Ninety-nine years ago yesterday Titanic struck an iceberg just before midnight on April 14, 1912. When it sank a short time later, at 2:20 a.m. on April 15, 1912, it claimed the lives of over 1,500 people. Last September we took a 10-day Canada/New England cruise. We started in New York and ended in QuebecContinue Reading
I first learned about Spook Hill in Lake Wales, Florida when I was a little girl. For those who are old enough to remember the show That’s Incredible! perhaps you, too, saw the episode where it was featured. Apparently it made an impression. Over twenty years later I thoughtContinue Reading
Not only have I met a ton of neat people this past year, I’ve been to a lot of neat places. Some were places I never expected to go. A couple were on my Bucket List. Since it’s Wednesday and I’ve tried to feature images for Wordless Wednesdays this past year,Continue Reading
Once upon a time Jessica Penot of Ghost Stories and Haunted Places wrote “The Paranormal Blunderer: What You Shouldn’t Do When You’re a Paranormal Tourist,” a funny guest blog I could very much relate to. I got to thinking about it and some of the travel mishaps I’ve had after GhostlyObsessions leftContinue Reading
The following is a guest post by William Uchtman aka @Thor_2000 on Twitter. If there is one thing I have noticed about haunted houses, it’s that the typical haunted house shares the same sort of inventory with the next haunted house. One can basically take an inventory of all the usualContinue Reading
< p style=”text-align: center;”> Before we left for our Western Caribbean cruise I knew I wanted to get a digital waterproof camera. I learned on our other Caribbean cruise (that time to Key West and the Bahamas) that it was a pain to get film developed for disposable waterproof cameras.Continue Reading
I had bought a new camera, a Sony Cybershot with 7x optical zoom, last August before we departed on our 10 day Canada/New England cruise. I loved my little Canon but the lens had been acting up. (Sometimes it was getting stuck upon start up which caused the camera notContinue Reading
Last Sunday after we checked our bags at our hotel and prepared to explore the French Quarter I hoped my ancestors would find a way to speak to me. It appears they did, though not in a way I was expecting at all. Wayne and I opted to do theContinue Reading
When I made my list of haunted travels in store for Haunt Jaunts in 2011 I didn’t list any cruises. I didn’t think we’d be taking a cruise this year. I was looking forward to Vegas, but now it looks like Vegas is a no go and instead we’ll be taking aContinue Reading
The skies were overcast as we docked in Saguenay on September 14, 2010, but it did not make for a gloomy backdrop. The locals wouldn’t let it. Here are some images, both video and pictures, of this charming community where it’s rumored that about now, in the depths of winter, ghosts andContinue Reading
I love visiting museums whether they’re haunted or not. However, check out what I’ve discovered: paranormal museums! Five of them, in fact. John Zaffis Museum of the Paranormal – I found out about this from a post on Ghost Lounge some time back. John Zaffis has collected all kinds of supposedly haunted artifacts duringContinue Reading
This past Halloween I saw something I hadn’t seen in Halloween’s past: debates surrounding ghost tours and haunted houses. Specifically, people protesting them and working to shut them down because they felt they’re disrespectful and/or not politically correct. In year’s past there has been a religious element against ghost tours andContinue Reading
