How to Find Haunted Locations – Plus 4 Locations that Are Almost Always Haunted

I love ghosts and to investigate but all haunted home or building owners say I am too young to investigate paronormal activity.

Hi Jimmy. If you are under age 18, you will have a very hard time convincing property owners to allow you to investigate. Since you are underage, the property owner cannot hold you legally liable for any damage(s) to the property. Plus, your parents could sue the property owner for allowing you to investigate as a minor. If you are under 18, please take an adult with you. (An adult is defined as someone who is 18 or older. This is "legal age" in the U.S.)

Michelle may have other options for you, but I've found that the best way for young people to get started in investigation, (early teen to Midteen) is to start in your own home. Even if you've never experienced anything paranormal in your home before, you still may catch moving cold spots or moving EMF's. It's a great way to get used to handling the equipment and to get hands on experience with it. EVP's are also a great starting point. I've heard EVP's recorded at places that had absolutely no paranormal history. You can capture EVP's almost anywhere. And finally, start documenting your experiences. Start a blog, or a diary. If you have some evidence that you are experienced in this field, people may be more comfortable with allowing you to investigate. ABOVE ALL! If you can get a parent to go with you when you ask for permission to investigate, that would be ideal. If you can show the owners of a property that your parents believe in what you're doing and will stand behind you, they will be less reluctant to give you permission. On a final note, I personally wouldn't recommend anyone younger than teenage performing an investigation. At least, not without adult supervision.

Hi Lycanthrope. Thanks for the great suggestions on how teenagers can investigate, even though they are underage. Starting with public property (i.e. city cemeteries) or your own house is ideal.

Hi Michelle. I am thankful for you website. I purchased and downloaded your guide. I love it. I am part of a Paranormal Research Group called EPPS. Easter Pennsylvania Paranormal Society. We were founded in the spring of 2007 and are always interested in hearing everyones theories.

Thank you.

Hi Carla.  Thanks for the kind words.  Glad to hear you enjoyed the Ghost Hunting Guide.  It's not my book, though—it was written by Collier Marshall.  It's a good initial guide to paranormal investigation, and the forms section is especially useful. 

Glad to hear you've joined a paranormal research group. :-)

Hi, I saw you were from Philadelphia.  Is there any information you could relay to me about Fort Mifflin?  I would really appreciate it.  I saw this episode last night on Ghost Hunters and am very curious, because I could have the chance to visit but I want to make sure I have my ducks in a row.

Thanks,

Samantha

Hi Samantha.  I am actually in NC.  Yes, Fort Mifflin is very active.  Casemate 5 has a lot of activity.  It was used as a prison cell for Confederate prisoners-of-war, Union deserters, and others who broke the law.  Billy Howe, a faceless ghost (former Union solider who was convicted of murder and hung) haunts this casemate. 

One of the most commonly-reported incidents is the "Screaming Woman" who can be found in the Officers' Quarters.  The Screaming Woman is thought to be Elizabeth Pratt, (wife of an officer) who hung herself after her estranged daughter died of a typhoid fever.  The daughter had fallen in love with an enlisted man and the daughter died before Elizabeth could reconcile with her.  Other commonly reported ghosts include Jacob the blacksmith, and a non-human tour-guide dressed in a Revolutionary War uniform.

If you visit Ft. Mifflin, let us know what you experience.  Have fun.

I appreciate the tips here and thank you.

Thanks Issi. You're welcome. :-)

Hey. My school had some STRANGE experinces with La Llorna. Advice?

I have started ghost hunting, and I want to know when I use a video camera at night, do I put the nightshot on or do I leave it off?

I have a small group in Vassar Michigan.  We are always looking for a new place to check out……

Hi Teresa.  Welcome, glad to hear you're working with a group!

Hi Tracey.  Yes, I recommend using Nightshot if you are working in a dark environment.  The Nightshot feature is a built-in infrared emitter that lets you take video in total darkness (or VERY low light).  The video produced by Nightshot is monochromatic—typically green and white, not black & white.  Nightshot is very useful in areas of low light or total darkness (up to about 8-10 feet away)—however, it can be a bit grainey.

Hi Jason.  You can find more information about La Llorna here.  Reports of La Llorna are common throughout the Southwest and parts of Latin America.

