GHOST HUNTERS

As a psychic, when I instruct people on how to read objects, I advise them to forget what you intellectually know the object to be - color, quality, purpose, etc. Simply act as though this is an unknown thing of unknown origins. Let the object tell you what it is. For this post, I will be asking you to give up everything you've been told about the world a nd how it was settled and when you let that go - the world suddenly makes sense for the first time ever!  No more fitting intellectual square pegs into out-of-place-finds' round circles. We get lots of out of "place/out of time" finds and "primitive" looking human remains that confuse and confound archaeologists. Some people, trying hard to fit these finds into our history will attribute it to visitation by advanced civilizations from outer space. They are partly right ( advanced civilizations ). What if we were never visited by ancient aliens - but were visited by other civilizations that lived an...

Considering the beauty of Victorian Era homes, it's hard to believe that anyone leaves them abandoned and abused. I see them, and I imagine pastel paint, fresh decorative gingerbread trim, and deep wraparound porches. I also imagine going inside the abandoned building and poking around in the dark eerie rooms in its once beautiful splendor now rotting and moldy, creaking and haunted feeling. Source:   Born during the Industrial Revolution, they embraced new materials and technologies to create houses like no one had ever seen before. Mass-production and mass-transit made ornamental parts affordable. Victorian architects and builders applied decoration liberally, combining features borrowed from many different eras with flourishes from their own imaginations.       Valspar paints actually offer you paint selections for interior and exterior based on historic Victorian color palette.  Soft muted pastel tones ruled the colors of Victorian era, as well as some ...

This post is all about making it easy to decide what kind of ghost movie to watch or add to your collection and I'm doing it by the way I choose movies - what sort of ghost movie am I in the mood for?  So, I've categorized and helped you find the perfect fit for your mood and some of the titles fit into a couple categories, as well, which makes it a no-brainer to decide what to watch if you're in the mood for a couple categories and they contain a common movie or two. "Oh Crap! My House Is Haunted" The Amityville Horror:  A stepfather and his new family move into the home of their dreams to find out it is their nightmare. The Changeling: A widower rents a beautiful old historic home and discovers it's haunted by an unsolved murder decades ago. The Conjuring:   A couple of paranormal investigators/spiritual helpers assist a family with a haunted farmhouse. The Entity:   A single mother is tormented by an evil demon that abuses her. The Evil:  A couple buy a b...

In the heyday of the spiritualist movement of the Victorian Era, a man named George Colby wandered into the Florida glades, guided by a spirit guide, to found a homestead that incorporated in 1894 and called Cassadaga. It was said he had TB when he arrived and was looking for a healing.  He turned the area into a spiritualists' camp and the wealthy would come and get readings and connect with the dead. For a time, the place was considered the psychic capital of the world. By 1922, it had become the hub of spiritual retreats and had the biggest concentration of spiritualists in one area. Eventually the compound was ridiculed by preachers who admonished their flocks to avoid that "devil work." Today, spiritualists are trained there and it gives all kinds of gatherings, musicals and a bookstore. The place ended up in one of my favorite book series " Weird USA ."  One group of religious fanatics marched to Cassadaga’s Temple during services and stood outside prote...

(My Steampunk Ghost costume) What was up with the Victorian Era? The period from the late 1800s to early 1900s were fraught with very dark, death-and-spirit-oriented artistic expression in their photography. It was morose and at the same time, carried a good deal of humor and magic. Queen Victoria set the pace with a 40-year mourning period for her lost love, wearing black, and setting extensive mourning practices for the people of the time by setting a trend to basically fear and never get over death or let those who died truly pass on.  Mourning etiquette was laid out officially to know how to mourn depending on the relationship. Funerals and memorials were elaborate and the wearing of mourning clothing could last for extensive amounts of time depending on who had passed on.  Let's look at some of the weird trends - Headless pics - this was a preoccupation with photography tricks.  The Victorians also enjoyed humor and costumes in their photos - they were extremely ecce...
