostbusters-type contraption) at the La Fonda Hotel in New Mexico. It was…

Springfield, Missouri has her own castle. The structure sits well hidden behind Evangel College. Driving along Glenstone one would never know the castle existed from the view near the street. The building was designed to resemble a castle reflecting the…

Previously I wrote about the ghosts of Highclere Castle, a.k.a where the Masterpiece Classic Downton Abbey is set. But what if Downton Abbey was haunted? There have certainly been enough deaths in the regal house to account for ghosts. I…

The other day I got to thinking about who the most famous ghost might be. Maybe because of the time of year. I know it’s the time to celebrate Christ’s birth, however, I can’t think of him without thinking of…

The other day I received an email from Dr. Kathleen Riach, Reader in Management at the Essex Business School of the University of Essex. She stated a participant had mentioned my website (thank you kind anonymous person). After checking Haunt…

Hello All, Emma Rae Curtis here again. I’ve been a fan of Halloween since I was a little girl. The magic, the mystery, the feeling of the supernatural—I was enchanted immediately. It’s a magical time of year, and I’ve been…

CAUTION: Rant ahead. I read two articles about things paranormal researcher Joe Nickell discussed on a July 4th Coast to Coast AM show about ghosts and ghost hunters, and it got me all fired up. (See: Professional paranormal investigator: There’s…

This past weekend I had a profound experience. One that has sort of changed my view on ghost stories, ghost hunting, paranormal investigating, and haunt jaunting in general. Let me start by giving you some background first. WHEN LOVED ONES…

Once upon a time I wondered, “When Chernobyl opens to tourists, will there be ghost tours?” And ever since Destination Truth‘s visit there, I’ve wondered, “Just how haunted is Pripyat anyway?” Well, Oren Peli is going to explore the theme…

Saw the following press release on SBWire about a ghost hunting tour company in New York City offering events at the Met. Added their link to the Ghost Tours, Walks & Hunts page. Below are the details from their press…

What interesting things I learned today at tennis from the girls on my team about ghosts right here in my own backyard! They all know about my spooky little blog, but I never really talk about it much with them.…

As I explained when I wrote about why it is I’m drawn to the paranormal like I am, I’m truly more of a skeptic than a believer. Our recent jaunt to Turkey has challenged a lot of my beliefs about…

Since I was eleven years old, I’ve been keeping expansive lists of haunted houses. It started out on a yellow pad, moved to a journal that I rewrote and reworked over the years and now has been gradually transferred to…

First there was “Snakes on a Plane.” Then came Zombies on a Plane. (Okay, to be fair, it was actually called “Flight of the Living Dead: Outbreak on a Plane.” Still, the gist was zombies on a plane.) The next…

Thanks to social media, this weekend I noticed many of my friends saying they’d either been to, or were preparing to go see, The Woman in Black. I had it in my mind that it didn’t come out until March…

I suppose I have to make this disclaimer ahead of time: the Etsy store and the products I’m featuring this Friday belong to my sister Dinell Holmes. She did not ask me to do this, nor is she compensating me…

This often shocks a lot of people, but even though I’ve had some personal paranormal experiences, I’m still probably more of a skeptic than a believer. Sure, I often have prophetic dreams. For instance, I dreamt of such biggies before…

Researching the paranormal in Istanbul via the Internet for our trip has proven to be no easy task. There is most definitely a shortage of links about haunted places there. However, I’ve found a few. 1. Two extraterrestrials were caught…

This is a guest post by Selina at xperiencedays.com, providers of unique gifts and gift experience certificates. At this time of year ghosts and ghouls are never far from our minds. But did you know that you can raise the…

I don’t normally write about people with ghost problems. I prefer the paranormal tourism aspect of ghost hunting and like to write about haunted places people can travel to. However, a travel blogger friend of mine who hails from Florida…

Some people believe my nature (a.k.a. “soul”) is in danger because I like traveling to places with ghosts. Also, they believe I’m more susceptible to evil energies because I don’t have a religious affiliation. ALL GOOD HEATHENS GO TO HELL…

When I mapped out where 2011 would take me, I had no idea it’d be to Mexico. Twice. The first time, when we went to Costa Maya and Cozumel, I saw some Dia de los Muertos dolls. I think they’re…

A few months back, Jessica from Ghost Stories and Haunted Places left a comment on Top Five Countries with the Best Paranormal Tourism: It is interesting that the country with one of the shorter histories made number one. You’d think…

Below is a few of my favorite ghost jokes. I’ll warn you: they’re groaners. (Pun intended!) There’s also a joke about Michael Myers from Halloween and Jason from Friday the 13th. It’s at the end, after the ghost jokes. QUESTION: How…

I decided to resurrect a past post from the archives. Reapers, Creepers and Shadow People: A Theory Inspired by Ghost Adventures at Waverly Hills was originally published on October 13, 2010. It’s one of my favorites theories. I modified it only…

A while back I saw a post on Phantoms & Monsters about a chupacabra-like creature attacking Siberian livestock. It made me do a forehead slap. “Doh! What was I thinking only looking for haunted Mayan ruins when we were in Mexico? …

Yes, I’m writing about the indie horror film Ghost from the Machine again. Yes, I did just hold a contest giving away a couple of DVDs, but today I read some exciting news I thought was shareworthy. Plus, it’s Movie Monday,…

When we took our Alaskan cruise in 2008 we flew into Anchorage. We spent a night there before catching the transfer that took us to the cruise terminal in Whittier. When we’d booked our cruise we were strongly encouraged to…

If you’ve either investigated yourself or watched any of the ghost hunting shows, you’ve likely encountered a “Get out!” EVP. Most people assume it’s a ghost’s way of perhaps not-so-politely asking the living to scram. It could be. Sometimes the “Get out!”…
