Swinger Road: The Demonic Proves its Power

A terrifying demonic presence proves its power to the brothers of “Paranormal Nightmare”.

If You Are Haunted

We tend to think that ghosts are either souls “out there” that have drifted into our homes and sacred spaces, or that something about us, our emotions, have disturbed the physical world. We divide our reality into neat categories: us and them. Spirit and matter. Light and dark. Our energy versus their energy. When itContinue reading “If You Are Haunted”

The Ghost of Gumiel

When you might have been loved by a spirit, it’s hard to let him go.

Time, Ghosts, and the Haunting of Corriganville

Corriganville Ranch/Park is hidden in the east hills around Simi Valley, in a gulley between mountain ranges. It was a movie ranch, a theme park, and finally a regional park.

There is this nagging question that I have asked myself for years. Do we create–at least in part–the paranormal phenomena that we later claim plagues us? Or that intrigues us? What, exactly, is the relationship of what is “out there” as objective, disembodied intelligence and “in here”, a product of our own consciousness? Is there,Continue reading “Creating Your Ghosts . . . and Your Hell”
