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. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
The Guardian was the first article I read that pondered whether the Los Roques islands are the new Bermuda Triangle. The article was written after Vittorio Missoni’s plane disappeared on January 4, 2013. I’m not into fashion so I don’t know who Vittorio Missoni is, but apparently he’s a bigContinue Reading
Located in the southern portion of the state, Bowling Green is Kentucky’s third largest city. It’s 60 miles from Nashville, Tennessee and 110 miles from Louisville, Kentucky. It was honored with a Dozen Distinctive Destination by the National Trust for Historic Preservation because of its dedication to showing off itsContinue Reading
I wrote about Stranded back in November as one of the new crop of paranormal “reality” shows debuting on Syfy this year. Well, its time has come. Stranded will debut on Syfy on February 27 at 9/8 Central. It looks like it could be good. As I stated before, itContinue Reading
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 Real on Discovery Channel? It aired on January 27. The footageContinue Reading
Last week I received some info about a movie that’s currently in the post-production phase: Scopia. It looks rather interesting. At least, it caught my eye because it deals with something else I’m interested in: past lives and past life regression. Below is some info about it (the plot andContinue Reading
Lately something’s been bothering me, but it wasn’t until a friend share an article with me, which I will discuss below, that I even realized it. I’m a non-ghost hunter. I jaunt to haunted places. I don’t use equipment to investigate the places I travel. My studies are quiet, non-intrusive,Continue Reading
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 intriguing, but an apparition? The skeptic in me wasn’t readyContinue Reading

Janice is the author of four books from History Press: Missouri’s Haunted Route 66: Ghosts Along theContinue Reading
Do you like a good mystery with your ghost story? If so, let me recommend The Secret of Crickley Hall. I came to know of it when BBC America aired a film version of it in October 2012 for Halloween season. (It’s based on a book of the same nameContinue Reading
I’m not sure if 2012 had more mass shootings than any other year, but I felt they were more disturbing than any other year. Maybe because the shootings at the theater in Aurora, Colorado and Newtown, Connecticut were so senselessness. I mean, it wasn’t like the shooters had a personalContinue Reading
Depending on how often you visit our site, you may or may not be aware we updated our header. It’s not a completely new look. Same style as our old one, just with some new photos. We wanted a refreshed look for the New Year. And we had a wholeContinue Reading
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 thought it’d be fun to take a look at theContinue Reading
