Some Christian denominations teach that all paranormal is evil, to discourage their flocks from dabbling with ghosts. This thinking is flawed as ignorance does nothing to prevent supernatural activity. Believing spirits don’t exist won’t protect you. Once, I lived in a condo where I frequently woke to find a shadow person standing by my bed. [...]
St. Mary’s Arts Center, the former hospital and orphanage for the 1870s’ silver boom town of Virginia City, Nevada, isn’t the most haunted place I’ve visited, but it’s still quite active. A passerby may mistake this three-story, red brick building as a large, stately mansion with its long driveway lined by parched, thin trees. A [...]

In the late 1800’s, the upper stories of the Washoe housed the exclusive Millionaire’s Club—a bastion of the Comstock Lode’s rich and influential—where power deals had been forged [...]
Intuitives say children can easily plug into the spirit world. It’s believed that since their souls haven’t been in bodies as long as adults, the young retain subconscious memories of the spirit world. Family reactions impact ESP. Sensitive Jason Lindo spoke at the Nevada Ghost and Paranormal Conference some years back. As a small child, [...]
On the way to the Goldfield Hotel with my family in 2012, we stop at the Mizpah Hotel in Tonopah and visit room 309, where my parents—Bryan and Darlene—had their own ghostly adventure years ago. Mom and Dad watched the breaking news on the television in disbelief: Lady Diana died in a car accident. After [...]
