The solar eclipse on August 21, 2017 is being dubbed the Great American Eclipse. (Naturally. Everything has to have a snazzy catch-phrase these days, right?) However, to be fair, this is a pretty significant astronomical event for the United States. It deserves some hoopla. Are you ready for it? OrContinue Reading
Five years after an unexplained malfunction causes the death of 15 tour-goers and staff on the opening night of a Halloween haunted house tour, a documentary crew travels back to the scene of the tragedy to find out what really happened. I finally got to stream Hell House LLC onContinue Reading
I’ve seen them called a couple of different names, such as tragedy selfies or disaster selfies. Lately I’ve noticed a lot of articles about such selfies, like: Artist Shames Tourists Taking Inappropriate Selfies At The Holocaust Memorial Site In Berlin (NSFW) Yolocaust or Cheeky Exploit? ‘Dark tourism’ and selfies: WhatContinue Reading
One of the ports on our British Isles cruise a couple years back was Greenock, Scotland. We’d done our research and knew that a quick train ride would take us to Glasgow. Before we’d left home, I’d bought City Sightseeing Glasgow Hop-On Hop-Off Tour tickets for us from our affiliate,Continue Reading

This is a guest contribution from freelance writer Sally Writes. Africa has to be the ultimate destination for an unforgettable holiday.

This is a contribution from freelance writer Sally Writes. Kids have so many things competing for their time these days, it can often seem like they are missing out on both the health benefits and the pleasures of exploring the great outdoors. Part of the trouble is that going outContinue Reading
With the weather warming up, getting outside and getting some exercise becomes more appealing. Nicer weather is also more conducive to haunt jaunting. Regular walking ghost tours marry the two (exercise plus haunt jaunting), but earlier this year a unique tour in Utah came to my attention: Pedal Provo GhostContinue Reading
What is it with April? I’ve shared my theory here before (we’ll get to those links later) that I believe it’s a cursed month. It’s been a while since I went there though. But every April I can’t help but wonder, “What, when, where, and how will disaster strike thisContinue Reading
