Welcome to That’s So Ghostly! This blog will cover far more things than just your average ghostly encounters. Along with ghosts, this blog will include; legends from around the world, creatures/monsters (humans included), paranormal, and supernatural topics. At the end of this post, I’ve included a definitions list of the topics listed above.
I have always been a believer in the supernatural. My earliest experiences with ghostly encounters started when I was five, right after my grandpa passed away. Every night I would feel someone sit down at the foot of my bed. I felt the mattress and blankets move, and it felt as if I wasn’t alone. I would look up to see if maybe my cat had jumped up on the bed, but he was not even in the room.
The thing is, however, is that I was never afraid. The very idea of ghosts, evil spirits, monsters, or an actual house being haunted has never frightened me. I have always been pulled towards the strange and unusual. With this blog, I hope to be able to share my love for these topics, the research I have done while adding my own opinion, and – in some cases – share my own experiences.
Each post written will be published on a monthly basis. The next publishing date for pending blog posts can be found at the end of every piece. If there comes a time where, for whatever reason, I cannot post a topic on time; I’ll post an update with the anticipated publishing date in mind. Updates will be visible on the That’s So Ghostly Blog page and the That’s So Ghostly Facebook page.
Located below the pending date of each future post will be every article/website I have used to obtain the information and help solidify my opinions. Whether I gain the info straight off Google, or if I end up not using it at all, everything I read is automatically added to the sources list. I do my best to stay away from Wikipedia because the information they provided is not reliable.
Comments are welcomed! I would love to hear about your personal experiences, stories, and even your own thoughts on the subject matter. I firmly believe that people can learn and grow off constructive criticism. So, please, do not become rude or hostile to those whose opinions or ways of thinking differ from your own.
With that said, I hope that those who choose to read That’s So Ghostly will enjoy the topics I have written about. This blog is not about trying to turn skeptics into believers. If you choose not to believe, that’s great. If you are a true believer, then that’s great, too. I began writing this blog because I want to share a few of my passions with people; writing, the abnormal, and occasional true stories.
I am so excited to begin posting! Please check back on January 10, 2022, to read That’s So Ghostly’s first official five-part post: Pentagram of Blood. Post #1: Pyramid of the Sun.
