Ouija Boards- Just say no! Tonight on SYFY 10-5-2011

Ok  Just want to share this story really quick.  The SyFy Channel did a program on Ouija Board where a lady was just playing with it to see if she was going to have a baby or not.  Don't play with these boards folks.  Bad Bad things can happen if you don't know what you are doing.  You need to call it up on the computer under Paranornal Whitness-Virgina-2008-Ouija Board. And watch it.
You might want to watch this first before letting your kids watch it.  But keep it in mind that around Halloween Ouoija Boards seem to find there way out for playtime at Halloween,  Just  watch it if you can.

I talk a little bit under my FUN STUFF on the right side blog about this, but there is a warning.

You decide!

Misc pics

These are just misc. pics I thought were cool

A pic of a really cool old tree in the rain(Houston Cemetar).  Just made for a really CREEPY pic.  I love it!!

The founder of the Pfister Hotel in, Milwaukee,was Charles Pfister. Charles Pfister has been spotted surveying the lobby from a vantage point on the grand staircase. He is said to visit the hotel to make sure that guests are well taken care of and that the hotel is running well. This mysterious visitor has also been seen strolling through the minstrel's gallery above the ballroom and passing through the storage area on the ninth floor.

The visitor is described in the same terms by the people who see him: "older, portly, smiling and well dressed". Witnesses who claim to have seen the visitor and a portrait of Charles Pfister, say that the visitor is Charles Pfister.

If these reports are true, the spirit is a welcome guest at the grand hotel.

This hotel is awsome!  See the orb?



Another cool pic of an orb



Mr. Pfister keeping a watchful eye...




Sleeping beauty

ssshhh...I just took this photo this month at the MOST HAUNTED HOTEL IN TEXAS....THE DRISKILL.  My friend and I went to Austin just for a quick girls weekend.  She does not believe in ghost but knows that it's really my passion so she agreed to stay at the Driskill. 

This hotel is beyound beautiful!!!! Anyway back to my story...I was going to wonder the hotel one night and she was to scared to go. So I said.."ok stay here with the ghost by yourself".  I went and did my thing and returned to the room around 12:30am.  The hotel was built back in the 1800's so I figured maybe their were "souls" that maybe loved this hotel and this room enough to "visit" it again.  So before I even walked in the room I snapped a few pics of our room while my friend slept.  And look what I got!  Orbs over my friends bed.  I could not hardly wait for the morning after I downloaded my pictures and saw the orbs.  I knew she would freak out if I woke her in the night to show her the pictures.  She would have made us pack our bags and leave. lolol

Needless to say, the next morning she FREAKED OUT.  I also told her that I am sure it didn't mean anything but the last part of the word DRISKILL is KILL!!!!!

If you get the chance, check out the Driskill is Austin.  It is a little expensive, but the staff and service is soooo worth it!  Not to mention it is full of stories of hauntings.....

Jefferson Davis Hospital in Houston, TX

Hi everyone.  I know its been a while since I posted last, but I have just been very busy.  I didn't forget you. :)

Above are pictures of the Jefferson Davis Hospital in Houston, Tx  that were taken a couple of years ago.  This landmark was built in 1924 and often referred to as one of the most haunted buildings in America, was built atop a burial ground for confederate soldiers, slaves and city leaders.  The Jefferson Davis  Hospital sits creepily along the Buffalo Bayou near White Oak Dr.  The building was recently renovated and transformed into the Elder Street Artist Lofts.  The hospital is said to have spirits such as nurses, doctors, and patients that still roam its halls.  Many have gone into this place and have had their own personal experiences such as being watched , seeing shadows, and smelling sterilization solutions in certain areas.

This hospital was built upon a site of about 3,000 graves of civil war and yellow fever victims, from when it was a cemetery in the 1800's.  During some excavation work done in the area, approximately 60 "black earth graves" were uncovered.  The common characteristics of these graves were the orientation of graves East to West(the head), and body was wrapped in a shroud and buried without a coffin.  Because the graves were filled with fresh soil of high organic nature they are called "black earth graves".

I went to the Jefferson Davis Hospital a couple of years ago, and I have to tell you...IT IS CREEPY!!!!! A friend of mine took me there, during the day, but HE was to afraid to get out of the car and come in with me.  So, I put on my "big girl shoes" and went in alone.  The smell, oh man... the smell of sterilization solution was overwhelming!!!!!  To the point I thought I was going to be physically sick.  That really bothered me, because how could that smell be that STRONG back from the 1800's????  It wasn't in just a couple of places, it smelled that way the whole time I was there.

