For Halloween 2022, Netflix is rebooting two beloved TV classics, including The Munsters (in the form of a movie by Rob Zombie) and Wednesday (in the form of a series inspired by The Addams Family). That last one, in particular, is of interest. Maybe AddamsFest 2022 will be even moreContinue Reading
Thanks to the pandemic, CrimeCruise, which is the best of CrimeCon but on the water, took a bit of a vacation. But CrimeCruise will sail again in 2023. Specifically, April 30 through May 4 on Royal Caribbean’s Oasis of the Seas. Presale tickets went on sale July 18 for crimeHQ members.Continue Reading
The Museum of the Warrens, or the Warren’s Occult Museum as it was once better known, is no longer open. I never had the privilege of visiting to see the array of allegedly haunted and cursed objects that they collected during their investigations, such as the infamous man-killing Raggedy AnnContinue Reading
I guess there are a couple of things you could do when true crime has been your passion since junior high. You could always head in the wrong direction and start committing crimes yourself. Or you could be more productive and provide an environment where other people who love itContinue Reading
Did you capture any spiritualist phenomena during the COVID-19 pandemic? Even with in-person restrictions during lockdowns, photographer Shannon Taggart found a way to capture mediums at work using Skype, Zoom, and FaceTime.

Would you ever participate in a naked ghost hunt to raise money for the preservation of a haunted location? I figured such an event would flop. (Pun intended.) However, instead, it was a rousing success. As one ghost hunter who bared all put it, “We do it in the darkContinue Reading
There are a lot of reasons to attend Comic-Con Special Edition. One of them is the Destination Fear panel that was just added, especially if you’re a fan of the show. Unless something else gets added, it’s the only Travel Channel/discovery+ show with a panel at this special edition ofContinue Reading
Ever since the pandemic hit, Comic-Cons have been virtual. But Comic-Con Special Edition is a chance for fans to finally “gather in person as a community.” (For the first time since 2019!) Because of the current COVID-19 restrictions in California, it won’t be, as organizers out it, “the large gatheringContinue Reading
Are you a pumpkin/Jack-O-Lantern lover? If so, Dollywood’s Great Pumpkin LumiNights is well worth a visit when the park puts on its Harvest Festival. It’s a pumpkin lovers paradise! But it’s not just enjoyable at night. Or on sunny days. We visited on October 30, the last day of theContinue Reading
In 2020, a lot of paracons and horror fests found themselves pivoting and becoming virtual streaming events. But that went for cons of all kinds, including true crime ones. I’m not sure why CrimeCon has decided to do another At Home one this year, but it’s great for true crimeContinue Reading
Among the cool places we jaunted this year was Distortions Monster World. It’s a monster museum in Denver, Colorado, that showcases creations from the world-renowned “Monster Makers” at Distortions Unlimited. For Halloween season this year Distortions Unlimited and the award-winning production team at Blazen Illuminations have teamed up to presentContinue Reading
A lot of museums and historical societies host Halloween-themed events. Last year I thought the Pickering Museum Village’s haunted drive-thru ghost tour was pretty clever.
