The Many Aspects Of Paranormal Tourism

By Tammie Caldwell


Most people do not realize a love for something until having experienced it for the first time. Something that is extremely true when it comes to Paranormal Tourism. While there are a number of shows surrounding ghost hunting and movies like Ghostbusters, many do not take these type movies and shows seriously.

While based in fiction, Ghostbusters, Ghosts and other films can provide some insight into a haunting. Though, with so many individuals now working as ghost hunters, researchers and tour guides, individuals have the opportunity to explore a number of sightings. For a list ghost tours, haunted sites, hotels and other locations, a quick online search can provide a number of interesting returns.

Speaking of history, it seems a great number of ghost sightings and stories are related to historical events like the Civil War, or Holocaust. Not surprisingly, there have been many sightings in areas in which these events took place. One ghost tour related to an historical event is that of one in San Antonio, Texas related to the Alamo.

The ghost tour at the Alamo is different than many others in that the tour guides allow the tourists to use various paranormal equipment during the 90 minute tour. The equipment is most often distributed at the beginning of the tour in which the guests are allowed to tour the grounds of the Alamo in search of various responses to electromagnetic meters and other items. After which, the tour guide then takes the parties to other sites which have reported sightings.

While aliens, UFOs and vampires are much harder to prove than ghosts, there are those who claim to have either been abducted, or having seen an alien empire. Once these aliens surface, perhaps then and only then will tourists be allowed in the underground tunnels and empires which are rumored to exist underneath the streets of many cities and towns. As for vampires, this will probably be the hardest aspect of the supernatural to prove even though there are currently tours in New Orleans, Louisiana and other cities related specifically to these dark creatures of the night.

Visitors to the Queen Mary can board and tour the ship either with a guide, or at times, without. Most often those whom roam the ship alone report a sighting of some form or the other. Whereas, those on the ghost tour get a description of all sightings which have been known to take place. Whether believer, skeptic or uncertain, this is rumored to be one of the most haunted locations and one of the best tours in southern California.

When it comes to haunted cities in the United States, most believe Savannah, Georgia and New Orleans, Louisiana to be the most haunted. St. Augustine, Florida being the oldest city is also rumored to have a number of ghosts residing within the city limits. Most often the ghosts in these areas are rumored to walk cemeteries, reside in bars, basements and historical mansions or roam the streets.

These well known locations often report the most sightings. Although, as spirits are reported to be lost souls of those whom have experienced a tragic death, ghosts often reside in the same place in which one lived, or died. Although, some have also been known to travel from one physical location to another.
