Check-In
Have you ever visited either the Kreischer Mansion in Staten Island or Earnestine and Hazel’s in Memphis?
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 haven’t been to either place, but I’m not a big traveler. I guess I enjoy traveling vicariously through other people’s adventures on television!
I thought maybe I’d gone to Earnestine and Hazel’s when we played in a USTA state championship once upon a time down there, but that wasn’t where we went after all. But hey. I like your form of travel! It’s cheaper and less exhausting and you can see so many more places! lol
