The Paranormal and Supernatural
The paranormal involves many different aspects of the supernatural. It has a lot to do with haunted houses, ghost and spirit visitations and so much more. Almost every state, country and region has haunted and chilling tales to tell. I am almost positive it would be hard to determine where the most haunted place in the world was because there are so many. So this page is about many haunted events in houses, hotels and graveyards that I have found.
Living in a haunted house can bring a lot of anxiety into a person's life. When it comes to the supernatural there are facts that have been proven both physically and scientifically. Or should I rephrase that and say, some occurrences cannot be proven wrong by scientific theories.
Why do ghost exist? Do they exist? Why do ghost haunt certain places and some places are never haunted? The questions are never ending, and yet the paranormal activities continue. In today's world with more and more people searching for answers, there are many paranormal investigators becoming available to help you. I have several listed on this page and my hopes are to have more as this circulates.

Haunted Toys and Dolls
Can toys be hosts for the spirit world? Discovering the TRUTH behind haunted items. Do previous owners of objects such as: dolls, toys, or other sentimental items attach themselves to it after they pass away? Or do "lost" spirits find the host item through their journey in our world? Or is everything just our imagination?
Throughout history we have heard thousands of stories in connection with a doll whose eyes will follow you across the room or change positions, some even talk through EVPs to one another. Other claims of missing items or objects being moved. Is there any truth to all of this?

A Capture of a real "apparitions"
KPI-Haunted Doll Cam Capture!!!
OMG!! You have got to watch this video. Traci and Tom Watkins founders of KPI posted this on FaceBook: On March 20 2009, something strange and inexplicable happened at the Doll House, a live cam feed which was only a few months old. A visitor appeared on camera and stayed for almost 2 minutes. Only one cam viewer saw it, but she was able to capture 4 screen images of the incredible event. What or who was it and why did ...it appear? The apparition wanted to be seen! -- Music by Stefano Barone

Silent Voices Paranormal
One day while I was searching through FaceBook I ran across Silent Voices Paranormal. I wrote them an email and asked if they would be interested in being posted on my lens Investigating the Paranormal. This is a lens where I will listing different Paranormal Groups that I run across and feel could benefit you.I really liked the email and the concept of this group, just as with KP-Knight Paranormal Investigators they mission is to teach people and to help them. If you get a chance, take a look at Investigating the Paranormal and if you have a group, contact me and I would be more than happy to speak with you.
I wanted to share another fantastic FaceBook group with you that I believe you will enjoy. It is ran by Marilyn Biersdorff Borst and the name of the group is: Unexplained World and Paranormal
COLORADO
Colorado
When it comes to haunted Colorado; one of the first things that usually comes to mind is the movie- The Shining. The story takes place in a The Stanley Hotel nestled in the Rocky Mountains in a village of Estes Park, Colorado.
Another popular place is located in Colorado Springs, Colorado called The Broadmoor Hotel. It is a huge beautiful Hotel that is considered a five star, five diamond luxury hotel/resort. It was built in the early 20th century as the Grand Dame of the Rockies. But behind all of this beauty there are numerous reports of hauntings. My experience is among them. Click on link to read more

FLORIDA
Florida: The Stranahan House Haunted Tour
Fort Lauderdale, Flordia
This page was written by lensmaster Shar
The group as a whole was taken from room to room, we were allowed to take photos, as well as use digital recorders, which I did both. The home plainly felt eery. It felt as though at any moment someone or something may pop out of any corner in any given room. I experienced many cold spots throughout the tour. I could sense the presents of spirits in several rooms, actually I just knew when to have my snap a photo of any given room. (Larry was taking the photos, as I used the digital recorder.) I might add, he was being a great sport about the whole experience....

