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.
It would be more apropos to label this post “Freaky Friday Fun.” I came across it earlier this week and after I jumped and had a good laugh at myself, I knew I had to share it. It’s been around for a while, so for some of you it willContinue Reading
I know in my Black Friday post last week I admitted I’m not much of a shopper. Yet not only did that post focus on shopping, but so did my second Friday Fun post from last week about Unique Christmas Gifts. Guess what? Today’s Friday Fun is also shopping-oriented.(Hey, ’tisContinue Reading
I always learn something when I travel. Which is nice. Then I can pass the tips along to others who might not have thought to ask certain questions or taken certain things into consideration before setting out on their quests either. On our Haunt Jaunt to Key West and NassauContinue Reading
I was really hoping the last time I changed my blog’s “skin” would be it. It wasn’t exactly perfect, but it suited my purposes well enough. Or so I thought… COMMENTS It all started shortly before I left for vacation. Julie from Above the Norm alerted me to the factContinue Reading
Just a quick note to say I made it back from the Devil’s Triangle alive. We had an amazing vacation and I even did manage to con Wayne into a bit of Haunt Jaunting. (While we were in Key West at least. Didn’t get to do any in Nassau.) However,Continue Reading
I learned about the upcoming movie “Foreclosure” via Alison’s interview with filmmaker Richard Ledes on Screamstress a couple weeks back. I Tweeted about it then, but didn’t feature it for Movie Monday last week because I already had two set to post. (Plus, I knew I’d just be getting backContinue Reading
Continuing the Friday Fun Black Friday Shopping Spree, I decided to put together a list of products I’ve come across that would make unique Christmas gifts. These would make excellent presents for those people in your life that are either (a) hard to buy for because they have everything, orContinue Reading
I’m not much of a shopper, but ’tis the season when shopping’s on everyone’s To Do list isn’t it? So, in an effort to make it fun, I thought I’d spend Black Friday preparing for Cyber Monday. (If I can avoid the crowds via the convenience of the Internet toContinue Reading
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I happen to love Thanksgiving. (And this year more than ever before boy howdy do I have a TON to be thankful for!) But I also know Thanksgiving can bring on a lot of pressures with the family commitments, cooking, eating, not toContinue Reading
If all has gone as planned, today we should be docked in Key West. (I must confess. I actually wrote this before we left to post while we’re gone. That’s why the “if all has gone as planned” statement.) At any rate, I thought since I was in Florida, I’dContinue Reading
It’s another two-fer today for Movie Monday. This second movie trailer, The Message, also came to my attention via a follow on Twitter (by @TheMessageMovie). I don’t know what to make of it. Here’s the tagline: “Does God really want you?” I’m not usually a big fan of movies withContinue Reading
This week’s Movie Monday trailer clip, Underground, came to my attention thanks to @NewHorrorFilm following me on Twitter. It reminds me of a cross between C.H.U.D. and the Descent…except these underground beasties live in an underground military bunker. I can’t quite discern from the trailer how the group of friendsContinue Reading
