After I posted my entry about haunted travel sites yesterday, I came across yet another travel site: Roadside America, an online guide to offbeat tourist attractions. Its focus isn’t necessarily restricted to haunted places, though. It’s a smorgasboard of things. WHAT YOU CAN FIND ON ROADSIDE AMERICA As travel sitesContinue Reading

In yesterday’s post I mentioned how HauntJaunts.net is not a one-of-a-kind, there are other haunted travel sites out there. What are they? I listed them yesterday, but they’re worth noting again: THE OTHER HAUNTED TRAVEL SITES A Ghost in My Suitcase The Haunted Traveler TravelParanormal.com NOT SUCH A NOVEL CONCEPTContinue Reading

I’m planning a Haunt Jaunt to Florida’s Gulf County for July. When I was blogging at Families.com I wrote about Cape San Blas, a dog-friendly city in Gulf County. I’ve wanted to go ever since (and so has my pooch, Murphy). Wayne finally agreed that’s where we can take ourContinue Reading

Recently one of my Google Alerts included a press release that caught my eye for three reasons: (1) it was about a cruise (something I love to do), (2) it was about a cruise in New England and Canada (places on my Bucket List), and (3) it involved ghosts. MarkContinue Reading

Thanks to the Haunted Formula AutumnForest is working on over at Ghost Hunting Theories and Lisa Logan’s Where Would YOU Haunt guest blog, I can’t stop wondering: is there a law to becoming a ghost? You know, like the Law of Gravity, the Law of Attraction…is there a Law ofContinue Reading

The Times of India ran an interesting article recently called “Meet ghosts at a restaurant in Kolkata.” It was about P C Sorcar, a conjurer or magician, who’s planning to open a restaurant with ghosts, goblins and ghouls of every variety. Don’t worry. The ghosts aren’t real. They’ll be membersContinue Reading

Yesterday I saw an email from my good pal, Lisa Logan (who I introduced here last week who’ll be making a guest post), saying she’d given me a friendship blog award or some such on her blog, Writing in My Wildest Dreams. “Huh?” I thought, confused. See, I’d had aContinue Reading

Photo courtesy Stock Xchg Do we get to choose our Haunt Jaunts if we linger here in the afterlife? Or does the Haunt Jaunt choose us? I’ve had a fair share of ghostly experiences (like this one), and from what I’ve heard and seen, ghostly haunt spots usually make sense.Continue Reading

Just a heads up that author Lisa Logan is going to be making an appearance as a guest blogger on Haunt Jaunts. While I’d love to take the credit for this idea, I can’t. It was entirely her idea. She suggested it after reading one of the posts. She wasContinue Reading
