When Dane Whitehead of Phasma Ex Machina asked if I’d be interested in being a part of their “6 Questions With” series, I thought that was cool enough. But today I finally had a chance to check emails. (We have friends in and then we got all this snow I’ve just had to play with. [...]

Just in time for Friday Fun my friend Brenda sent me a fun email with a sort of ghostly looking image of Albert Einstein. Or is it really Marilyn Monroe?
If you’re looking at it from close range, like while you’re seated right in front of your computer, it looks like Albert.
But if you get up [...]

Thanks to one of my Google alerts, I stumbled upon a new-to-me blog I figured some of the rest of you might like to know about if you don’t already: Ghost Lounge.
The post that came up in my “paranormal travel” Google alert was “Whatever Happened to ‘Most Haunted’ on the Travel Channel?”
I was kind of [...]

A big shout out goes to Autumnforest for sending me this link: http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/videos/feeds/cv-seo/Science–Technology/American-Paranormal/.
American Paranormal sort of quietly burst on the scene, but it’s slowly gaining buzz as it spreads from blogger to blogger and paranormal enthusiast to paranormal enthusiast. There’s two episodes so far:
Haunted Prison, which is an investigation of Eastern State Penitentiary where “scientists [...]

ATrueOriginall left a comment on one of my other posts with an interesting observation. It was in reference to a mention I made onĀ “Noteworthy Blogs: GhostTheory”. In that post I listed some specific GhostTheory articles which I felt made that a noteworthy blog, including “Donna Lacroix Talks: Secrets Behind Ghost Hunters.”
In his article, Javier [...]

A while back I wrote about the Ghost Hunters effect being an Oprah-esque boon for paranormal tourism. Ghost Hunters has certainly sparked the imaginations of the masses. Smart non-profits found a way to cash in on that by offering ghost hunts to help supplement their revenue streams.
However, during my talk with Brooke, SCARED!’s case manager, [...]

If you’re thinking I already covered Dark Moon Rising on Movie Monday once before, you’re not mistaken. I did. For a refresher, click here.
However, last week the movie’s writer/director, Dana Mennie, stopped and left a comment on that post. (Which I copied and pasted below.) He shared some additional info about Dark Moon Rising that [...]

The Booth House in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, which locals also know as the “Haunted Cottage of Harpers Ferry,” is about to get a new moniker when it’s opened to the public as the Paranormal History Museum and Paranormal Studies Training Center.
Yep, it’s finally happened. A place dedicated to paranormal investigations. How long have I [...]

I can almost hear some of you moaning, “Please, Courtney, stop! You’re killing us. Enough with the ghost hunting shows already. Haven’t you covered them ad nauseam this week? Do you really need to tell us about another one?”
Yep.
This one’s a little bit different from Paranormal Cops, Believers or Ghost Adventures though. (Wow, I really [...]

I found a neat blog the other day: Paranormal Videos: Mysteries, Ghost Videos & Stories.
They sort of do something a bit different from the rest of the blogs I follow. While they, too, write about ghosts, haunted places, mysterious beasts and UFOs, they include videos with their write-ups.
To give you an example of what I [...]
