Laughter and Gin

A Happy November to you all!

Tonight I had the great pleasure of guiding a mixed group of brave individuals through the haunted streets of Downtown Tampa.  A mixed group consists of people who are seasoned ghost tour consumers and novice ghost tour attendees.  I love getting newbies!  It's fun to watch them experience every aspect of touring and hunting for the first time. 

There was one set of plucky young ladies who volunteered to commandeer my handy EMF detector.  Every beep of the machine gave them new waves of excitement. 

My look for the night was relatively simple.  I call it Evil Disney Queen.  (see below)







I guess this would be the Evil Queen from Snow White meets Maleificent.  I hope to one day be as fabulous as either of them.  

After the touring and ghost hunting was over, I was invited to drinks by the plucky fair maidens who had bravely wielded my EMF detector.  I don't normally do this, but for these young ladies I made an exception.
We made our way to a nearby pub and shared more stories over drinks.  Amidst the shouting and screaming at the tv over the -insert local sports team- game, the ladies listened while I told them some stories that are not on the tour, extra goodies that I rarely get to share.

These stories are not for the faint of heart; I'm afraid I may have robbed them of a good night's sleep.  We talked about urban legends, ghosts stories from other countries, EMF and EVP hunting and the three types of hauntings.  

For anyone that doesn't know, the three types of hauntings are: residual (left-over energy), intelligent (conscious energy) and demonic (inhuman and evil).   This is a bit intense so I will rant about that another time.

The evening was wonderful!  Great company, beautiful weather, stiff drinks.  What more could a lady ask for?

It's nights such as these that make me appreciate and love what I do for a living.  I am proud to be a siren who sings for her supper.  


Until next time,
