Last month, shortly after I published, “A Mermaid in Nashville: Does She Live in Percy Priest Lake?,” I received an email from William Uchtman about the Nashville mermaid sighting. William sometimes contributes content to Haunt Jaunts. He’s a fellow Middle Tennessean who I’ve known pretty much since I started HJContinue Reading
Thanks to some of 2021’s new documentaries, like Ghost Adventures: Cecil Hotel and Netflix’s Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel, there’s been a lot of interest in L.A.’s Cecil Hotel. Namely, a lot of people want to know if you can still stay there. Not anymore. However, maybeContinue Reading
A few years ago, I had the pleasure of taking a ghost tour of Anchorage led by Ghost Tours of Anchorage owner and proprietor, Richard “Rick” Goodfellow. The other day I spotted an article from an unlikely source about the Anchorage ghost tour owner and a historian solving a trueContinue Reading
NOTE: On Aug. 21, 2021, I received an email from Steven Orfield alerting me to inaccuracies first reported in this post when it was published on Feb. 16, 2021. When I asked him if he had time to elaborate on what I got wrong, he graciously did. This post nowContinue Reading
One of the episodes that caught my eye in discovery+’s paranormal programming highlights for Feb. 1 through the 14 was Paranormal Caught on Camera’s “Mermaid in Nashville.” It began streaming on Friday, Feb. 5. I’d never watched an episode of Paranormal Caught on Camera before then because it had alwaysContinue Reading
2021 is starting off with two separate groups of scientists claiming they’ve solved the mysteries of both the Nazca Lines and the Dyatlov Pass Incident.

Turns out separate researchers studying each mysteryContinue Reading
During their investigation of the Cecil Hotel, the Ghost Adventures crew experienced a lot of paranormal activity. In a previous post, I shared what I thought three of the freakiest moments in the Cecil Hotel episode were. All included Patti Negri. Two involved the SLS camera detecting anomalies, the otherContinue Reading
I knew about some of the paranormal titles launching on discovery+ when the new streamer went live on January 4, 2021. However, I was confused. Even though it was touting itself as the “greatest collection of real-life entertainment” and claiming that when it launched it would have “the largest-ever contentContinue Reading
I don’t know if 2021 is the year of serial killer “Night Stalker” Richard Ramirez and the Cecil Hotel or not, but it’s starting to feel that way. Why? Great question! After all, the Cecil is closed and Ramirez is dead. So what gives? It’s because of the premiere of threeContinue Reading
At the beginning of every year, psychic Antonio Vazquez calls a press conference to share his political, economic, sports, and showbiz predictions for the year ahead. The press conferences are popular and well-attended, but how accurate are the Brujo Mayor’s (Grand Witch, or in his case since he’s male, Warlock)Continue Reading
The first time I talked with Josef from US Ghost Adventures, we left off with a tease promising a show devoted to Lily the haunted doll. Or their “Host a Ghost” as they call her. I had questions about Lily, first and foremost: Why do they advise not leaving herContinue Reading
Who knew the discovery of the Utah monolith in November would spark a worldwide monolith frenzy? There have been so many that Wikipedia now has a list of monoliths. Let’s take a look at this trend, which has been a pleasant diversion from the rest of 2020’s worries. A BriefContinue Reading
