Scarefest

This weekend a few member of our team attended Scarefest in Lexington Ky. Presented by Ghost Chasers International (aka. Patti Starr), its targeted to those folks who love paranormal stuff and horror movies. Interesting combination wouldn't you say? Of course, we went down to mainly partake in the paranormal side of things but were quite surprised at the other vendor booths and seminars dedicated to the best the horror movie industry had to offer.

I am not a horror fan myself. I love a good suspense/thriller but just can't handle the blood and gore movies. For those who do really dig that type of thing, there were a few celebrities who were more than willing to sign pictures and paraphernalia for you. Some of them included Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes and One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest), Sid Haig (House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects) and Kane Hodder (portrayed Jason in Friday The 13th) just to name a few.

I was there to learn more from some resident paranormal experts. There were many seminars available over the three day event and all offered something unique to everyone. The biggest thrill for me was listening to Chip Coffey (Paranormal State and Psychic Kids) talk about his psychic abilities and field questions from the audience.

He drew a large crowd in his seminar and the Q & A session was lively.

The event overall was well organized and the seminars ran like clockwork. I was also thrilled (completely an understatement!) to see an ad for our investigative team in the program! What a fabulous way to get the word out! Thanks much to Pattie Starr for awarding us that opportunity!

As far as future investigations, we have two possible cases coming in the future - one is an abandoned house here on the east side of Cincinnati (if the owners are willing!) and one occupied home in Louisville Ky. I have stories on both of these houses and we are more than ready to tackle both!
