TelevisionI make no claim as to the validity of any of these videos--they have only been added for good-clean-fun purposes. Except for the TAPS one; those guys rock! Enjoy!

This episode of "Ghost Hunters" was even more awesome to me because I had actually taken a ghost tour in this St. Augustine, Fla., lighthouse. Very cool and very creepy.

Heroes

You are The High Priestess

Science, Wisdom, Knowledge, Education.

The High Priestess is the card of knowledge, instinctual, supernatural, secret knowledge. She holds scrolls of arcane information that she might, or might not reveal to you. The moon crown on her head as well as the crescent by her foot indicates her willingness to illuminate what you otherwise might not see, reveal the secrets you need to know. The High Priestess is also associated with the moon however and can also indicate change or fluxuation, particularily when it comes to your moods.

About me:
I'm writing a book about people who "haunt" ghosts. There are so many books about hauntings out there (which I very much enjoy), but I want to know about the people who seek out what's beyond our normal perception--paranormal investigators, psychics, mediums, Spiritualists, etc. I believe in ghosts, so I'm not coming from a debunking camp. There is so much in our world that defies explanation; who are we to say there is nothing beyond what we know? Do you have an opinion about the paranormal? I'd love to hear it.

I'm also the founder and editor of Epitaphs Magazine and TheCemeteryClub.com.

If you have haunted cemetery experiences you'd like to share, or if you'd like to be part of this project, contact me. I'd love to hear from you!

Who I'd like to meet:

Short Essay Competition Announced: Do You Believe in Ghosts?

Submit a 500+ word essay on why you believe in ghosts, and you could be featured in my latest book. Everyone who submits an essay will receive a special gift. E-mail your essays to minda.epitaphsmag@gmail.com with "I Believe in Ghosts" in the subject line. For more information, e-mail Minda at the aforementioned address. I look forward to hearing your stories!

Now back to who I'd like to meet ...

YOU. I am looking for people to interview who have had paranormal experiences in cemeteries. Experiences can be big or small.

I'm also looking for ghost hunters to share their experiences. And it's not just the ghosts I'm interested in--I'm interested in you. What were the circumstances that led you to become a ghost investigator? What led you to the cemetery?

If there are any ghosts out there who live in cemeteries, I'd like to interview you, too.

DO YOU WANT TO BE INTERVIEWED?

If you have an interest in the paranormal (specifically in hauntings), let's talk! These are the types of people I want to interview:
- Ghost hunters (professional or amateur)
- People who live/have lived in haunted houses
- People who have had paranormal experiences in cemeteries
- Psychics with experience with hauntings
- Cemetery sextons or other cemetery employees who know tales of their cemetery's hauntings or urban legends
- Cemetery and ghost walk tour founders and guides

"I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,
Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine."

I now have several interesting stories from "friends" in my "comments" area, about ghosts, esp, and other bizarre experiences.
I hope you too will share some of your experiences there.
I'm just trying to create a friendly place for "friends" to share and compare their experiences with each other.
