A harbinger spirit is a spirit that foretells the coming of a future event. I think we’ve chatted about the Gray Man who foretells the coming of hurricanes by walking along the end of a pier. Well, the harbinger of the week, and the one we least want to see, is the Demon Cat of…

Well, the reviews aren’t haunted – but they are about experiences that guests have in hotels. Let me explain – every so often, I love to get onto the Trip Advisor site and do a search on reviews with the word “haunted.”  This time I ended up choosing two hotels, one in Chicago and the…

A couple of weeks ago I was watching one of the new episodes of Kindred Spirits, a paranormal television show I really enjoy.  This episode was called “Watch Over Me” and if you click on the link, you can find more about it. But basically (no spoilers) there is an old shoe in the old…

Several weeks ago, I wrote a Freaky Friday about attics. I mentioned that the reason I was moving my office upstairs to our refinished attic was that my daughter, son-in-law, and three delightful grandsons were moving in with us for a while.

These next stories were taken from Reddit and are true stories. I hope you enjoy…

Everybody loves a good Christmas party, right?  (Okay, those of us who are introverts might not “love” them, but we can put up with them during this time of year.)  From Mr. Fezziwig’s Christmas Party in Charles Dicken’s “A Christmas Carol” to the party at the Bailey’s home to show George that indeed he had…