My family and I are pretty sure that there is some sort of spirit in our house.  We call it Madison.  Strange things do happen like things falling out of the kitchen cabinets or falling off tables onto the floor.  Sometimes we will smell smoke.  These small things haven't ever bothered us, but recently we had a friend come by and he said that something grabbed the back of his head and pulled him back.  He is about 6'2" middle-aged and shaking afterwards.  What would be the best way to test if it's our Madison or something/one else?

Hi Jasmine, you may want to take special care with this case.  I'm not saying you need to be scared, I'm just suggesting not to be confrontational with what you are dealing with.  I've witnessed a number of cases where provocation may have caused undue stress on both the family and the entity. 

You could be dealing with an entity that is NOT comfortable with male figures, or you could be dealing with something that is NOT what it seems to be.  Either way, provocation isn't necessary to get to the bottom of your situation.  I would suggest some serious digging into the history of where you live.  How long has the home existed? What was there before your home?  It may help determine what may be there.  The local library will be VERY helpful with this. 

Next, I would try using EVP work to try and get some answers to your questions.  I know it seems that Michelle and I both suggest EVP work A LOT, but there is a reason for this.  Other forms of contact have had negative effects on the people conducting them, if they are inexperienced.  I don't like to "speculate" on anything that doesn't have evidence to back it up, but it isn't smart to delve into things that aren't explained either.  For this reason, I don't suggest "saence" or "ouija board" work, unless you are VERY FAMILIAR with how they work!!!  EVP work has shown no signs of negative effect on the conductor so, it seems to be VERY SAFE for the person conducting it, and can prove to be very valuable in gaining information into what you are dealing with. 

Don't be scared, but don't be "foolhardy" either.  See what you find out, and perhaps Michelle can help you resolve this after you have more info. 

(I'm just a "Poster" on this forum.  This actually belongs to Michelle, who is VERY knowledgeable in the field and will probably have more suggestions for you!)

Hi Jazmin.  Lycanthrope gave you excellent advice.   Avoid provocation (being confrontational with the spirit), as it can have unintended consequences.  I would only recommend provocation as a "last resort" option—and even then, the results can be unpredictable.  As Lycanthrope mentioned, you should definitely research your home's history, since your answer probably lies there. 

Knowledge of your home's history, combined with EVP work, should give you a solid grasp on who/what you're dealing with.  I would ask specifically who the spirit is (Who are you?) when recording, and "Did you grab the back of Friends_Name's head?"  See what comes through.  This article may also help you: How to Test a House for Paranormal Activity.  Let us know how things go for you.

Being disabled, I am unable to go on ghost hunts.  It is hard finding a group here in the UK that will take me and my scooter on a hunt.  I know several places in the city where I live to be haunted.  However, I manage to capture phenomenon in my home.  The property was built in 1948, but prior to that cottages sat where our flat now stands.  Due to the history of the property and the area, I am able to get plenty of activity.  I just sometimes have to wait for it, as it comes in waves.  Some days, I can't get anything at all, and other days-no problem.  Patience is the key.

Can you tell me on my new digital recorder, is it better to have it going all the time or have it on avr…automatic voice recorder, and what speed to record on slow or fast. and what speed to listen to it…thanks dan

Hey, it's really a fantastic experience for me to find a ghost at my village in India.   At evening time when I was coming from well I was just visiting a white shadow type thing, and perhaps it was the ghost of a lady??!!!

There's probably more than one ghost in your house if more than one thing is happening.

I'm heading up a hunt at a local private club. I'm shooting for July 7th, which is a full moon. The club has an auditorium with a stage and balcony. Should be fun.

Ok I'm pretty freaked out at this point and online looking for some answers or some understanding, not knowing whether to be afraid or not but I AM!! I gained custody of my autistic grandson 6 months ago and he cannot talk due to autism but he has a few select words he can say.  He always runs around the house and says "run run run" like he is playing with an imaginary friend and goes to a corner and puts his hands up to his mouth and whispers some type of language then giggles like a crazy person. Well I also have custody of his 5 yr old sister and we always get a laugh out of this chalking it up to him having an 'imaginary' friend, up until now that is.

