In a recent email exchange with my friend Dawn Kravagna (who, by the way is a very talented cartoonist, humorist and author all rolled into one –check out her cartoon comic mystery series Cattle Capers to see what I mean), she mentioned how she was going to be making aContinue Reading
This week I thought it’d be fun to Haunt Jaunt to some of the places noted for their fabulous fall foliage. And what better place to start with than New England? Moreover, what compliments any jaunt to New England better than staying at one of their famed B&Bs? I usedContinue Reading
I first came across Debe Branning, author of Sleeping with Ghosts: A Ghost Hunter’s Guide to Arizona’s Haunted Hotels and Inns, when I was adding ghost guides and regional ghost books to HauntJaunts.net’s Emporium. Later I learned she’s also the leader and founder of MVD Ghost Chasers Mesa Arizona and the Arizona Haunted SitesContinue Reading
We’re back from our Haunt Jaunt to Gulf County, Florida, otherwise known as Florida’s Forgotten Coast. All I can say is, I don’t know what was harder to find: a place to eat or a ghost. WHERE WE STAYED Actually, finding a place to eat wasn’t all that hard. ItContinue Reading
I’m planning a Haunt Jaunt to Florida’s Gulf County for July. When I was blogging at Families.com I wrote about Cape San Blas, a dog-friendly city in Gulf County. I’ve wanted to go ever since (and so has my pooch, Murphy). Wayne finally agreed that’s where we can take ourContinue Reading
Today I finally had some time to skim the posts on the Yahoo! Groups I belong to and ended up stumbling across Haunt Jaunts galore! (I didn’t have much time to lurk around these groups before, but I do now that I’m done with radiation. After what I came acrossContinue Reading
A few weeks ago I added The Battery Carriage House Inn to Haunt Jaunts’ Spooky Stays section. I don’t remember how I came across it, but when I went to check out their website I saw they have a page dedicated to ghost stories and sightings at the inn. VeryContinue Reading
Today I stumbled across a pretty good article on Digg called “Someone Grab Scooby–Doo: The World’s Most Haunted Landmarks.” What I liked most about the article: the pics and details of the ghosts supposedly haunting each haunted landmark. What I didn’t like about the article: I was surprised some placesContinue Reading
I was talking to a friend the other day about HauntJaunts.net and he said, “Ghosts can follow you home. You don’t want to be messing with seeking them out, Courtney. That’s bad stuff.” That’s a concept I’ve seen addressed on some of the TV shows that deal with ghosts andContinue Reading
I’m a fan of the show Ghost Hunters but I don’t follow Jason and Grant’s every doing like some fans. That’s why I was surprised to learn they’d bought an inn in New Hampshire. The Spalding Inn, which was a fairly decent-sized one too. (Guess they can no longer claimContinue Reading

They all have quite the history –either of murder and mayhem or of paranormal mischief in general. They’ve also all been featured on various TV shows, including ones likes Scariest PlacesContinue Reading
In 1998, I worked for the law firm Snell & Wilmer in Phoenix, Arizona. I worked in Bankruptcy at the time, but business was slow back then. Because we had a minimum hours requirement and I was having trouble meeting mine, I was “loaned out” to another practice group. Funny,Continue Reading
