I finally had a chance to read my YouTube Subscription Update email and saw Beyond Ghosts had added a new video: Beyond Ghosts Events for Summer 2010! Curious, I popped on over to check it out. It’s SLICK! It’s actually everything a video of this nature probably should be: informative,Continue Reading

Last week I learned about a ghost hunt at Waverly Hills with the Ghost Adventures crew (and Darkness Radio)  and about popped off my rocker. I don’t remember if I saw it on the Ghost Adventures Facebook fan page or the new one they just launched for Zak, but IContinue Reading

Myspace Graphics@LayoutLocator.com REMEMBERING BACK Today’s the big day. One year ago today I launched Haunt Jaunts with “Here There Be Ghosts.” I only put up a few posts the next month and didn’t start posting on a more regular basis until May. (I was still doing chemo so I didn’tContinue Reading
