GHOST HUNTERS

( This picture wouldn't have happened if I didn't get a divorce ) I'm very much into a universal picture of things. I try to pull back and see the bigger scene. Because of life experiences and past history counseling people with anxiety disorders, I've learned a lot about life; if it were on a scope, it'd look kind of like this - Good things, bad things, mediocre things happen every day, every week, every month, every year, every decade in a fluctuating chaos. Still, people kick and scream against something that is part of nature, like the sun rising or rain falling. Do you really want your life to be a flat line? Bad things beget good things. Good things beget bad things.We never catapult into a chain of events without having something rather significant happen to us, usually something bad that spurs us on. We can actually give thanks to the fact that in our lifetimes, at some point we lose loved ones, we lose jobs, we get sick or divorced. As crazy as that sounds,...

Blogger help is no help. I complained multiple times about a psycho person who is using my name and my blog's name and stealing things from my blog, trying to comment on my blog with nonsensical obscene comments and going onto other blogs using my blog's name and leaving insane comments. Blogger's help? NONE! They are aiding a person who is impersonating and stealing and tormenting bloggers. Blogger is grossly neglectful. You must know that Blogger will not help you. This psycho person goes onto many blogs, signing on with my blog's name and leaving comments. If you get a comment from Ghost Hunting Theories and a disgusting naked profile pic, it is not me. I am Autumnforest. This person is not only an imposter, but is very likely stealing your blog's pictures, names, doing disgusting things with them, going onto other blogs using your blog's name. She has done this to many sites she comments on. I have her name and number and address if you would like it. We are...

It is believed Leif Erickson the Viking might have been the first European to see a Bigfoot when he landed in Newfoundland around 1000 AD, describing encounters with huge hairy men, with a horrible odor and  piercing shrieks. L'Anse aux Meadows is a Newfoundland archaeological site found in the 1960s. This is the only known village settlement by the Vikings in this area around 1000 AD. That region was inhabited by Native people from back to 6000 BP. Native people who surely had dealt with the local Bigfoot.   Is it possible that the Vikings landed on a continent that had two tribes? One Native American and one being Bigfoot? If and upright human-like being can manage to stay well hidden from man, showing a good degree of intelligence, then when we refer to Bigfoot, are we not referring to the "other" tribe of the Americas?

First, the dude chewing the other dude's face off. Now, another bizarre almost zombie-like attack. They all defy logic, but obviously there is some drug out there on the streets that is making people absolutely lose it. In Hackensack , NJ, a man stabbed himself repeatedly in front of officers and then proceeded to throw his intestines at them. Pepper spray didn't work. They called in the SWAT team to help subdue him and get him to the hospital.

I hear a lot of women lamenting about men and I do admit that in my almost 2 years of singledom, I have run into some real pieces of work from married men with no qualms about saying they're in love with another woman to men who kiss and run. As well, I've run into men who never got over their past mistakes and were haunted still decades later and those hoping to replace their ex-wife with another "mommy" to cook and care for them. Of course, not all men are awesome, but they have some awesome attributes and I can honestly say that the majority of them have an amazing capacity to love and a deep desire for someone to just appreciate them. Here's just some of the awesomeness that I admire: Men are more likely to be willing to sit and talk about paranormal subjects all night long, how the universe came to be, what other dimensions might be like, and what we would do in a zombie apocalypse. They stimulate my mind. Men are more likely to laugh at themselves and crazy...

(surveillance shot) Real life is freakier than anything we can dream up. Case in point? This Miami Story: "Miami police shot and killed a man on the MacArthur Causeway Saturday afternoon, and police sources told CBS4 they had no choice: the naked man they shot was trying to chew the face off another naked man, and refused to obey police orders to stop his grisly meal. ...Officers found one man gnawing on the face of another, in what one police source called the most gruesome thing he’d ever seen." At that point, the police officers shot the zombie once, but he continued feeding on the other man's face. They were forced to shoot him again, which mercifully killed him. Then they sought to aid the victim whose face was already mostly eaten off. "With the attacker dead, lying nude on the pavement, officers and paramedics were able to get to his victim and rush him to Jackson Memorial Hospital. Police sources say the man had virtually no face and was unrecogni...

