Guess what season it is? Still Winter, technically. Ha! Did I getcha? Seriously though, I can tell Spring is drawing near. Lately I’m seeing more and more horror and paranormal events being advertised, something that’s sort of dead in Winter (pun intended). Here’s the ones I’ve seen so far. IfContinue Reading

This is a guest post by William Collins. Since I was eleven years old, I’ve been keeping expansive lists of haunted houses. It started out on a yellow pad, moved to a journal that I rewrote and reworked over the years and now has been gradually transferred to series ofContinue Reading

This is a guest blog by William Collins. If you like this story and are on Twitter, let him know by sending him a Tweet via @Thor_2000. The purpose behind the Collinsport Ghost Society has always been to convert fictional Hollywood haunted locations into their real world locations, but whyContinue Reading

Well, the ghosts factor in obviously, but what is it that really makes some haunted places more popular than others? I’ll give you a hint: it only has two letters. (I’ll reveal the answer later in the post.) But first, let me explain the catalyst for this post. In hisContinue Reading

August 26 is National Dog Day and in honor of it I thought it’d be fun to write about some pet friendly haunt jaunts. I always like to take my Murph (pictured above) along on jaunts with me when the haunts will allow. I try to keep a list ofContinue Reading

On a few occasions Courtney from Haunt Jaunts and I have discussed via Twitter haunted areas/destinations that have been rather ignored or forgotten when it comes to top paranormal places to visit and investigate.

This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending the 1st Annual Specters Phantoms and Other Otherworldly Kin (SPOOK) Conference in Shadyside, Tennessee. It was quit amazing. SPOOKs from some of the biggest haunts all across the country showed up. Luckily Shadyside was just the place to host them all.Continue Reading

I’m continuing something I set out to do for 2010, which is chatting with other bloggers about Haunt Jaunting. The wonderful and wordsmith-gifted Julie from Above the Norm graciously agreed to participate, so she’s the next lucky victim -er, I mean subject –of my experiment. Why Above the Norm?

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

Some of you might also follow Autumnforest’s blog Ghost Hunting Theories, but if not she recently posted the results of her “Haunting Formula” research.