I took my grandson out to play this past monday and took various pictures of him running in the yard etc… BUT when I pulled these pictures up on my digital camera to view them it was NOT him, it was a 20 something looking man… in every photo, not just a ghost playing with him, it did not show my grandson at all but this man. The pictures are kind of blurry but very good. You can see a big beautiful looking smile on his face and he is running in the same stance my grandson runs in, I have more pics of my actual grandson in that same run stance, and one of him with his arm and hand extended out, then one of just looking straight at the camera smiling, then the last is a profile pic much blurrier with a bright circular light coming through the shrubbery in my backyard. He is smiling in them, he doesn't have modern clothing on, he has some sort of uniform looking clothing, a short sleeved white shirt with light blue stripe, with a long thin light blue neck tie sort of thing held with a round silver thing that matches the stripes in his shirt.

BUT… it doesn't show his eyes, I have tried to make the photo bigger and again smaller to try to get a clearer image for the eyes but cannot. He looks like he might be blind or had an accident because the eyes look scared somehow, I can see where they belong and but it looks as if the skin is grown over the sockets?! I am so scared does anyone know anyone around the ashland ky 41102 area code area to help with this sort of thing? I can email actual photos from prev pics of my grandson and the pics I am speaking of. It is not someone playing along with him or chasing him because my grandson does not show it is as if this man where one and the same with my grandson. I showed the pictures to my grandson and asked him if the knew this man and he just smiled and walked away. Please someone respond, should I be afraid?

Cindy

Cindy, yes!!!  That is just not normal. I would be completely freaked out like you are.

Hi Cindy — I would be interested in seeing the photos you've described.  Perhaps there's something wrong with your camera, visual display resolution problems, etc.   It's also possible that the 20-something man could be from a past life (one of your grandson's past lives).  Or maybe a spirit is lingering around your grandson.

Fear can be paralyzing, and it's not something you want to focus on.  Being frightened of the photos will not help you, or your grandson.  As long as your grandson seems happy and content, I wouldn't worry about it.  There ARE stranger things. :-)  You could try showing your grandson the photos again, and asking him about it.  And keep taking photos (experiment by using a different camera).  See if the phenomena repeats itself.  Let us know how things go for you.

I'm new to the whole ghost hunting thing and haven't actually been yet. Anyway, the closest haunted spot is only a few km away. But the history is bad and the ghost that is/was (a medium supposeably helped it pass on) supposed to be violent. Also it is an ancient maori burial ground. I'm only a teen and a beginner so any advice???

Most people do not recommend having the AVR on because EVP is usually at such a low frequency that it will either not turn the AVR on and you will miss it, or since EVP are so short that be the time the recorder turns itself on, you will again miss the EVP. I belong to a paranormal group and have been hunting for about 6 years. If you have any thing else I can help with, you can e-mail me from my website listed above.

michelle, my mother lives in Huntsville Tx. and we know there is paranormal activity there. here is the question my neice and nephew have both seen a little girl around the age of three also the neighbors and friends and family. she never is in moms house but she plays in the yard and by the driveway or in the woods with my nephew charlie. Charlie says her name is Bailey and he's not afraid of her and he told mom she doesn't talk much, they just play. my mother's friend came over one day and Bailey was playing in the driveway and when she got out of the car Bailey was gone. There are no little girls in my mom's neighborhood. Before my mom got her new house (same property) they had two older ghost we called Mr. and Mrs. McIntosh.They truely hated my sister she could walk down the hall and pictures would fly off the wall and a mirror in the bathroom hung and nailed to a stud fell off the wall. the wall was fine. My stepfather saw Mrs.McIntosh sitting on my brother's bed. and my mother was actually touched but nobody seemed to be afraid. but since my sister moved out and they have a new home nobody has seen them until last weekend. it's starting again but no falling mirrors, just strange things. I want to find a reputable person, and also how do i find out who Bailey is?

Michelle,
This is interesting reading. My better half (who has the gift) and I (a believer but no gift) bought a large rural home that housed MRDD kids until 2 years ago. Three spirits are here. Two girls (12 & 15) who stayed here in 2004 and passed away in foster homes within a year and an "old man." One girl (Magan) speaks through Lindsay who is always asking my lady to read the bible with her. She is playful (moving silverware etc.) Lindsay says that the girls are here to protect the children and the old man is there to protect the girls. The girls wanted to know last night when our 2 year old Grandaughter was returning. Toni, my best friend and better half likes having them there since she feels that they are "watching her back" when I am traveling on my NASA job. Since I do not "have the gift" any thoughts on how I can communicate with these folks?

