Paranormal News! 8 June

Because even paranormal museum owners occasionally take a vacation, I was away for a few weeks. But we're back with this week's news of the odd and paranormal. 1) Is Bigfoot in Kentucky? Believers say yes, and now there's a Bigfoot festival there to boot. A Bigfoot festival is exactly the sort of thing the San Benedetto Paranormal Museum could get behind...if it weren't in flat-as-a-pancake San Benedetto. Honestly, I can't think of a least likely place for Bigfoot to appear.

Paranormal News! 11 May 2018

Things are starting to heat up here in San Benedetto, and the scent of dairy farms is slowly rolling through town. Fortunately, you don't notice it inside the Paranormal Museum. It's too thickly scented by Eau de Spooky Museum. Ever noticed how museums have a certain smell? Yeah, that's it. Anyway, it's not a bad smell, at least not when compared to cow. Where was I? Oh, yeah. Paranormal news of the week! 1) Some kids graduate and go on a European tour, others decide to make

Happy May, Everyone! It's still a little foggy in San Benedetto, but any day now I know the weather will shift to brutally hot, so I'm kind of enjoying the spooky mist. 1) My own oddball career as paranormal museum curator aside, I don't think I could ever recommend someone get this particular college degree, but... paranormal studies is a thing. 2) Check out the most haunted hotel in the Philippines! 3) Sometimes when photographing cemeteries, odd things happen.

Paranormal News! 27 April 2018

Here in San Benedetto, we've got the usual spring weather that doesn't know what it wants to me. Stifling hot? Cool and foggy? Hot and foggy and scented with dairy farm? (It happens, trust me). Good thing the Paranormal Museum is temperature controlled, so come on in! 1) Was this family of vacationers photobombed by a ghost? 2) April 26th was Alien Day! Who knew? Here's a roundup of the top 5 alien stories coming out of the UK. 3) HELP WANTED: PARANORMAL INVESTIGATOR. UK RESI

Paranormal News of the Week! 20 April

It's a good news/bad news/weird news sort of week. I'll start with the bad, so we can get it over with. Farewell to Art Bell, host of the paranormal radio show, Coast to Coast AM, and who passed away on Friday the 13th. Did this drone capture the ghost of a mounted knight at the site of King Edward II's murder? I'll be honest - I'm not seeing it, but maybe you can. UFOs in New Jersey. Rare concept art for Disneyland's original haunted mansion is up for auction. Hm... I'd love

It's Friday the 13th, and creepy things are happening all over. Heh, not really. But here's this week's paranormal news anyway. 1) The Definitely Not Faked Paranormal Film Footage Challenge! I wish the paranormal museum had thought of this event... (The link is to a podcast, and the good stuff starts at the 27:38 mark, if you want to skip past the knitting and curling news). 2) A new report on some old paranormal news - victims of the Entfield Poltergeist still insist it was

Paranormal News! 6 April 2018

Several visitors have inquired as to whether we at the San Benedetto Paranormal Museum can investigate whether their homes are haunted. Sadly, we cannot. However, my assistant Leo is starting a ghost tour, so watch this space for more info! And now, the paranormal news of the week! A college course on Bigfoot? Yes, it exists. (Brigitte, you might want to check into this). The ghost of a balloon haunts a pub in England. Or something. Terrified landlady reports!!! Can dogs see

Paranormal News! 30 March 2018

April is on its way, and so is the San Benedetto Paranormal Museum's new exhibit - in honor of April Fool's Day: a History of Paranormal Pranks. My assistant, Leo, had great fun putting this together. So stop on by our gallery starting April 1st and get inspired! There was lots of ghostly news this week, so decided to just stop resisting and go full haunting today. A vintage Victorian-era spiritualist photograph. Stop on by our museum to see our collection of spiritualist rel

Welcome to this week's paranormal news, Spring Equinox addition. 1) Nessie exists!!! I would have said the lake monster "lives," but, er... Maybe not. 2) Teaching kids about haunted dolls? What could POSSIBLY go wrong? 3) I love this story. A prankster has been adding directions to English road signs... to mythical places like Middle Earth. 4) For our Canadian friends, a "suspicious" ghost hunting device triggers bomb scare. 5) And in more international paranormal news, a Fin

