“Will Sci-Fi World really open this time?” That’s what I wondered when I wrote about the museum’s announcement that it was finally set to open on May 27, 2024. As I explained in that post, “It’s a valid question since this wouldn’t be the first time they announced an opening date.”Continue Reading
The “fun or frightening?” part of the title about Olympic mascots reeled me in. However, one sentence in particular sent me down the research rabbit hole. “Over the decades, the world has welcomed snowmen, sasquatches, cowboy-hat-wearing bears and aliens to the Olympic stage,” the CNN article reported. “Wait.

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
“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

“We’re already getting inundated with viewer photos of the Northern Lights,” one of the local meteorologists said during the 10 p.m. Friday news. “Look at all these sightings. Keep those pics coming.” Wait. What? We were really getting a chance to see the aurora borealis in Middle Tennessee? Clearly, fromContinue Reading
“Perhaps you’ve heard the old proverb that warns not to plant until after the ‘Three Ice Men’ have passed,” the Farmers’ Almanac article began. Um, no. That’s new to me. However, I’m also not much of a gardener. I may plant a few flowers or herbs in containers every year,Continue Reading

Last October, Spirit Halloween released three very creepy Hitchhiking Ghosts masks, one for each of them. I first learned about the forthcoming Haunted Mansion bar on a post about the masks. (Thanks again, Maria!) The bar’s official title is the Haunted Mansion Parlor, and it—along with Phineas, Ezra, and Gus—willContinue Reading