Thanks
Dr Gayland Fisher PE

Hi Gayland.  It sounds like you have intelligent spirits in your home. Glad to hear that Toni feels comfortable around them. You can speak to intelligent spirits, just like you can with any regular person. You will probably be unable to hear their responses—however, it sounds like Toni could help you with that. I'd also suggest capturing EVP, which can help you learn more about the spirits.

Michelle

I love ghosts and investigating but I cant do it because I'm DEAF so I cant hear any noise or captured!  How can I do work out by watch!! I need your help???

Thanks for the response. The kids and grandbaby are here this weekend. The "scruffy old man" sat cross legged right in the middle of the night volleyball game. He says to Toni (thru Lindsay, the elder girl) that he was 80 in 1961 when he passed over. Many of the farms in the area were started as land grants after the civil war which jives with the technique used on the original hidden foundation of the farmhouse. Now that there is a man figure (me) in the house to protect the kids, could he move on to where he is needed? Lindsay (15 YOA in 2005 when she passed) tells Toni about "soldiers marching". This property is along the trail where William Henry Harrison's regiment marched during the war of 1812. Any evidence of intelligent spirits remembering past lives? Lastly, is the sixth sense hereditary? What is the connection, if any, with Indians? (Toni is part Cherokee).
Thanks, Gayland

So glad i found this site, as i am i the process of getting things together for a group here in north east georgia, hopefully up and running by december of this year. Thanks so much.

Ok well, i live in greensboro nc and me and my friends have been trying for months now to be creeped out or scared by something of the paranormal. but, here's the thing…we've tried every single lead more than once to make this happen and we always walk away disappointed.  for example i stayed at the devil's playground near prospect hill nc over night, nothing happened. ive been in the old abandoned prison over night (drunk mind you), still nothing happened. and all four of us went to the mill where some worker there back in the day caged up kids in the basement and two witches killed themselves ritualistically, and yet another let down. now i dont believe in any of it, ghosts demons none of it…but the other three of my friends i go with really do. so ok can someone, anyone tell me or give some kind of info on a place in nc near gboro wehere i can become a believer….specially if it's somewhere no one will go near or go check out, bc i don't get scared and i'm adamantly trying to change that. thank you so much. PS: this is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.

today is the day i am fed up with it.. i seen a young women when i was 10years old,she must have been in her early 20s and had a face i could never forget she looked at me as if i did something terribly wrong to her, i was frightened as most would be. at the age of 16 i was at a friends house and i woke up and as i was focusing my eyes i saw her again over me staring at me as if i had committed a crime to her. once in a while i will wake up and feel her presance she just likes to control me she makes it to where i cant scream, yell for help, or get away. This morning i woke up around 615am thinking it was my grandmother telling me bye i opened my eyes and say movement next to my arm as i tried to pull my arm away my bodie did it again it froze.. i dont know what she wants i would like to help her in every way possible but she only comes when she wants to and i am tired of being scared of something that can only scare me..so what is there for me to do i have that questioned in my head all the time scared to go to bed at night, scared to close my eyes thinking if i open them is she going to appear again..

I been working with spirit a long time i would really like to discuss this with you and see if i can help. please feel free to email me. My user name on my site is Zodiac-Angel.

Hello michelle. I would like to know if there is a way ectoplasm has anything to do with drawing spirts to people who have it in their system, and does cheesecloth draw them too? And i heard egg whites do too. I've been investigating for four years now, and i learned a lot from the otherside. I'm hearing different sounds on my voice recorder that sounds like the other side opens sound box, and we get get class A evps.

I have been intereted in the paranormal since I was a kid. I just started doing Ghost Tours and Hunts at the Trans Alleghany Lunatic Asylum in WV. I have witnessed tons of activity and am very excited about my new job. I am worried about protecting myself against any negative spirits. People have been touched, shoved and hair is pulled all of the time. What would anyone recomend, for me to stay safe?

An excellent place to find haunted locations on the internet is "The Shadowlands."  They maintain a directory of haunted places (public).  Does not include private homes.

