Lucy Maud Montgomery, also known as “Mrs. Ewan Macdonald”, was an author of children’s stories. Most notably her series that began with the book “Anne of Green Gables” was a favorite, and still is, of little girls from every generation since it was written. All of her books are set on or around her beloved Prince Edward Island, where she lived and is now buried. Her grave is in Cavendish Community Cemetery, Cavendish, Prince Edward Island, Canada.

Ghost hunting can be a serious business for those who are truly involved in it. I haven’t seen any of the truly dedicated ones that would let anything stop them from getting where they need to go to find what they are looking for. I have even known a couple that were so determined, they took out homeowner loans to finance an overseas trip. Now, THAT is dedication. I have known even more that were willing to take out smaller, unsecured loans for in-country escapades. Personally, I think it’s a bad idea to go into debt to go ghost hunting, but then, I am fairly fortunate. The state I live in provides plenty of ghostly legends to be investigated, and I don’t have to go globe trotting to find satisfaction, Loan to finance ghost hunting just aren’t my way to go.

So, tell me. How do YOU guys finance YOUR ghost hunting?

I have been asked to talk about my garage floors. I am actually almost embarrassed to do that. After many years of my father using the garage as a workshop, both for woodworking and cars, coupled with the age of the house, our garage floor look rather shameful. Lots of cracks, lots of old oil stains. There, I hope you are satisfied. I have sincerely embarrassed myself.

The tallest man ever has been recorded as Robert Wadlow, who stood an impressive eight feet eleven inches tall. He started out life in 1918 as a completely normal sized baby (for which I am willing to bet his mother was very grateful). Problems with his pituitary gland soon became evident, however, and rapid growth was the result. By age thirteen he had attained the height of seven feet four inches. He died in 1940 at the age of only twenty-two. An infected foot was the culprit. It is said that it took a full dozen men to carry him to his grave, which is located in Upper Alton Cemetary.

Under normal circumstances, new footage from recognized media sources just doesn’t provide much that works here, but in this case, I decided to include this AP news footage. It has a pretty good view of the thing that was floating around in the gas station, better than most available paranormal footage. You be the judge.

On this one, I am speaking from personal experience. This was one of three haunted homes I lived in over the years. The legend that goes with this house varies. In one story, the house used to be a barn, and a drunk barnhand killed his son there, then hung himself. In another version, the house was built on the site of the old barn. Well, the house didn’t look like a barn. It looked like a house that had been split down the middle to make a duplex, so I tend to go with the latter story, though I could never find actual backing for either.

That the house was haunted, there is no doubt. The house is divided in such a way that there is no way to pass anything between the two sides without GOING outside and entering through either the front or back doors. Yet toys and articles of clothing from one side would mysteriously wind up on the other side. Once, the other side’s six pack of beer wound up in MY fridge, with no explanation. But the only place that FELT haunted in the house was the basement (and since barns do not HAVE basements, there goes that theory). The dogs wouldn’t go near the basement. They would just stand and bark at the basement door. The only thing IN the basement back then was my washing machine and dryer. They sat on level ground. However, my washing machine flipped on it’s side one day, as I turned to take my laundry upstairs. No one was near it when it happened, and the machine was turned off. Killed off all of MY doubts, let me tell you.

I can no longer remember the exact address of the house. If you were to go to the Bettendorf police department, stand with your back to the front door and turn left. you will be looking straight at the duplex, just down the street. The street T’s off there. It’s the only duplex on the block… provided it’s still there. his was fifteen or so years ago.

Norman Mailer, well know throughout the sixties and seventies for combining actual events with the properties of fiction and coming up with fabulous results, has died. He was eighty four years old. He had a career that spanned several decades, from the sixties to the present. He was considered to be one of the foremost modern authors.
