I decided to create a Haunt Jaunts “Best of” 2009 Award as I was taking stock of this past year and all the highlights. One of the tops has been creating Haunt Jaunts. If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you might know Haunt Jaunts became my “get off the couch” project while [...]

Here’s something you don’t run across every day: a publishing house with a resident ghost that specializes in horror, suspense, dark fantasy and science fiction. But that’s exactly the story at Pill Hill Press.
I have to give credit to my friend Chris Verstraete for bringing this to my attention. First she sent me some info [...]

My friend Jade Walker recently got married. For their honeymoon, she and her husband spent a month touring Europe. (That was their dream. They’d been saving for it ever since I first met her, back when I was writing for Families.com.)
When she got back she mentioned they’d had an unexpected Haunt Jaunt during their stay [...]

When I wrote about the faked evidence Ghost Hunters doesn’t want you to see, my intention was to accomplish something akin to this quote by Margaret Meade: “I was brought up to believe that the only thing worth doing was to add to the sum of accurate information in the world.”
After learning how the producers [...]

Actually, it’s not so much that Ghost Hunters doesn’t want you to see the following clips. If you’re a fan of the show you’ve likely already seen them. What they don’t want you to do is examine them too closely or question their authenticity.
Why? Because it’s evidence that GH’s evidence isn’t on the up and [...]

I didn’t come across any cool new movies to share for Movie Monday today. (Besides which, Phasma Ex Machina has now set the benchmark. It’s going to take a lot to inspire me after seeing the trailer for that one. I am REALLY excited about it.)
But never fear. I won’t leave you hanging in case [...]

I have to give credit to Twitter again for this (potentially) interesting find. I put potentially in parenthesis because I don’t have a lot of info about this site yet or what all it’s going to entail. The little info I do have sparked my interest, though. I figured it was worth passing along.
From @kreepykrawlys [...]

I woke up Christmas morning and made a Haunt Jaunt to the Christmas tree. To my delight, I unwrapped a bounty of cool ghost gifts!
SPOOKTASTIC READING

My friend Jade sent me this book for Christmas. I am REALLY excited to read it. I had never heard of it before, but I knew Jade had sent me [...]

And we hope you enjoy the slower pace today brings…unless of course you have family galore and find yourselves rushing to and fro. (When we head home to Denver for the [...]
