My husband and I used to spend the night at the morgue. It wasn't a morbid fascination. It was an easy part time job. The job didn't require much. You just had to be there. If a body came in when the day staff was gone, you had to check it in and move it to the freezer. ...
As a young girl, I found a copy of William Blatty's The Exorcist and read it in less than two days. It was the most engrossing and horrific book I had ever read. I still have never found its equal. The book itself was beautifuly written and terrifying, but what made it even more scary was what...
I did a lot of research before I came up with this list. I read many other lists of the top ten best ghost movies and reviewed my favorites and their merits. I have to say that one thing I learned reviewing so many of these lists is that these lists are all very different and because of that I admit that this...
Ghost, Cam de LeonAt its core, the desire to find ghosts and understand the paranormal world is driven by the desire to understand death and what happends after death. It is fueled by a primal need to know what is unknown to us and to make sense of forces we can't understand. Paranormal researchers and ghost hunters...
I travelled to Athens, Alabama today where I visited the oldest college in Alabama and took pictures of the University's haunted halls. Athens State University was founded in 1822 and is haunted by numerous ghosts. These ghost's story tell the the story of the history of the school. ...
I can wander cemeteries alone at night and sleep alone in haunted hotels. I can wander through medieval castles in the dark on ground where blood soaked battles have been fought, but I am absolutely terrified of bathrooms. I'm ok if the bathroom has been cleaned recently, but public restrooms can induce panic and I have to...
Yet another rejection letter lands in my lap. That's two this week. Still, another two have gone out to redress the balance. Done my Writers' Club homework so I'm more-or-less up to date with my writing.It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to be always right by having no ideas at all.Edward de B...
Chicago is home to many chilling ghost stories. From haunted airports, to haunted theaters, to chilling castles, and shadowy graveyards. Chicago is a ghost hunter's dream. It's history is filled with fascinating characters, gangsters, and fires and this history has helped to paint the corners of the windy...
Merrimack hall is tucked neatly away in the West end of Huntsville. The building itself seems oddly out of place here. It is surrounded by tacky strip malls and modern buildings that all appear a bit shabby and rundown. The road in front of it is loud and busy. Everything about this part of West Huntsville is dingy and colorless....

As I have gotten to know other bloggers out there and read their blogs, I have realized that I do not know the most on the world of the paranormal.

I'm ashamed to say that one of the main reasons I moved away from Murfreesboro, TN was because there was no shopping and few good restaurants there. Of course, there were many other reasons to leave Murfreesboro. There are so any reasons I won't even begin to list them, but the food was one of the biggest...
I had a marvelous day today. My boys and I went on a ghost hunting adventure that was more fun than we had planned on. We went to one of the most haunted places in North Alabama to take pictures for the new book. I have been warned by my publisher not to give everything that is going to be in the book away...

Another rejection letter lands in my postbox.Time for another morale-boosting quote.Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid.John Ke...
As I was wandering the internet today, I found a wonderful holiday that has been left out of American tradition. In America, we embrace all cultures and pull their traditions into our own culture and make it our own. I believe we should do the same for Krampus Day.Krampus is part of Austrian and Hungarian folklore...
One of the most famous haunted places in Northern Alabama has almost become legend. It is so well known that I have never blogged about. I've assumed that I can add no more to the story than what has already been told. I had a conversation about Sloss several nights ago and realized that there are some places...
Orlando, Florida is the home of virtually every overpriced, oversized theme park available. People from all over the world fly into this hot, overcrowded city hoping to fine the happiest place in the world. They come for Disney World, Universal Studios Orlando, The Epcot Center, and SeaWorld. They go to Orlando to leave the...
As a paranormal enthusiast who seeks to travel to the most haunted and ghostly places in the world, the first places I usually think of travelling to are old castles, ancient cemeteries, or houses with long histories and dark shadows. I think of finding the voodoo of the Caribbean islands or the catacombs of the old cities...
Quote of the day:You must keep sending work out; you must never let a manuscript do nothing but eat its head off in a drawer. You send that work out again and again, while you're working on another one. If you have talent, you will receive some measure of success – but only if you persist.Isaac Asi...
I love to travel. Every journey is an adventure and I plan my trips carefully so that I can see as many new things as possible. As I begin plans for our summer trip, I have also begun looking at ghost stories and folklore from all the areas I'm considering visiting. Jamaica is high on my list and...
I met an old woman the other night. She was scattered and talked too much. Her hair was disheveled and all of her clothes seemed to be slightly askew. She was the type of lady that many people ignore, but if you stopped and listened to her, her stories were some of the most mesmerizing...
I'm working the night shift tonight. I don't usually work the night shift, but I thought I'd do something different this week. At night, when most of the staff have fled the psychiatric floor and you are left alone with two nurses and a few patients, you hear things you would never notice during the day. ...

When most people think of the atrocities of World War II, they think of the Germans. They think of the German concentration camps and the genocide that occurred within them. They think of the inhuman Nazi experiments and the ability within the Nazis to commit acts that seem impossibly cruel. Most people...
Thanks to womagwriter for encouraging me to get on and write that story anyway. My sister-in-law actually told me some other stuff which happened about fifty years ago.

The Detroit Institute of Arts(DIA) is one of my favorite places. I was an art major at Wayne State University and several of our projects involved going to the museum and studying the art there.