Tonight on Animal Planet is a wicked cool special called "Mermaids: The Body Found" It's a really great 2-hour special. Do not miss it! "A team of scientists testifies that they found the remains of a sea creature with ties to human origins - a modern day mermaid. They claim a massive government cover-up is currenly hiding the creature's existence from the general public."

Of the many people who have bought our book, we have received many varying compliments from, "why hasn't someone done this sooner--it's so obvious and so true!" to "the style of the book is like nothing I've ever seen." We not only wanted to put in horror, humor and social commentary, but Julie and I also wanted to portray a kind of online look that is sexy, easy and fun to read and varied so that you never get bored between narrative, interviews, tips, photos and captions. It is our hope to bring to the printed publishing industry a new look and feel that is suitable for the online crowd. We want pretty books for our shelves and ones that break up the lengthy content of most books into something that is do-able in  small bits. We only have so much time to read, so having a page that is varied makes it possible to say "Ah, I can read until the next large capital letter or the next icon and then stop." Art should be a part of books, as well. We ...

Julie and I went to ComicCon yesterday. Wow! Huge!  Tons and tons and tons of people and costumes. Here's just some of the fun - Here we are with the hordes of attendees down below -   You know you've  been there for hours when a conversation like this is just typical. Arizona Ghostbusters were there--always a fantastic and playful gang that does wonderful charity work.   Our buddies from the Department of Zombie Defense were there. This guy was just another example of the totally cool horror stuff - Scary bunny with an axe - Me trapped in a zombie crate -  Just some of the huge crowd - A typical attendee - And sadly, in these hard times, even a superhero needs some cash- We had a total blast. it was really a very fun event! P.S. If any of y'all have read our book, please go on Amazon and give us a review. We really want the feedback. Thanks!

On a bluff hundreds of feet above the sea, Heceta Head Lighthouse in Oregon is not only a paranormal vacation destination, but a wonderfully luxurious, romantic, and gothic retreat.     The tower is 56 feet tall with a focal plane of 205 feet above sea level. The most powerful light along the Oregon coast, the light can be seen 21 miles out to sea. It first came on in 1894. If you wanted to go there this summer, you're in for some sad news. The waiting list can be 3 months long for this bed and breakfast that serves a 7-course gourmet breakfast. The cookbook can be found here . Stories have been spread about it being haunted. It has had some unusual activity, but no explanation for its origins.  The Lady in Gray, or Rue as she is now known, was the wife of an assistant light keeper in the 1890s. It is said that her young daughter drowned in the local estuary or the ocean and, in despair, the mother committed suicide. The location of the young girl's...

Julie and I are heading out to ComicCon in Phoenix to check out the horror crowd and the fantastic zombie folks! We plan on reporting back with pics and videos. We hope to make some great connections and do some promotion for your Zombie Housewives of the Apocalypse book and our fantastic publisher, Black Bed Sheet Books. The book is selling very briskly and we can thank all the people who are hip and wise and realize being in on a new and fresh genre is a book reader's goal. Expect 3 more books coming up the series that will look equally sexy on the bookshelf and be amazingly satisfying to read.

Elijah Jefferson Bond was a lawyer and an inventor ( aren't those two always associated? ) He invented many things, but was best known for the patent for the Ouija Board in May 28, 1890. To learn more about his life and his Kennard Novelty Company, go here . The Ouija board has been utilized in a ridiculous amount of horror movies and just some of them are; The Uninvited, Thirteen Ghosts, The Exorcist, Awakenings, What Lies Beneath, Paranormal Activity, Amityville 3-D, Witchboard, and Only You. In 1966, his estate sold his company and its games to Parker Brothers. which was sold to Hasbro and hence the Ouija spirit boards we know today. In the Green Mount Cemetery in Maryland, Elijah Bond was laid to rest with a Ouija Headstone. If they had laid it flat instead, one might have been able to converse with him...