At the San Benedetto Paranormal Museum, we're still recovering from the craziness of last December's Christmas Cow disaster/curse. But we're not slowing down! 1) The Pentagon releases another crazy UFO video. Keep in mind, the "U" in "UFO" stands for unidentified, so we don't really know what this is. It's just... unidentified. 2) Did a ghost cause this taxi to crash into a tree? 3) The "true" ghost story behind the new Netflix film, Veronica. And it's really creepy. 4) Annua

Paranormal News! 9 March

I had to double check the date on a few of these stories to make sure they weren't early April Fools' Day jokes. Is the paranormal getting... weirder? Or is it my imagination? 1) With the growing demand for exorcists, an independent organization is offering exorcisms online. 2) The Russian Navy's secret UFO files, unleashed! (I used to live over there, and am convinced the Russian military intentionally fanned the fires of UFO stories to cover up for activities on their own b

Welcome to March! They say March is in like a lion and out like a lamb. I hope it's true, because it is seriously cold and breezy here in buccolic San Benedetto. The way the oak branches groan in the wind inspires a thousand ghost stories... And here are some real life stories of the weird and paranormal: 1) Leicester, England has a new haunted antiques research center. Now that's niche! Of course, if you visit the San Benedetto Paranormal museum, you'll not only see haunted

Paranormal News! 23 February 2018

Welcome to another week of the top five in paranormal news! It's a totally subjective ranking, but the supernatural is sort of subjective too. 1) And speaking of subjective, the debate over ghosts are real or hallucinations continues. And why do ghost stories go back centuries and cross cultures? 2) Is the Internet killing magic? This witch claims it is so. 3) California woman sues the state over their denial of the existence of Bigfoot. Such a litigious society we live in...

1) For a museum that doesn't "do" UFOs, I sure end up writing about them a lot on this blog. A new Marist poll indicates that 68% of Americans think there's intelligent life on other planets. It's a big universe, so the idea that we're alone just seems unlikely to me. 2) A group of ghost hunters in Cornwall is using the power of social media for their explorations. They've asked their Facebook followers if any can "tune in" to the vibes coming off a... wait for it... haunted

Huzzah! The San Benedetto Paranormal Museum is back for your weekly supernatural goodness! Here's my top five round-up for the last seven days. 1) Last week, my fellow blogger, witch and barista Jayce Bonheim, wrote about a witch restaurant. It must be a trend, because here's a supernatural cafe with witchy elixirs. 2) And speaking of witches, Slovakian police have put out a warning about witches hanging out in Bratislava parking lots. 3) Have you ever been on a ghost hunt?

Welcome to this week's paranormal news from the San Benedetto Paranormal Museum! For the month of February, when you buy a museum ticket, you'll also get an amazing Fortune Telling Fish, which reveals your romantic state! 1) I normally shy away from ghost photos - there are so many on the Internet - but this one caught my eye. A tourist took a picture of a mysterious figure in an English castle, and even professional paranormal investigators can't explain it. Log that under p

Mothman? Happy January from the San Benedetto Paranormal Museum! Here's this week's delightfully wacky roundup. 1) The Mothman is back! Or maybe he never left? In 2017, Chicagoans reported 55 sightings of this elusive creature. 2) Oy vey. Is an Arizona family being haunted by a Yiddish-speaking poltergeist? 3) And, the Dear David saga goes on. Should you not be familiar with it, writer Adam Ellis has been posting ghostly happenings in his apartment on his Twitter and Instagra

Paranormal News! 12 January

Aside from the fact I may soon need reading glasses, does it mean anything if I read the words "chronic lateness" and see "chthonic lateness?" I think it could be a fancy way of saying someone's the type to be late to their own funeral. Word of the day, folks, because this is an educational blog. Anyway! On to this week's paranormal news? 1) Are you in the market for a haunted castle? (Who isn't?). You're in luck, because one's back on the market. 2) Is this the ghost of Sta

Happy New Year and happy new paranormal news from the San Benedetto Paranormal Museum! 1) You can get anything on the Internet, including, apparently, lost souls on eBay. 2) The X-Files is back with season 11, and the actors have a love-hate relationship with their characters. After eleven years on the job, who can blame them? 3) Dear David holiday update! Creepy. So creepy... 4) What does it take to be a good ghosthunter? Listening skills.
