Frequently Asked Questions
What services do you offer?
I offer a range of solutions designed to meet your needs—whether you're just needing a haunted hotspot recommendation, booking a haunted hotel or ghost tour, or planning a full trip for you or your group. Everything is tailored to your specific needs and wants to help you move forward with your next paranormal adventure with confidence.
What's the difference between dark tourism and ghost hunting?
Both dark tourism and ghost hunting explore places connected to death, tragedy, or mystery, but they differ in the purpose, intentions, focus, and methods.
Dark tourism grounds itself in confirmed historical events — such as visiting battlefields or concentration camps — while ghost hunting focuses on gathering data about spirit activity and attempting to detect, and even contact, spirits.
Dark tourists are motivated by learning the history, understanding, and remembrance while paranormal investigators are motivated by gathering data and trying to experience paranormal activity.
There is often overlap between dark tourism and ghost hunting.
Do you charge for your services?
As a dark tourism travel advisor, I do NOT charge for my services however I do receive commission from suppliers. This will NOT increase your costs.
How do you find and research these locations?
I have spent and continue to spend countless hours researching locations across the United States. I set up group events to many of these locations and I do a lot of solo travel for the purpose of scouting out new places. I also research international locations for group trips as well as curating trips for individuals and groups. If you are interested in a trip, all you need to do is contact me to get started.
Can readers suggest a location for you to cover?
It never hurts to ask! I have visited so many places but I haven’t written about all of them just yet. It is very possible that I have visited a place but haven’t published an article about it yet. I make no promises though because I have a job and family, and…..well, life just happens and may get in my way.
How can I work with you (sponsorships, guest posts, and collaborations)?
Contact me! I am open to all and look forward to networking. If you are a paranormal group organizer, I am happy to work with you to create the perfect trip for you, your group, and even others if you want to create a public event. Ireland or Romania at Halloween is a ton of fun with your paranormal besties!
Are the places you write about safe to visit?
All of the places I visit are done so with permission from the owner/manager. I do not visit places that are unsafe but some of locations are not managed as well as others so conditions could vary year to year. Please do NOT assume every place continues to be a safe to visit. PLEASE EXERCISE CAUTION AT ALL LOCATIONS.
Do I need a lot of equipment for this?
There is a plethora of paranormal equipment out there but you can get started with a digital camera, audio recorder, and EMF meter. You can buy those items without spending a ton of money. Visit my online store (see the “SHOP” tab at the top of the page) for items that I have personally purchased and can vouch for. I do not sell those items; I am only showing them as personal recommendations. I am not responsible for anything purchased.
Do you offer tours or meetups at any of the places about which you write?
I do offer group events from time to time which will be advertised as I set them up. You also have the option of contacting me to set up private events for your group.
