Boo!

Haunted houses are a thing of the past. Today we have moved to actually going to haunted places. The more activity the better.
I love to watch Ghost Hunters on the SciFi channel. I love getting to learn about the history of old buildings and places where people once lived. One place that stands out to me is Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Lousville, KY. The ghost hunters did a Halloween special once there and I have loved it since. My friends and I planned to spend a night up there one day, but we haven't gotten around to it. It costs a bit of money to stay in the sanatorium over night. I have heard that if you stay inside the sanatorium all night then you get your money back, but I'm not quite sure of this. I would love to one day spend the night there, or somewhere equally as creepy. I am not quite sure where my fascination for the paranormal came from but I love to learn about it and I would love to experience it one day. Paranormal activity is far from boring, but it can cost quite a lot. The TAPS team, ghost hunters on SciFi, use digital thermometers, EMF meters, thermographic and night vision cameras, handheld and static digital video cameras, digital audio recorders, laptop computers, and a K-2 meter. This equipment can get quite pricey and at this point in time I cannot aford to buy it all. One day though, I plan to have some of the equipment and use it on a haunted area.
I once went on a ghost hunt around Owensboro with my friend and her family, because they had won tickets for the tour. I got to see some of the various spots that activity has been detected. I even saw some pictures of people with ghosts. I loved it. While we were in front of the Glenn Davis Funeral Home (I believe that was the funeral home) my K-2 meter started to blink. I looked at my meter and looked around me. When we got close to the parking lot it was still going off so the tour guide took a picture of me so we could see if anything was close by. We all looked at the picture and next to me was an orb. While this may seem that that was not enough to say that there was a ghost I still find amazement in it. I loved that minute and I know that one day I would love to get to go into more intense research of a haunted building or area, so therefore it has gone onto my bucket list.
