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.
The Manitou Incline, the most physically demanding landmark in the United States, isn’t haunted. But it is located in Manitou Springs, Colorado, which does have some groovy haunted history. It also hosts the Emma Crawford Coffin Races every year. (You’ll find it listed under the “Weird & Wacky Fun” sectionContinue Reading
Is A24 on a mission to supply 2024 with some of its best thriller movies? If Civil War, MaXXXine, and Heretic are any indications, the answer is yes. When it hit theaters in April, Civil War both terrified and beguiled audiences and critics alike. (Probably because nearly everyone agreed thatContinue Reading
“Wait, wait, wait,” I said when I noticed where the link that a friend had shared with me led. Before that, all I’d been able to see was the video’s title: “Step inside the record-breaking Haunted Hotel! – Meet The Record Spookers.” Of course, I was interested in watching it,Continue Reading
“Who’s here for the ghosts?” our fun-loving madam polled our group before starting the tour. Less than half joined me in raising their hands. “Who’s here for the Goodtimes?” she asked. More hands went up than before. “Well, that’s good because I’ll warn you right now, there are more goodContinue Reading
Well, that didn’t last long. No sooner was the Nevada Monolith discovered than it was removed. But unlike when this happened in 2020 with its cousin in Utah, there’s no mystery surrounding who took the one near Gass Peak. Although, the mystery of who took the Utah monolith wasn’t really thatContinue Reading
The word “gripping” has been used to describe Lady in the Lake, the limited series that premieres on Apple TV+ on Friday, July 19. I’d say that description also applies to the trailer, along with “provocative,” “evocative,” “riveting,” “haunting,” and “shiver-inducing.” I experienced a “Wow. Just wow,” reaction after watchingContinue Reading
The Beast Within trailer has generated many comments, including my favorite from @TheAutumnWind_RN4L: “That’s all I wanted him to say in season 8 of GOT.” They were referring to a line near the 1:52 mark where Kit Harington roars, “Kneel before your king!” So many people (myself included) would’ve loved toContinue Reading
In November 2020, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources discovered a mysterious monolith in the desert during a survey of bighorn sheep. It caused quite a stir. No one knew how it got there or why. And what was it? Speculations ranged from an art installation to a portal toContinue Reading
Did you notice the question and number at the end of the MaXXXine trailer? What happens if you text it? Would you be taking a risk? Since it worked out okay last year when I texted “I want to play a game” to the number in the SAW X trailer,Continue Reading
“Birth of Rare White Buffalo in Wyo. Fulfills Lakota Prophecy.” You may have read that People headline (or seen another similar one) recently too. It sparked a “Say what now?” moment that definitely prompted me to click the link. And that’s all it took to tumble down a rabbit hole.Continue Reading
I’m late writing about this, so if you’re a diehard fan of the Prime Video series Fallout, you likely already know that you can “equip your vault” with awesome show merch from Amazon’s Fallout Store. We’re talking everything from collectibles and accessories to apparel and beverages. And of course games,Continue Reading
Do you remember the 1995 short documentary The Alien Autopsy? It purported to be found footage of an autopsy of one of the aliens from the Roswell incident. It created quite a stir at the time, largely influenced by the FOX Network, which aired Alien Autopsy: (Fact or Fiction?), aContinue Reading