Hi,
What about using DOGS, yes dogs for investigating the paranormal? They sense when thunderstorms and earthquakes are looming even though we humans are clueless. Why wouldn't they be good for detecting ghosts(EMF readers with four legs?!) Does anybody out there know of dogs being used in ghost hunting? I know it may seem a bit silly to some, but as a dog owner/lover I know them all too well and think it's not such a bad idea. Just waiting on a response, thanks.
Bryan

I love the TV series Ghost Hunters, you should try it.  Ghost Hunting is scary and me and my friends think my house is haunted! It's scary, but somehow fun. :)

Hello Michelle,

I wanted to take this time to introduce myself. My name is Anthony and I am a college student at Argosy University acquiring my degree in Psychology and later on Paranormal Psychology. My interest is in Paranormal Activity and how I can become a Ghost Hunter myself. The quest for interpersonal effectiveness among the dead and how it relates to personal mindness in an paranormal atmospheric conditions. As a child, I have always felt their were things I have observed, but could not see or explain which made me curious. Studing these acts of paranormal activity has opened my mind to other aspects concerning my own interest.

My interest is to find and study these ghost learning more of their troubled souls and bring closure for the living. I always felt that there is some unfinished business that might make a ghost wanting to stay in this dimension. I have studied all forms of the Bible and some course of Demonology for a better understand of how the human mind obtains the observation of beliefs. I have an open mind to all things whether believable or not. The study of the Paranormal and ghostly activity has made me wonder what if there is something out there.

Our group has investigated 2 abandoned buildings so far. One is in Lyons New York. The other one is in Newark New York. We have proved both locations are in fact haunted. We had great results with evp recordings. We have investigated a peppermint factory that burned, and killed many people in the 1800s, and an insane asylum where serial killers were held. We were wondering, when we were in the insane asylum we had the whole area closed off, and nobody was in the building, we had police check it for us. Repeated times we had small rocks thrown at us, not very hard, but they were thrown at our legs from across the room. Is this a poltergeist or what???

By the way I would like Michelle to respond to what has happened, and we have investigated the Insane Asylum further. We have found that the rocks are only thrown at us when we are in certain holding cells. These particular holding cells are in Solitary Confinement where an infamous serial killer known as "Jack The Ripper" a cannibal killer of the early 1800s. We were wondering if this isn't a poltergeist then is it the angry spirit of this individual?

I grew up in a house that was haunted. So I was always curious about the paranormal. Last November, my brother & I went on an over-night ghost hunt. It was our first investigation. We went to Mansfield Reformatory, in Mansfield, Ohio. To make a long story short, we came back with pictures & e.v.p.'s! My hair was touched. My brother & I felt an entity walk through us. I am soooooo glad we said a protection prayer.

Our second ghost-hunt is in June! We are going to Moundsville Penitentiary in Moundsville, West Virginia. What can I say? I am addicted!!

awesome tasha. good luck on ya quest.

Ghost Redeemers Group — It could be an angry intelligent spirit, or poltergeist activity. Poltergeist activity tends to occur around a single person called an agent. Almost seventy years of research by the Rhine Research Center (in Durham, NC) has led to the conclusion among parapsychologists that the "poltergeist effect" is a form of psychokinesis generated by a living human mind (that of the agent). According to researchers at the Rhine Center, the "poltergeist effect" is the outward manifestation of emotional trauma (stress, unhappiness, emotional distress) that is seeking an outlet. I would suggest EVP to learn more.

Tasha — Congrats, glad to hear you experienced activity at Moundsville.

I'm so scared. I was home alone (with my friend) and I went into my friend's mom's room and I looked behind me and my friend.  We saw a shadow walk behind us.  I don't know what to do.  Now my friend comes over any time he can. :o

Hi my name is Jeff. I live in Ashland OH and I will be starting my first meetup session with meetup.com within the month, and am hoping to get things rolling in the area with meetings and hopefully interveiwing potental members for my group. Anyone interested in attending please feel free to contact me at wildman6363@yahoo.com. thank you!

i dont think u should be afraid because its somebody that your grandson can play and talk with. not only that but if your grandson hasn't been hurt by this spirit then leave him be. that is my opinion so you can think about it and would you mind sending me the photos?

