AlienCon Dallas 2019 banner

What does the show Ghost Hunters have in common with the upcoming series, The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch? Two things: A+E Networks AlienCon® As I discussed in the “Fall 2019 Paracons, Horror Fest, Ghost Hunting Events and More” podcast episode, Ghost Hunters would be at AlienCon®. I hadn’t written thisContinue Reading

Autumn leaves cemetery path

The calendar says September 23, 2019 is the first day of Fall. Although, I don’t know about you, but here in Nashville, Mother Nature did not get the memo. Summer is still blazing away, much to my chagrin. Fall’s arrival heralds the official start of Spooky Season. Although, again…I don’tContinue Reading

Walker Stalker Banner with Daryl

I’d love to go to every para con and horror fest I could. Money and time, of course, does not permit that. One I’d always been curious about was Walker Stalker. I used to be a huge The Walking Dead fan. (I’m still a fan, but the series has gotten aContinue Reading

Banner with skeleton, mermaid skeleton, and ghosts

I’m late getting the highlights for June’s Paracons & Horror Fests and Ghost Hunting Tours & Events out this month. Again. Story of my life. Apologies. Although I don’t know how many people really pay attention to them anyway, so it really doesn’t matter in the scheme of things IContinue Reading

Are you a Bigfoot fan? April is one of the months you’ll find a bunch of Bigfoot cons — five in fact. And April 13 is the most popular day for them. In fact, April 13 is the most popular day no matter what kind of spooky event, be itContinue Reading

Even though Fall is near and it’s the unofficial start of Halloween season (does it actually ever really end?), September sees the start of the wind-down on paracons and horror events. At least, that’s what a quick glance at the Paracons & Horror Fests Events page shows. The other thing to note,Continue Reading

The lady from The Birds, Jason Voorhees and Svengoolie at The Scarefest paracon and horror fest

Surprisingly, August is one of the last busy months for paracons and horror fests. At least according to our Paracons & Horror Fests Events page, that is. We have as many listed as we’ve come across, but we may be missing a few. (And if that’s the case and youContinue Reading

The first Friday the 13th of 2018 is here. (There are only two. The next one is in July.) What will you do? Got any plans? If you’re looking for some Friday the 13th inspiration, we have some suggestions. 13 in fact. 1. Attend a Haunted Attraction According to theContinue Reading

Skellie and I are heading to Lexington, Kentucky for the ScareFest, September 28, 2017 – October 1, 2017. I decided it might be a fun way to get some publicity for the site and the radio show. So I got us a booth (Booth 112 if you happen be going),Continue Reading

We’re full of questions today, aren’t we? In addition to wondering if you’d find it helpful to know who’s hosting an event, we’d also like to know something else. Would you find it useful if we listed events on our Paracons & Horror Fests page by category? Currently we haveContinue Reading

We’re almost done with our renovations around here. Almost. One more big addition is in the works, but let’s recap all we’ve done so far: Part 1 started with adding our Writers Wanted section. Part 2 saw changes to the Haunted Places, Ghost Tours and Paracons sections. We didn’t labelContinue Reading

In Changes to HJ Part 1, I explained that we’re in the process of changing a few things around here. In Part 1 I focused on how we added a Writers Wanted section and are currently “hiring.” (Have to use that word loosely since the pay is so minimal.) NowContinue Reading
