Hollow Hill is one of the Internet’s oldest and most-respected website for ghost hunters and paranormal enthusiasts.

OUR HISTORY

The website was founded in the mid-1990s as “Yankee Haunts,” when we specialized in haunted places in New England.

In 1999, we registered the domain name, HollowHill.com, and expanded our listings to include more of the U.S., plus Canada, the U.K. and Ireland.

Many of today’s top ghost investigators — including several celebrities — learned the basics of ghost hunting at Hollow Hill.

In late 2002, we moved our main office to Houston, Texas. During the following five years, most of our research focused on Louisiana and Texas. (During this time, Fiona Broome researched and wrote a book about the ghosts of Austin, Texas.)

In 2007, members of the Hollow Hill team resumed research in New England, and visited England for several ghost investigations.

In mid-2008, Hollow Hill’s main office is returning to coastal New England. We expect to continue research in the northeast. We’re also planning research trips to the UK, Ireland, Louisiana, and Florida.

OUR TEAM

Hollow Hill’s team members are a mix of experts and students from a variety of fields. They include police officers, karate instructors, research scientists and business executives.

Most team members have ‘day jobs’ in professional fields where their ghost hunting activities could cause controversy. For this reason, they choose anonymity at this website, or use pen names.

Our research team is loosely structured but highly professional and focused.

We’re led by the founder of Hollow Hill and Yankee Haunts, Fiona Broome, who often describes the group as a ‘happy anarchy’.

In addition to her ghost research, Fiona Broome is known for her studies in Celtic and pre-Celtic history and folklore.
