I was going through my photos the other night and realized something very bad. I have not written about a lot of my jaunts over the past couple of years. I may mention them on the Facebook page or share…

Halloween Things to Do in Nashville

Today I added a couple of local events to the Paranormal Events page and felt bad. Sometimes I forget about all the things to do in Nashville, especially the haunted and Halloween variety. It seems I get focused on researching…

Where to Roam With Zombies…Rather, Walk or Run with (from?) Them

  In addition to ghosts, I’m nuts about zombies. That’s why I got really excited when this past summer I saw an ad for a zombie run. Actually, it’s not just a zombie run. It’s an obstacle course “infested” with…

Cemeteries in Unexpected Places: The Subdivision & the Agricultural Center

During the past year I’ve been noticing something kind of weird: old cemeteries in unexpected places. It’s actually very common to see old cemeteries around these parts, especially off of roads. But there are some that I’ve stumbled upon by…

Ghosts of Storms Past: The Nashville Flood

A year ago, starting on May 1 and continuing into May 2, Nashville was assaulted with unrelenting rain. The result was too many inches of water in too little time. The rivers swelled, unable to hold it, and spilled over. Land,…

Civil War Haunts, Paranormal Investigators and Middle Tennessee

This past weekend saw the Middle Tennessee area hosting two biggies in the paranormal investigation field. Well, four really. Chris Fleming was in town to do an event, and the Ghost Adventures boys (Zak Bagans, Nick Groff, and Aaron Goodwin)…

I love Cheekwood. I think it’s one of Nashville’s gems. If I was a ghost it’s the kind of place I’d like to haunt. I once asked one of the volunteers if she’d heard of any ghost stories there. She…

Semi Wordless Wednesday Halloween Edition: Athena and the Parthenon

When my friend Kim was here a couple of weeks ago for the surprise birthday party my husband threw me, I took her to Centennial Park to show her the Parthenon. It’s really quite a spectacular sight and one I…

What to Expect When Visiting Tennessee and Kentucky Since the Floods

This morning on my way to tennis I was listening to 107.9, which is a radio station based in Clarksville, Tennessee. (Clarksville is about an hour north of Nashville. Or at least from downtown Nashville. We live south of the…

Before and After Video of the Nashville Flood

When I wrote about the Nashville flood the other day I also included a few video clips. Most were from YouTube but one was mine I took of the flood waters at our neighborhood Publix supermarket. I had to stop…

Crying Foul: Nashville Not a Top News Story?

I was astounded when I watched the TODAY show this morning and instead of seeing stories about the flooding in Tennessee and Kentucky I heard expert after expert talk about the arrest of the suspected terrorist bomber and the Gulf…

All About the Nashville Flood

Many of you know I live in Nashville. We can’t get any national news coverage because from Saturday until today the local news has been the only thing on ABC, NBC and CBS. I don’t know if you’ve seen it…

Tennessee Spirits – The Ghosts of the Volunteer State

When I was a kid, I was heavily into horror movies, and that fascination turned into an interest for real ghost stories. My first book on the paranormal was Haunted Houses by Richard Winer and Nancy Osborn-Ishmael, and today, more…

Haunt Jaunts Adventure in Front of the Camera

This morning I had the very exciting opportunity to venture in front of the camera and talk about both Haunt Jaunts and its mission to raise money for the Lymphoma Research Foundation when Better Nashville‘s Jennifer Herron contacted me for…
