Fakes Psychics! Just For Fun!

Today has been a slow day on the paranormal front. So, as you all know. I like the Housewives of New York City. Don't worry I'm not going to write about the show per se. It's just that these women (very rich women) do have psychics on house-call to them. No kidding! And, they wont make a move until they are given the go ahead. Unbelievable!
So, I'll pass this funny article along to you:

GL TV Review: Ghost Hunters

I haven't done a review of GH in awhile. And, there's a major reason why? It hasn't changed. And, not for the better. So, not to rehash things. Let's get to the main problem.
In last nights show they were at a private residence. Small too. They have enough equipment on them to take on huge ships. So, why not cover the entire place from top to bottom. But, they don't. So many things are questionable. We saw a child's room with a toy carriage. Notice, we don't see the wheels. But, as evidence they show it moving. How do we know if "someone" is there off camera moving the darn thing. We hear footsteps. Upstairs and down. Where's the camera's? It's the same old, same old. And, you know what? It really doesn't seem to bother them. Which bothers me? I can't believe Syfy is continuing with their franchises series. There has to be some change "next" year. Because I'll let you all know. I'm not going to watch this show anymore. Period! It's a waste of my life. And, it's a shame. I love the paranormal.

Happy "1st" Anniversary, Ghost Lounge!

Well, I made it, so far. I can't believe a year went by that fast. So, here I would like to review some things.
First of all I would like to thank my followers. If it weren't for you guys. I would find it hard to continue writing. So, thanks again.
Second, the reason I started writing in the first place? I'm really a forum writer. And, the problems that I found then are the same today. So, I'm thankful for it forcing me to create my blog.
Last, the future. I would really like to have more time to really make my blog, pop! I need help in that department. But, I still have not gotten a "outside" group started. That's still my goal. The other is to do a journal of day trips to haunted locations. I wanted to do that last year. But, life got in the way. So, let's see this year will be different. I hope?
So, Happy 1st GL!

Do You Always Believe What You See?

This footage is suppose to be one of the best out there. Do you think it is?


Here's another.


And, this one is from a Most Haunted Live that I saw.


Interesting huh?

Haunted Summer Vacations Continue: Double Eagle Restaurant, Mesilla, NM

Now that we are nearing Cinco De Mayo. I thought it would be fun to find a haunted location in New Mexico.
The Double Eagle Restaurant was built during the 1840's after the Mexican American War.
The adobe building was a private home until the 1950's. During the years it has had many different businesses.
As the story goes there was a family call Maes or Maese. The Senora, Carlotta had plans for her very wealthy family. Mostly her eldest son, Armando. She wanted him to marry "up". She promised his hand to an aristocratic family in Mexico City. But, her son fell in love with a beautiful servant called Inez. They tried very hard to keep their love a secret. One day, the Senora came home early then expected. She found them in Love's Embrace. She went to her sewing basket to retrieve a pair of sewing shears. Nobody can really say what the "true" story is. There are so many versions. Either she stab one or both?
The hauntings consist of full bodied apparitions. The smell of lavender. Moving furniture, breaking glass, and whispering.

GL Popcorn Movie Review: The Skeptic

I really was looking forward to watch this movie (on cable). Great scenery, not a bad story. It did have the right feel, spooky. But, then as your watching (without giving anything away) it just fell flat. The writer had the basic idea right. It just went off course. Way, way off. And, it's a shame.
The condense story, it's about an attorney who thinks he inherited a huge mansion from his aunt. Good so far. But, then he finds out it's willed to a sleep study group. So, he sleeps at the mansion till it's finalized. That's where it goes, downhill. Bottom line, the main twist? The film goes from being a scary haunted story to a psychological thriller. The problem is, guess? The writer! He tried too hard for a fancy story and it failed. Sorry, to be so hard. So, see it. But, for free.

GL Book Review: "Brandywine Valley Ghosts" By Laurie Hull

There was a Borders Express closing down at the mall I was at. So, of course would rush in and grab as many good "ghost", "haunting", books as I can get. The first one I'm still in the process of reading. The whole title is "Brandywine Valley Ghosts, Haunts of Southeastern Pennsylvania" by Laurie Hull. She is the founder and director of Delaware County Paranormal Research.
It's a very cute little soft covered book. Full of pictures. And, it has one of my favorite things. It has some stories you normally wouldn't know about. Or, hear about. Real mysteries! Love it! The Brandywine region is steep in historical history of the American Revolution. So, this is a great gift for a history buff. It also where the great artist Andrew Wyeth comes from.
So, when I'm finished I will "finish" my book review. To be continued...
