Check-In
I’m trying an experiment this time: combining discovery+ and Travel Channel paranormal programming into one post. Do you like this format or do you like them separated out into two separate posts?
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.

I love Discovery+ channel. I like the price too. The shows are the best.
I think for the price they have so much great content. And I can finally start watching some of the shows you’re always in the know about now!
Combining them in one post is fine I think. It’s the subject matter, not the channel/streaming platform that unites them. I’m wondering what happened that made the Osbournes contemplate the possibility of time travel. How interesting!
GREAT point about the subject matter uniting them! That decides it for me then. THANK YOU!
Also, a very interesting observation about the Osbournes. I love the way you consider things. You’re making me look at things differently! This is another example of how!