Yeah, Julie and I are at it again and it was just another day of book-making insanity.... Even Clive gave into the madness. We took some shots of Julie's character toking, using the oregano fake reefer and the pizza dude showed up. I tried to usher him onto the front stoop to pay him, concerned that he could smell the burning oregano -- which smells a lot like pot. It might have been the first time in history a person got paranoid NOT smoking pot. I'd also like to thank everyone who has purchased the book on Amazon and who has given us such wonderful compliments. It's a fun book, a crazy book, and the most beautiful book ever. We are very proud and we promise the 60s one takes the concept to a new level that reads like an insane history book involving 60s zombies in the center of all the cultural issues of the times.

My first experience with a haboob was when I was 14. I had just moved to Arizona and had no idea that they got weather that was just dust! I was outside looking at a coming storm in the distance in 118-degree heat, and wishing for some rain. I noticed the desert got a nasty smell before a rain. For a gal who grew up in green territory, coming rain was clean and fresh. This smell was pungent and funky. I later came to find out it was the oils in the creosote bushes being released into humid air. A sign of a coming monsoon storm. Our monsoons, however, begin with a wall of dust that is part of the wind gusts of the coming storm. The longer it's been since the last rain, the taller that wall of dust! I watched a funny orange cloud in the distance slowly engulf street signs and light poles and homes until it was upon me without warning. I was sandblasted hard. A few weeks later, I was sicker than I've been in my whole life. The dusts in the desert also carry a fungus that can cause...

Gaps in our evolution, visitations from aliens, cattle mutiliations, alien abductions, genetic manipulation by grays. ... The ancient Sumerians might have been onto something. From this fantastic post about it: The Sumerians had a most unusual belief in how humans came about because it sounds more like science fiction than mythology. They believed that intelligent creatures came from another planet and created us from a combination of their DNA and the DNA of prehistoric man. They called DNA "essence" and in their ancient writings (the Sumerians were the first to create written language) say about prehistoric man's essence: "Akin to ours it is, like two serpents it is entwined" We are all familiar with the symbol of entwined snakes. The symbol is used later by the Egyptians as a staff carried first by Iris and then Hermes. Greek mythology also incorporates the symbol. The symbol has adorned the walls of our hospitals since long before we knew DNA sha...

We had an amazing rainstorm the other day here in AZ. No big deal to most folks, but I literally had not seen rain in daylight hours in about 7 or 8 months at least. It was wonderful. The problem with living in the desert, though, is that we have arroyos (washes) that fill up quite quickly because the hard-baked ground will not absorb the water. For some reason, we have no storm drains to speak of. In fact, the roads are pitched to be high in the center, low on the sides, so if you're in the slow lane, you're SOL. There is also something very necessary here that makes other states laugh. We have a Stupid Motorist Law. This basically says, if you try to cross a running wash and get stuck in your car, you have to pay the fees associated with hauling your ass out. Don't you wish we had more stupid laws?  Which stupid law would you like to see on the books for your state?

I went back to the abandoned trailer park again -- all the trailers were gone except the skeleton of the main one and all the litter was strewn across the desert floor with the sun setting.

Last night, my buddy John and I took his huge awesome custom telescope out into the desert to see lots of cool stars and galaxies. We set it up at the abandoned trailer park site I have filmed at before (new film and pics coming soon--amazing place!)  We were out there hours in the pitch black, silent desert and decided it was about time to take down the telescope and go. John went to the car to get some tools and I looked up to the southwest and saw an orange light. It was gorgeous. I then saw it go out, but another one came on even closer to me. Then, it went out and another one came on closer to me again and I called John. He looked up to see this happen 2-3 more times.  We didn't know what to think. I knew it was something very unusual. There was no sound, no planes in the sky or anything that could explain the source. I rushed to get my flipcam just in case it came back. He began to take down the telescope. I looked up and saw the orange light turn on again in a slightly...

