About

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

OUR HISTORY

In the mid-1990s, Fiona Broome began this website as “Yankee Haunts,” when she specialized in haunted places in New England.

In 1999, she registered the domain name, HollowHill.com, and expanded the site’s listings to include more of the U.S., plus Canada, the U.K. and Ireland.

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

In late 2002, Fiona moved to Houston, Texas. During the following five years, most of her research focused on Louisiana and Texas. (During this time, Fiona researched and wrote a book about the ghosts of Austin, Texas, and began her book about New Orleans’ French Quarter.)

In 2008, Hollow Hill’s main office returned to New England.

OUR TEAM

Today, 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, full-time moms, and business executives.

Most of our 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.

  1. Dear Fiona Your Website is awesome! Do you investigate places in Houston? There are quite a few spots here and i saw where you had moved to Houston. Keep up the good work!..

    • Hi Robert,

      Thank you!

      I was in Houston for about five years and thoroughly enjoyed my time there, including the many haunted locations around Houston. From downtown to Katy to Old Town Spring, Houston’s ghosts are quirky and fascinating!

      I will return regularly to Texas, and I hope to meet you during one of my research trips.

      Thanks again.

      Cheerfully,
      Fiona

      • Hi Fiona! That would be awesome to be able to meet you in person! To be able to “rub elbows” with you would be a feather in my cap in paranormal research! All of the places you named off have been really good spots for me as well.Honestly if one follows the guidelines you have laid out in your research, any place with spirits should produce good results. I hope you will send out your plans or even appearance notices in Houston when you do come back because i want to shake your hand….Robert
