Are you an enthusiastic ghost hunter or paranormal investigator? Do you have experience giving tours? How’d you’d like to make money putting those skills to work in one of America’s most haunted places? The Lizzie Borden House recently announced they’re hiring for nightly ghost hunts of the house.
Earlier this summer I had a chance to talk with Azure Hall, the communications director from US Ghost Adventures, about their Lizzie Borden House acquisition. At that time she eluded to, but couldn’t elaborate on, some things they intended to do at the house when Spooky Season drew nearer. I’m thinking this is one of them!
Let’s check out the job description, duties, qualifications, compensation, and where and how to apply.

Check-In
If you could work in a haunted place would you, and which one would you want to work at?
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.
