Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days.

As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen this before: a ghost tour on Thanksgiving and a ghost hunt on Black Friday. Say what? Though in my defense, perhaps there have been such events and I either (a) wasn’t paying attention, or (b) was off jaunting somewhere (I.e. a cruise) and wasContinue Reading

November 19 is World Toilet Day. It’s not one of the days the Skeleton Crew and I track on our Weird Holidays & Observances page. So how did it come to my attention? It showed up on my iPhone’s calendar of all places. I’m not sure how it got there.Continue Reading
Okay the title may be misleading because I believe your window of opportunity is very limited for entering to win a free investigation at the Haunted Haldeman Mansion. Like, if you don’t read this post the same day, you may not be able to still enter. However, you still canContinue Reading
