Halloween 2024 at Spirit Halloween, Lowe's, Home Depot, Joann's, and Michael's Stores
Michael's Store
I had a good time with my bestie, checking out what Halloween items are up at the stores. I thought I'd share. I found a few very refreshing things at Michael's, surprises at Spirit Halloween, and utter shock at Lowe's and Home Depot!
Getting Into the Autumn Mood
It's crazy how in the winter, we daydream about beaches and swimming pools, but the minute summer drones on, our minds are on chilly noses, sweaters, bonfires, spiced cider, and the coming holiday of spookiness - Halloween.
Let's go!
Michigan Aboriginal Project
One thing I love about doing research on all subjects of paranormal geekdom is finding researchers who are doing good work in the background and bringing them to light. Michigan Aboriginal Project is one such warehouse of Bigfoot information.
What's Up With GHT's Researcher/Author?
The last couple of years, I've buzzed along in the background working on my career in screenwriting/film production/acting. I haven't shared it because projects are under non-disclosure agreements. I am ready, however, to reveal where my career is headed.

Discovery Channel @ 10 pm EST/9 pm CST/7 pm PST
The team returns to Northern California, Ground Zero for Bigfoot.
It's time to go in the woods again and join the team!

The Why Files also has a fun shop with crazy fun things!
Whenever I come across sources of intrigue and interest, I will always share. I highly recommend this channel. It's mesmerizing and makes your mind stand at alert.
Amazon also has The Why Files seasons for free with ads on Freevee/Amazon Prime.

I know, I know, summer has over a month left, but y'all know that Halloween lovers are only surviving the humidity and sunshine to get to the part where colorful leaves form and fall, chimney smoke punctuates the air, and horror movies are repeatedly playing.
If you dream it, it will come!