I'm biased, but hell, you can't get better than social commentary, sexiness, a full-color book, hilarity, a new premise, a zombie-lovers crazy trek through a new genre. 1950s housewives, Stella (the ideal June Cleaver wife) and Liz (the drunken slutty divorcee) think they live the same day over and over again. So, when they become zombies during the apocalypse, they really do live the same suburban life as if nothing has happened. They now have an excuse for their mindless lives--they truly are walking dead. A dead woman's work is never done. Enjoy Zombie Housewives of the Apocalypse. The fan club is growing and the 1960s housewives book comes out next--making the entire decade of the 1960s truly a dead-head generation. The housewives' blog.

AWESOME NEWS:  Zombie Housewives of the Apocalypse is being translated for the Japanese market!

Those in the Bigfoot online community might have noticed an absence of Autumnforest and many more people like me who want to have intelligent dialogue about something of great anthropological and social significance.  Here's the basic reason: You can't argue with the village idiot because it's not going to make him smarter. I left because of the massive troll hits on such sites and the fact that there was no discussion, only immature bullying by vague anonymous people who hide behind having no name or face so they can just take pot shots at everyone else. These little men are pathetic creatures and a fine example of why we might not be ready as a society for the introduction of Bigfoot into our accepted family. I've watched some wonderful contributors in the field retreat, especially the female population in the Bigfoot world who have taken some of the worst threats and bullying. It has come to my conclusion that when Bigfoot is proven and recognized by our society, he ...

Chiller channel starting today begins a zombie-themed week that will culminate in the premiere of George Romero's "Survival of the Dead" on Friday night. I'm sooooo ready for this-- are you?

Some folks are Stephen King worshippers, others Brian Keene or John Saul. For me, the ultimate is Richard Matheson. What an amazing original mind! Here's just some of his works - The Incredible Shrinking Man A Stir of Echoes I Am Legend Hell House Duel Many episodes of Twilight Zone Hammer Films Trilogy of Terror What Dreams May Come The Thing The Night Stalker The Night Strangler He has done so many scripts, books and short stories, inspiring so many TV shows and movies, that his effects are wide-ranging and so very original and ahead of their times.

Wikipedia: Mothman is a legendary creature reportedly seen in the Point Pleasant area of West Virginia from 15 November 1966 to 15 December 1967. The first newspaper report was published in the Point Pleasant Register dated 16 November 1966, entitled "Couples See Man-Sized Bird...Creature...Something" On Nov. 15, 1966, two young couples from Point Pleasant, Roger and Linda Scarberry, and Steve and Mary Mallette told police they saw a large white creature whose eyes "glowed red" when the car headlights picked it up. They described it as a "flying man with ten foot wings" following their car while they were driving in an area of town known as 'the TNT area', the site of a former World War II munitions plant. During the next few days, other people reported similar sightings. Two volunteer firemen who sighted it said it was a "large bird with red eyes". Mason County Sheriff George Johnson commented that he believed the sightings were due to...

Thanks sooooo much for the great reviews. People are even buying copies for their family members so they don't have to share. "Zombie Housewives of the Apocalypse" is getting a fantastic reception from the public and people are digging this most unusual genre, unusual premise. Even Dale the Doll is a #1 fan.

Class A EVPs are rare and precious finds. An EVP is "electronic voice phenomena" and this occurs when one is recording under controlled conditions and plays back the recording to hear something said that was not said during the recording session. If a good EVP specialist controls the sound situation and tags every explainable sound heard by his hears, then what he gets on his recordings that cannot be accounted for is exciting territory. Here are classifications commonly used: Class A: Voice saying something that, when others hear it without prompting, hearing the same phrase. Class B: Voice-like, but different listeners might hear different words/phrases. Class C: A noise. Since joining the team I'm a part of, I have learned to admire the EVP specialist on the team. He researches extensively, uses logic, and questions everything. I so admire his evidence, that I want you to listen to some of the Class A EVPs he has procured. Listen here. We still don't understand ...

Julianne Moore is slated to play the part of Carrie's mother in the upcoming remake of "Carrie." I'm not quite sure why the movie needed to be redone yet, again, but apparently like the reality TV trend keeps us from having original show concepts, so it goes with the moviemaking industry these days. In case you're wondering, Carrie will be played by Chloe Moretz, who was also in "Dark Shadows."
