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.
Continuing the Friday Fun Black Friday Shopping Spree, I decided to put together a list of products I’ve come across that would make unique Christmas gifts. These would make excellent presents for those people in your life that are either (a) hard to buy for because they have everything, orContinue Reading
I’m not much of a shopper, but ’tis the season when shopping’s on everyone’s To Do list isn’t it? So, in an effort to make it fun, I thought I’d spend Black Friday preparing for Cyber Monday. (If I can avoid the crowds via the convenience of the Internet toContinue Reading
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I happen to love Thanksgiving. (And this year more than ever before boy howdy do I have a TON to be thankful for!) But I also know Thanksgiving can bring on a lot of pressures with the family commitments, cooking, eating, not toContinue Reading
If all has gone as planned, today we should be docked in Key West. (I must confess. I actually wrote this before we left to post while we’re gone. That’s why the “if all has gone as planned” statement.) At any rate, I thought since I was in Florida, I’dContinue Reading
It’s another two-fer today for Movie Monday. This second movie trailer, The Message, also came to my attention via a follow on Twitter (by @TheMessageMovie). I don’t know what to make of it. Here’s the tagline: “Does God really want you?” I’m not usually a big fan of movies withContinue Reading
This week’s Movie Monday trailer clip, Underground, came to my attention thanks to @NewHorrorFilm following me on Twitter. It reminds me of a cross between C.H.U.D. and the Descent…except these underground beasties live in an underground military bunker. I can’t quite discern from the trailer how the group of friendsContinue Reading
Tomorrow Wayne and I leave on our cruise to Key West, Florida, and Nassau, Bahamas. After our trip to Cape San Blas earlier this year, I learned I didn’t do enough due diligence about haunted places there before we left. I changed my strategy this go around. I used theContinue Reading
As I told Chad Savage when he said he finally had time to answer my questions and to send ’em on over, I’m a HUNORMOUS fan of this man’s work. (I initially contacted him at the end of September/the beginning of October. a.k.a. An extremely busy time for anyone involvedContinue Reading
Strap on your hiking boots, folks. We’re off to Haunt Jaunt with Marianne O’connor, author of Haunted Hikes of New Hampshire. You might recall Ms. O’connor’s book was one of the prizes in my fiberdoodles-inspired Halloween Blog Party Giveaway. I mentioned back then that I’d be interviewing her. True toContinue Reading
Monday I wrote that I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if eventually the existence of an Abominable Snowman is proved. Imagine my excitement when I came across this video! They find a snowman…and it’s abominable all right! (But one thing I never saw coming…I never expected a suburban version!)Continue Reading
Recently I wrote about Warehouse on the Canal after a nice gentleman sent me some info about this allegedly haunted location in Canal Fulton, Ohio. I had sent an inquiry for more info directly to the owners on November 9. I was in such a hurry to write about itContinue Reading
< p style=”text-align: center;”> By TwitterIcon.com Today Haunt Jaunts hit what I think is an impressive mark. I say that because when I started Tweeting back in September I saw friends with 400+ followers and thought, “Wow. Maybe in a year that’ll be me.” Not that all of them hadContinue Reading
