During the past year I’ve been noticing something kind of weird: old cemeteries in unexpected places. It’s actually very common to see old cemeteries around these parts, especially off of roads. But there are some that I’ve stumbled upon by accident. I never would’ve known they were there if IContinue Reading

It seems some parts of Australia have become somewhat “mean-spirited” when it comes to paranormal tourism. Some Aussies don’t seem to want ghost enthusiasts poking about their allegedly haunted places. EXHIBIT A: CLOSURE OF THE PICTON GHOST TOUR At the beginning of this year I wrote about the closure of the Picton GhostContinue Reading

It’s been almost 13 years since I went to Salt Lake City,  but it left an impression on me. Not only because of my spooky nights at the Shiloh Inn, but also because it was such a wonderful city to explore in the evenings after my work was done. I thoroughlyContinue Reading

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