The truth is, Georgia like all other states has a lot of ghost stories, especially in the mountains and South Georgia. The old gothic feeling of Savannah is a must see. Oh, and I promise you will see or feel a ghost while you are there!
Haunted Cemeteries
To Read More Click on Link
If you do a Google search for Haunted Cemeteries, you will find 7,590,000 results. That is a lot of information about haunted cemeteries. When you think of haunted cemeteries, you get flashes of movies like Night of the Living Dead and people sprouting up through dirt. Of course that is how television portrays the spooky, eerie feelings of a cemetery. But what about Real encounters people have had, or what about all of the *orbs people have seen.
LOUISIANA
Louisiana-Myrtles Plantation
To Read More-Click on Link
As legend has it, one of the owners Woodruff favored a slave name Chloe. Once Woodruff's interest in her began to fade, she became jealous and in fear of being sent out to work in the fields, Chloe would continuously eaves-drop on Woodruff. After being caught many times Woodruff became fed up with her and had her offending ear cut off. From that time on Chloe would always wear a green turban to hide the missing ear.
Haunted New Orleans
To Read More-Click on Link
New Orleans is everywhere when you start talking about being haunted; the cemeteries, the voodoo, the wild night life, ghost, spirits, haunted bed and breakfast and hotels. This place just fascinates me to no end. When I visited Savannah Georgia, it had a similar "feel" as New Orleans, but you know there is only one New Orleans and nothing can really compare to it
Haunted New Orleans
Hotel #1 The Provincial Hotel
Provincial Hotel:This hotel is located in the French Quarters and once was known as a Confederate Hospital.
As you will hear in the video, it is said that you can hear the moans and cry for help throughout the complex of the building and see many ghostly figures often appearing on both sides of the bed in the bedrooms. Private Séances have been done in this hotel with great success and many EVP's have been captured.
There have been reports of doors opening and closing on their own, unexplainable footsteps, odd whispering noises, cold spots and again as you will hear in the video, someone once seen their sheets turn bloody. (did I hear that right?)
MICHIGAN
Haunted Michigan
Although some of the hauntings reported in Michigan has been debunked, there are still other stories that will send chills down your spine. Take a look at this lens and let me know what you think, if you can debunk it, please send me the link and I will post it and let others choose for themselves.

HAUNTED CASTLES
Haunted Castles
When it comes to haunted castles especially in England, there is a very long list. I love watching Ghost Hunters International because they visit many different castles with very spooky tales.
What do you think it is about castles that give them the reputation of being haunted? Could it be because most of them are centuries old, we hear chilling tales of things that happened in the dungeons? Click on link to read more

- Haunted Waverly Hill-Louisville, KY
- The Waverly Hills Sanitarium in Louisville Kentucky has it all-- cold spots, disembodied voices, and ghosts roaming the halls. It sits on a great hill overlooking the city and seems like a reigning fortress of gloom in its eerie, decaying state.
- Dudleytown, CT
- "Dudleytown," the notorious ghost town near Cornwall, Connecticut, when I was sixteen. The dark legends surrounding the area were titillating. Wild tales of demonic activity, poltergeists, pitiful ghosts, and unexplained phenomenon are the order of the day in Dudleytown. The findings from paranormal research incited my interest to little less than a voracious frenzy. I am not alone; Dudleytown is one of the most well known places of purported supernatural activity in New England
- Lucedio Abbey, Italy
- The GHI (Ghost Hunters International) team headed over to Italy to investigate a millennia-old abbey that was apparently used for some pretty heinous executions and whatnot in the name of religion, and supposedly not sanctioned by the Church at the time. Right away Brian started seeing shadows, specifically moving towards Donna.
- Haunted Britain
- There are nine separate stories that focus on Hauntings in Britain

According to Windygig in the guestbook, Van Horn Mansion in Appleton, New York is haunted place. I did some research and found this site: Van Horn Mansion Take a Look, and tell me what you think. I believe it was really cool to be asked to bring your dog, because dogs are very psychic and can pick up many supernatural things. I know my yorkie-Danu is always letting me know-We are not alone!