Michelle,
Me and my dad have always been into paranormal activity. (if youre ever in texas, you have to check out the Ott Hotel in Liberty!). 2 years ago we moved into a new house, and we are 99.9 percent positive the house is haunted. We have the typical stuff. lights flickering. tvs turning on and off. stuff like that. then some more noticable stuff like shoes come tumbling down the stairs when everyones in the living room downstairs or things will get knocked over. once mom even woke up and saw someone standing at the side of their bed. we finally took pics of our house at night and got several orbs which kinda just confirmed what we already knew. My question for you is, any ideas on why my house would be haunted? i live in a fairly new house, its only been around for about 10 years, and we knew the family who owned it before, but they never mentioned seeing these things. what do you think?

I was wondering if there is any place in the Macomb, Michigan area that is haunted? I am also looking for a paranormal group that will just let me/maybe friends go with them. Or if anyone knows of any place that you know of in Michigan that allows you to ghost hunt. Thanks to all who reply.

hi, live in dayton txs. my dad died here in 08 in the room my brother sleeps in now. we r not scared we know its most likely him. my mom has has experiences she felt someone sit on her bed but when she sat up and shined a flashlight no one was there. my cousin has my dads truck now and sometimes when its raining, the winshield wipers start by there selves. he hated driving in the rain and sometimes they wont come on and we know they work.

ive heard a hotel in liberty 5 miles from here is haunted. havent been there yet though

I have experienced the covers being pulled off me at night and neatly folded at the end of my bed. my room is were my moms grandmother died. is she pulling down the covers?

also after i watched exorcism of emily rose my smoke detector went off at exactly 3 am for no reason at all. All time seemed to stop while my mom broke it to shut it up. what happened there?

hey im wondering does anyone know of any haunted places in NYC? anything out in Putnam County and Cold Springwould be appreciated too:) thanks

Hola a todos, yo vivo en Mexico y estoy por formar un grupo de cazafantasmas, alguno de ustedes me podria ayudar a ponerle nombre, mil gracias amigos y mucha suerte

hi michelle, i am interested in hunting ghosts in any place, but i'm afraid. i want to know that there is no harm in this??

Hi Michelle, and all others ;) We are a Team of Paranormal Investigators from the U.K. The site is fantastic and should be shared. You are giving out some fantastic advise, this girl knows her stuff lol.. have fun out there guys and stay safe xx love from all at S.I.G.N.S UK ;)

Found the house in Antioch, that I thought was in Salem Wi. That my mother and I stayed at soooo many years ago.Got a birds eyeview of the old waterfront property on N. Shore Rd. That was my first experience of the paranormal and something my mom won't forget as we spoke about that house for a couple days now, the owners that had that house sometime way before then were a man and wife. The man murdered his wife(not sure on the year although was before I was born), then hung himself somewhere by the stairs, the bodies werent found until later. Now from what my mother told me, the ghosts liked her exboyfriend Chris's mom. She used to board some of the rooms, although the people that boarded rooms would not stay there if she wasnt there.

Divers air tanks used to turn on and off by themselves. My grandfather used to own a sporting goods store so my mom knew how the regulators on the equipment worked and they didnt have faulty regulators so she kept having to turn the air tanks off. She seen full body apparitions of a man and a waman in the house. Also there was a time when I was playing a game that wasnt even plugged in, although was working as it would normally had it been. Whenever a person walked into the home the first thing they would do is look at the stairs. they watched the stairs all the time. The last night we spent in that house in Antioch, my mos exboyfriends mom was on her honeymoon, all the boarders had left, so there was me, my mom and Chris and a couple of their friends playing Christain music,loud until we went to sleep that night in his moms room…my mom wouldnt leave me alone in that house…not even in a different room, mind you. She woke, from what she told me and the apparitions of the man and the woman were there, she couldnt wake me or her boyfriend, by the time the ghost disappeared Chris leggs were black and blue from my mom trying to wake him up and he didnt wake up until they were gone.

Then they got me and got in the car and went to our house. Sometime that morning Pam…my mom and her exboyfriend Chris had went to his church and he asked the preist to bless the house. So the preist followed us back to the house. As they watched through the window the priest blessed the kitchen look into the living room area towards the stairs. He wasnt in the house for more than a couple minutes when the preist ran out the door got in his car and gravel flew as he left. When My mom and Chris reentered the house all the doors on the cabinet doors were thrown open, all the dresser drawers were thrown open and all the closet doors were thrown open.

I beleive that was the last time we ever went there. Although for many years I have wanted to visit the property to see if its still haunted. Its a different color, now and theres a garage that wasnt there so many years ago and there werent any piers then either, or any of the other houses.