There are people living here so you have to be respectful of that.  The are signs that say "Residents Only" but.....lets just say....I must not have seen that sign until I had left. lol ssshhhhh   I just snapped a few pictures in the entry way and it was deadly quite.  I walked up and down the hallway taking pictures, which I will post later, but you could absolutely feel what it was like a long time ago when it was a hospital...the sadness...the concern, much like you would feel in a hospital today.  The residents have the doors decorated in their own styles, but that doesn't matter at all.  You still feel sadness.  I decided to be really brave and go up stairs.  The were very narrow and creepy.  I have to say that after all my years of going to "haunted places and graveyards" this place really made me uncomfortable. I walked all the way to the top floor on the stairs taking pictures.  I didn't stay long, even though it was in the day, I just wanted to get out of there.

I am posting this post about the Jefferson because I am going back to Houston next week and will be revisiting this place.  Hopefully, this time at night.  I was hoping that maybe someone could tell me what you know about this hospital or have been there and had personal experiences.  I would love to know more about this place.

That's it for now, you guys take care.

What a night!!! What do you think

So, let me tell you about the next series of pics you are going to see.  They were taken just last night(or should I say, early this morning around 12:15am).  I was working on the blog and trying to think of someplace for me to go investigate.  I decided to go outside for just a bit, because it was such a great night.  No wind, very cool and at this late hour, no one was out but me(so I thought)Wel....l I live only 2 mins from the lake, surely a long time ago, things went on in this area before it was developed, so I thought what the heck, grab the camera and go sit outside for a while.

What a night it turned out to be for pics!!!!  I went outside and just sat down in the driveway thinking how awesome it was, it was so claim and no one stirring.  Just silence and a beauitful moon.  So I took out my camera and snapped a pic to my left. Well instantly, I could see a very bright orb. I got excitied because it was kinda cool just thinking "someone else" might be out here with me.  So I just said out loud, " So I see I'm not the only one enjoying this nice cool evening", and snapped another pic.  And I couldn't believe my eyes!!!!! There were tons of Orbs!!!  There was no way it was the wind stirring up dust, it just wasn't blowing.  So, I quickly snapped a pic to my right to see if it was dust, because dust would have been everywhere if the wind was blowing.  It would not have been in just one place!  And what do you think that pic showed? NOTHING! Not anything.
So now I'm really excitied, and I turn back to my right and snap another pic and there was NOTHING!!! Everything I had just seen and caught on my camera was GONE!  I was crushed.  I guess my
"new friends" thought it was time to go in, and thats just what I did.  I couldn't wait to upload my pics and check them out.

This all took about three minutes according to the time stamps.  So, you tell me....how do you get these kinds of pics.....things on the left, but not on the right in a big wide open space. And one minute you see something and the next you don't. I don't know, I think they are awesome pics. And to have been there, in that moment makes it wayyyyyy cooooll.  lol   Hope you guys enjoy them.

This is to my left.  The very first picture I took and could see the Orb in it.



After I saw that I had an Orb on the first pic I just simply said outloud, " so I guess I'm not the only one out tonight enjoying this nice, cool evening....".  And look what happened!!!!  I think there were several "friends" that were glad I was outside. :)



I took this picture to the right of me to show that if the wind had been blowing dust around it would have been everywhere not in just one spot.



This is after "EVERYONE" went home.  As quickly as they came, they were gone. Again all this happened in about three minutes according to the time stamp of the pictures.



Halloween 2010

Hi everyone.  Sorry it's been a long time since I have posted.  I have had trouble with my computer and couldn't get any pictures to load.  Anyway, hope all is well and everyone has been having great ghost experiences.

The picture above was taken last year around midnight on Halloween.  I guess even orbs go "door to door" on Halloween. :) It's getting close to Halloween so I thought I would post this just for fun.

San Antonio, Tx Sept.2011



So, hello again.  It seems like forever since I have posted.  Sorry.  The above picture is just last weekend in San Antonio, Tx with my boss.  I had hoped to get a lot of good pics because it is the 175 year of the Battle at the Alamo.  But sadly, we did not.  We walked all around the Alamo, the Menger Hotel and the Emily Morgan Hotel and only caught a couple of orbs.  The above picture is of my boss, Mike in the courtyard of the Menger Hotel.  It is a really good picture of him and an orb but nothing else.  Was a disappointing trip as far as ghost hunting was concerned.  Oh well, maybe next time. 

 That is just the life of a ghost hunter...sometimes you win and lose. lol  And sometimes you walk around looking for ghost in 100 degree weather in the night, and your feet hurt and theres not a cab to be found...just saying...:)
