How high could gas go?

Everyone is speculating about gas prices. How high (or low) do you think they'll be by the end of the year? Will they fall because people are driving less to conserve or will they climb due to the falling dollar and other factors?

Our Haunted Weekend....Day 2

Our Hunted Weekend….Day 2

After a very tasty breakfast, everyone gathered in the back yard relaxing, having our coffee and discussing their experiences at the Holt house. The spirits seem to like Mary and had only showed themselves once to her. However, will have a verity of friends and family who will visit and spend the night over. They are the ones who seem to have the unusual experiences. It will be from strange noises to seeing dark misty shapes to smelling breakfast cooking in the middle of the night.


Our Hunted Weekend

Day 1


Unwelcome Spirits

For many of us we are not aware that spirits resides with us. They will live in the background and enjoy the activities the living residents do such as parties and watching tv, listening to music. Has anyone remembered watching “The Christmas Carol” ? Scrooge at one time was at a party and he was enjoying himself watching everyone have a good time. Once in a while a person will find a spirit in the house that will interact with them. This is what Harley and Sally found in their home.


The Unseen Children

All of our cases are unique. For me each one is a learning experience. Some of these cases are harder to write about then others. This is a case that involved a few of the many innocent children that walk in the spirit world.


The ones they left behind

It was a cold rainy day when I pull up in front of the old jail annex building in Mudbaden, just outside of Jordan. I haven’t been feeling well in the past few weeks and the gloomy weather hadn’t picked up my spirits very much.

As I sat in my car over looking the building I was reminded of the e mails I received about this building. I even was stopped at the store and was told about this building and the activities that went on. As I observed the building the strongest impression was that of an old person.


Breaking a Legend…Maybe

It has been a wild spring for Minnesota, cold and wet. And now it’s warmer but it is still wet and the projects that I have wanted to try this year has been beckoning me to start no matter how the weather was.


Ghost in the house

Well I have a spook in the house. Where he came from I do not know. He may have followed me home from some of the many locations that I have been to. Probably from the Landmark, I have been taking a number of my classes there.

It’s not a major haunting, just enough to let me know he’s there.


Is Ignorance Bliss?

I have been studying phenomena of ghosts for over 25 years; I have been hunting ghost for over 10 of these years. I still cannot say my any means that I am an expert, truthfully no one can. There is still so much to be discovered and so many questions that have yet to be answered. The closest anyone can say is we have X amount of years studying ghost.


April's Mom

I write about are true stories of the supernatural that I personally have experienced. Sometimes there is more to the story then I tell about. With Mothers Day coming up I thought this would be the best time to tell this about this case.


Walking Spirits

I have been aware for some time now about these spirits. What has prompted me writing about them is some of the articles I have been reading about them. They do not call these poor souls Walking Spirits, they are called “Tramp Souls or Spirits” “Vagabond Spirits” “Restless Spirits” and other not so nice names.

I prefer to call them “Walking Spirits” The American Indians knew about these spirits for centuries. These are spirits that have chosen not to cross over at the time they needed to for what ever reason and wonder the world.