I was wondering if any paranormal things could follow you home. I have seen a show on discovery channel "A Haunting" that there was a lady doing an investigation with her son, and all of a sudden alot of paranormal activity was happening to her son. It probably sounds a lil dumb, but just curious.

Hi Michelle. Im a 52yo old Aboriginal Australian & over the years have had quite a few encounters with ghosts. Many of my race are very aware of spirits. My encounters have ranged from shadows (outlines), noises of walking at night & sounds of children playing, to being physically attacked with the spirit actually getting in bed with me! Ive also experienced nausea when ghosts are about.. I believe that ghosts exist!! Terrence

Hello Michelle. My aunt told me that around 2am this morning she saw a ghost of a man sitting on our sofa inside the living room and looking straight at our front door. The same story was told by my sister way back, years ago. My sister woke up one night to have a glass of water when she saw a man standing inside our living room facing the front door. My question is how can i find out who he was, and why is he always looking at the front door? We own the house and no one died here. I am 32 years old from Philippines.

we want to go hunting, but not really sure were to go? wanted to know if someone could tell us? from up state ny

We love hunting ghosts, we are two sisters and my best friend. Love it!

Hi…I think that my house is haunted because i always feel like someone is watching me all the time. there is definitely something there…I mean the energy changes like everyday. i always feel tingly cold to the bone sensations. i recently had this dream where i watched myself die, and i felt something "walk into me"???… it was warm and it filled my whole body and my bones felt hot… it was like that contrast at the hospital they inject into you body. Sometimes at night i smell a sweet perfume and i dont wear it to bed.

I have lived in my house for about 4 years now. And the people who lived here before me didn't die. and no i havent done anything to unlock any doors…. Please michelle help!!! Im terrified of my house and its not that old.

Hello my name is Lizette. My best friend is Jay and he truly feels a bad or angry spirit in his apartment. for the last 3 weeks, he has been in bed depressed and his cat all of a sudden is afraid of him and wont sleep on the bed with him. tonite for Thanksgiving is the first time he's been out. I gave him some sage to cleanse himself as well as his apartment. Any suggestions or anyone to call here in Oakland Ca.? PLEASE HELP. Thanks so much. L.V

As paranormal investigators, we are all looking into new places to investigate. We're also looking into updating to new equipment… Any thoughts or ideas about Full Spectrum Video Cameras? Any recommendations? Thanks Rich. NJGO

michelle, i have an investigation like no other i have had before tonight. it is either poltergiest or demon. what should i do to protect me and my crew?

Some ghosts are interesting or exciting, but some are not for under experienced ghost hunters. Contrary to popular belief, ghosts can be extremely dangerous, like those researched in Travel Creepster. Its very important that you know what kind of paranormal entity you're getting yourself involved with before you walk through the door!

I live up in SILVERTON, COLORADO – Old West town with lots of history. The whole town is haunted. I have had so many experiences here. I am a finder, I go right to things without knowing any thing about the area. This will help me to put it all together. You can also drive out in the country to find the old homestead homes, or any old place that as a lot of history. Good times, I have had amazing things caught on tape recorder and photos. seem to catch best pictures around 3:30 am to 5:00 am. Thanks from SILVERTON, COLORADO.

Hi Michelle. I am an armed response officer. Yesterday I was sent to a location where the alarm was tripped. When I arrived at the place, everything was okay. But as soon as I entered the building, I felt a very cold feeling up my spine – but I was okay. As I climbed the stairs and reached floor number 6, my hair was standing straight up. That's when I realized somebody was watching me, and I could hear someone walk behind me. When I reached floor number 8, everything was back to normal.

Hi i'm James and i live 30 miles from Gettysburg. we go there alot and we have seen and video taped alot of stuff. we have seen soldiers marching, and even saw one on his horse. we go at night about midnight till 4am. we even look in old buildings where the gift shops are and have seen old time people walking around.

One building used to be a hospital back in civil war days. that's where John Reynolds was taken when he was shot. we put are video camera up at the window and captured a woman in a dress standing by the feet of a dead soldier who we believe was John. then there was a man walking back and forth by the window. this was 3am when we saw it we never saw it. so michelle gettysburg is a great place to view ghosts, they are there.
