Who ya gonna call? GHOSTBUSTERS!

My #ConfessFriday - I believe in ghosts.

No, really. I do.
I believe in ghosts.
I've seen ghosts.
And, I think my house is haunted. (As does my sister...she claims she gets a 'creepy' feeling whenever she's here alone!)

I've always had a fascination with the paranormal.

Tomorrow, I have the chance to experience the paranormal....

Kevin and I are going on an overnight ghost hunt at the Ohio State Reformatory.
You know....the prison where 'The Shawshank Redemption' was filmed.
One of THE most haunted places in the United States.

Yep, that's where we are spending the night tomorrow.
From 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. we will be roaming the haunted hallways and investigating the creepy cells....looking for ghosts, spirits and the like.

I cannot wait.

We have flashlights ready. And a digital video camera and our digital camera. Oh, and an "old school" point-and-shoot with film (because, according to the prison's Web site, sometimes the digital cameras don't pick up the paranormal). We also have a compass ... because apparently compasses often 'go wonky' when something paranormal is happening.

I am really hoping that we see something. Or hear something. Or get touched by something. Oh my gosh...can you imagine?!?!??!?

As excited as I am, I have to admit...I'm also a bit scared. I told Kevin if he lets go of my hand ONCE during the entire "hunt" I will never speak to him again. And I'll leave him locked in solitary. Forever. (haha)

Unfortunately (for me at least), cell phones are not permitted inside the prison during the ghost hunt...so my hopes of Tweeting as I hunt for ghosts have been dashed. However, I will tweet when we get there. And we are allowed to take breaks in our cars -- we just can't leave the actual prison property or our 'hunt' will be over. So, if we head back to the car at any point during the night, I'll tweet some of our adventures.

And....you know I'll blog all about it.

  1. I believe in ghosts too. I also believe I would crap my pants if on one of those hunts. You are a brave woman in my book. Have fun, can't wait to read all about it. Happy Haunting!
