I’m always excited when I come across tourism departments that promote paranormal tourism. Today I discovered another one when I read an article published by The City Wire about the new “Haunted Arkansas” web page on the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism’s web site. Haunted Arkansas appears under theirContinue Reading

Are you familiar with something called “The Oprah Effect?” I’m not sure who coined the term, but CNBC’s Carl Quintanilla explored “how she turns no names into brand names.” I believe Syfy’s Ghost Hunters is having a similar effect, except not so much on no names as non-profits. More andContinue Reading

I just read “Does Your Pet See Ghosts?” on KYPost.com. It wasn’t a very big article, but it caught my eye because (a) it had to do with ghosts, and (b) it mentioned pets. Turns out Bobby Mackey’s Music World is opening it’s doors to pets to try their pawsContinue Reading

Earlier today I announced how I’m ceasing work on HauntJaunts.net the website (not the blog, just the website), but what I failed to do was mention some other haunted travel sites that I’d like to aspire to one day be like. (Well, some are not specifically travel oriented, but theyContinue Reading

Yes, I’m talking about that month of October when ghost tours, ghost hunting tours/classes, and haunted houses (of the variety that crop up around this time of year) move to the top of everyone’s To Do list. But something you don’t seeContinue Reading

Thanks to a recent issue of Woman’s World magazine, I came across some cool hotel and museum freebies. They could potentially be applied to any Haunt Jaunts you’d like to make. (Say to a Spooky Stay, Apparition Attraction or Historic Haunt.) VOLUNTEER REWARDS Do you do volunteer work anywhere? CompleteContinue Reading

A couple weeks back I wrote about FEARnet’s a Haunting in LA Sweepstakes. That Haunt Jaunt isn’t necessarily Halloween specific, although it does take place in October. But it did include something popular to do around Halloween, a ghost tour. It also gave the winner more than just one prize.Continue Reading

< p style=”text-align: center;”> I have Twitter to thank for introducing me to Scare for a Cure, a non-profit out of Austin, Texas, that “raises money for local cancer charities one scream at a time.” I figured it’d be a good thing to write about today. For one, Halloween isContinue Reading

I was very saddened to hear the news late last night that Patrick Swayze had finally succumbed to his cancer. Normally I wouldn’t write about a celebrity’s death, but he was in Ghost. I figured if nothing else I could tie that in with the usual theme of blog. ButContinue Reading
