The Betsy Ross episode of “Ghost Hunters” had barely aired when I started receiving emails.
People are asking me if Betsy Ross was a hoax, but I suspect that many are actually asking me about the TAPS team.
I’ll repeat my previous statement: I’ve known Jason and Grant for years. I trust them 100% and have no [...]
Austin, Texas is a wonderfully haunted city. Its ghosts are more colorful than most, with the kinds of histories you’d expect from a “wild west” city. In fact, many of Austin’s ghosts linger because they want to, not because they’re stuck in our earthly plane.
These are the five places that I’d visit with just a [...]
Many ghost hunters know a few haunted locations that consistently provide ghostly phenomena.
One of the largest and most haunted cemeteries in Portsmouth, NH fits that description.
South Street cemetery isn’t the official name of the location, but it’s what most people call it. This lovely, slightly eerie cemetery is at the intersection of South Street and [...]
Since my first Haverhill ghost investigation in 2008, people have asked me why Haverhill and vicinity are so haunted. There are many reasons. History may be part of it.
Why is Haverhill haunted?
Haverhill (pronounced “HAY-vuh-rill” or just “HAY-vrill”) has been the site of many significant events, including some gruesome history that is documented at [...]
On 17 June 2008, I was on the Ghost Chronicles International radio show as Ron Kolek’s co-host. Our guest was Christopher Balzano, the founder and lead investigator of Massachusetts Paranormal Crossroads. The topic was Pukwudgies.
During our conversation, I summarized our encounters with something similar at Vale End Cemetery in Wilton, New Hampshire. I’m [...]
On June 12, 2008, we returned to Gilson Road Cemetery in Nashua, NH. Except for a notable number of new houses and subdivisions in the area, little has changed… with one exception. The denser wooded area in back of the cemetery seems to provide the illusion of cover for the spirits who visit [...]
Late yesterday (12 June 2008), we returned to Gilson Road Cemetery in Nashua, NH. Our ghost hunting results were surprising. We’ll publish photos and more details, later, but here’s a summary of what we found:
We tried several kinds of dowsing rods to see what they indicated. The “hot spots” were somewhat predictable. [...]
Ghosts are seen and heard at the Texas Governor’s Mansion. That’s not news.
However, our deliberately blurred photo of the Mansion reveals some very interesting, possibly paranormal images. [Link: Austin - Texas Governor's Mansion photo.]
Many people sent us helpful comments. For example, several observant readers mentioned the ghostly apparition of the man at the tree.
The [...]
Bailey Cemetery in Portland, Maine has all the ingredients of a good, haunted cemetery. It has Colonial history, unmarked graves, and some neglected plots.
The location is great for Portland ghost enthusiasts who prefer sites that can be reached on foot or via Metro. (That’s local public transportation.)
Unfortunately, the cemetery’s location also makes it less [...]
On the northeast side of Portsmouth, at New Castle, a grand Victorian hotel overlooks sailboats, fishing boats and yachts.
For generations, the Wentworth Hotel, also called Wentworth-by-the-Sea, was a summer destination for wealthy families.
Built in 1874, this hotel was synonymous with ‘opulence’ through the 1960s. However, times changed and — by the late 1970s — [...]
