Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
I joined America’s Haunted Road Trip network as soon as I found out about it. (Which was a while back. Sometime last year. I just don’t recall exactly when now…) Anyway, that doesn’t matter. What does matter is something neat they’re putting together for the upcoming Halloween season: a conference!Continue Reading
Spring Fever hits in more ways than one. As the weather warms up, people come out of hibernation and get more active. Not sure if the same goes for ghosts, but it sure seems to apply to ghost tours and ghost hunting excursions. Lately I’ve noticed more and more ofContinue Reading
Has Hollywood’s horror story novelty well run dry? I know sequels and remakes have been around for ages. I understand that some previously good movies made decades earlier find new fans in updated remakes. And I guess remakes are a safe bet. You know the demographics ahead of time. YouContinue Reading
I get the biggest charge out of Ask Doc Paranormal. He posts the most hilarious stories. Yet, they are also quite thought provoking. I finally got caught up on my blog reading and found a great one he’d posted a couple of weeks ago: “Tiny Insect Scares Predators Away ByContinue Reading
After reading the suicide threat posted on Old West Ghost Investigations website, writing a post and Tweeting and FBing about it for help, I actually got some! Facebook Fan Monica did some smart research and came up with a phone number for Melissa. Let me back up a sec. AfterContinue Reading
Okay, this is a cry for help on my part trying to figure out if (a) this is a joke, or (b) this is a legitimate cry for help and perhaps we can help this person. I guess the following email (pasted below) hit my inbox Monday. It’s been anotherContinue Reading
I forget how I started following Leonard Pickel, but I want to say Chad Savage of Sinister Visions was to blame. (I think I found Leonard via Chad’s Sinister Circuit somehow. Can’t quite remember.) At any rate, Leonard Pickel instantly piqued my interest. Why? If you’re a haunted attraction professionalContinue Reading
I’ve kind of been neglecting Movie Mondays lately. I haven’t come across many coming attraction trailers that have really gripped me. And I for sure have not come across any that have griped me as much as Phasma Ex Machina. My enthusiasm for it hasn’t faded one iota since IContinue Reading
When I welcomed soon-to-be Haunt Jaunts guest blogger Shanna Riley, I alluded to another anticipated guest blogger lined up thanks to Twitter. That guest blogger would be Jen Blaney (@JenBlaney). Much like Shanna, it was also because of a Tweet Jen sent me that I got the idea to extendContinue Reading
Okay, here it is: the official Guess the Number of Followers game I mentioned in my post about planning Haunt Jaunts 1 Year Anniversary Bash. HOW TO PLAY Leave a comment below with your guess about how many Twitter followers Haunt Jaunts (@HauntJaunts) will have come Tuesday March 30, 2010.Continue Reading
I don’t care what anyone says. Time waster that Twitter may be for some, it’s been a freaking connection gold mine for me. Haunt Jaunts has two more guest bloggers lined up because of it. The next one is set up for now under the mysterious/exotic sounding username “skatoolaki.” (AlsoContinue Reading
I want to be BFFs with Beyond Ghosts. These are my kind of people. I’ve been itching to write about them ever since I found out what Beyond Ghosts is really all about. Which was early last week. I actually knew of them before that, though, via Twitter (@BeyondGhosts). AndContinue Reading
