Devil's Playgrounds: Locations With Bad Reputations

Devil's Tramping Ground, Bear Creek, NC

Like hitchhiking ghosts and crybaby bridges, devil's playgrounds are found in many locations. These are generally sites where something bad happened and bad luck continues there. Let's see about some of these infamous locations of dark urban legend - 

Joe Ghost: Do We Psychically Tag Places?

We are reviewing some interesting evidence accrued during our team, Arizona Paranormal Research, did an investigation in the house I'm living in. The prior resident had died and he had an unusual background of interest and teachings in healing, spirituality, and also believed himself to be an alien abductee. Since moving into the home, we've had lots of signs that Joe is still among us, so my team set out to do an investigation and I started it off with a seance.

Mind Matters: Phobias

There are plenty of things to be afraid of in the world and for most paranormal geeks they include a face-to-face with Bigfoot, a pesky ghost in our home, or perhaps being abducted by aliens. But, it's comforting to know that 10% of the population suffers from phobias and they are also very treatable and curable with cognitive-behavioral therapy! 

Habituation Situation: They Recreated a Researcher Formation!

Every Monday on Ghost Hunting Theories I continue to archive what I consider to be one of the most significant habituation situations documented by researchers. As the series continues along, field notes, photos, audio and video will be revealed on a massive scale.

As the researchers worked to understand the entities they were dealing with, around every corner they found more and more startling evidence and interactions that changed their viewpoint on everything they thought they knew about mankind.

Bats!!!

Hammerhead bat (Africa)

Bats are mammals. They are of a grouping called Chiroptera (hand/wing). Can you believe bats make up about 20% of all mammals? Bats are good for eating insects and for pollinating plants. Even though they are beneficial, they still freak people out, worrying they'll fly into their hair. The smallest bat is about an inch, the largest is about 4 feet.

Cave Giants

Ancient flying machines, alien beings, and giants. These are some of the things reported in the media by supposed American soldiers in the Afghanistan campaign. These stories tell of finds that are extraordinary and chilling.

1980s Actors Who Died Too Young

The 80s were a fantastic era for movies and TV and many of us think back on it fondly as a time of great economic and creative growth. The youth, many referred to as the Brat Pack, were part of the elite celebs of the time, but sadly there was also a curse on those who came into age in the 80s - early deaths by tragic means.

Let's look at some of the loses -

Living in Caves!

In the earliest days of mankind, caves were a necessary protection and available no matter where man was trekking across the continents, but eventually man sat still to practice agriculture and built homes from the local resources. The missing element from living in caves is the temperate climate within. Some smart builders have decided to retreat back into the protection of the cave to create homes that are missing nothing in charm or comforts from traditional homes. Let's have a look at some beauties - 

Paranormal Pride Event May 31st-June 2nd.

Paranormal Pride focuses on the Spirits of Asbury Park

Kathy Kelly of The Paranormal Museum and Adam Berry of Travel Channel’s Kindred Spirits host the inaugural Paranormal Pride event from Friday May 31 to Sunday June 2 in Asbury Park. Events include investigations at Asbury Park’s most famous haunted locations, cocktail parties, lectures, tours, a gallery reading by world famous Psychic Medium Chip Coffey and much more.

It was that last part that encouraged Kathy Kelly to open Paranormal Books & Curiosities in Asbury Park 11 years ago and add The Paranormal Museum a year later. This year, she is teaming up with 2 of TV”s hottest Paranormal names to create a completely unique event, “ It can be a little scary to admit a fascination with the supernatural. People in the LGBTQ community are used to feeling a little separated. We wanted to create an event that celebrated both communities and encouraged exploration of the paranormal AND Asbury Park. It would be impossible to find 2 better advocates for both the LGBTQ community and the paranormal community than Adam Berry and Chip Coffey. I am so excited to offer this event!”

The event will feature some of Asbury Park’s most famous and infamous local haunts, including the Berkley Oceanfront Hotel and The Paramount Theatre. Long held to be haunted (check those old trip advisors!) by the visitors and rock bands that stayed there over the years, the Berkley has never been officially investigated.

“This place is amazing and the event will do it justice, “ said Adam Berry. “It’s extra special to be doing this during pride, with my friends and my husband Ben.” Ben Berry is an experienced investigator himself, having founded Provincetown Paranormal Research Society in Massachusetts.

Paranormal Pride is a celebration and an opportunity for people to do what they love with who they love. “it isn’t political or even social statement. It is just an opportunity for people to be weird together in a completely safe, fun and open situation. “ said Kelly. “this is our inaugural event. Asbury Park is Paranormal and Asbury Park is Pride, we are thrilled to be doing this here.”

Tickets are on $250 for all weekend events with the Chip Coffey gallery a $60 additional upgraded ticket (you must be have a paranormal pride ticket to attend) and area available on www.paranormalpride.com
