I am getting the opportunity next month to go to a classic haunted house. It is a little farm house in Iowa where an ax murderer killed a family. The Villisca Ax Murder House.
What is nice about this trip is that this is a place that is genuinely haunted, has no hype or games going on, and where we will be left to investigate without anyone trying to influence our experiences. It is a classic in the sense that the people involved are still said to be there, at least most of them. It has all the makings of a great 50's B movie. A family goes to church, brings home some neighbor children to spend the night, and they are all killed while sleeping in their beds...by an ax murderer. People think they know who did it, and someone even confessed, yet no one was ever formally charged.
The house has been on TV shows, and isn't for those who don't like creepy feeling places, but that is fine with me. I don't mind the drive (you all know Matt and I tend to drive 12 hours stretches just for fun), and it is a chance to really see an "icon" up close. I have been to "icons" before, but this will most likely be the smallest with the most punch. Brave people I know have gone there and were unable to get themselves to enter the attic. I promise...we are going into the attic!
There are so many haunted locations that you can rent out these days. It is easy to spend the night in a haunted location, and many do. Just make sure that you leave your bags packed in case you want to make a hasty retreat!!
Just a reminder, if you want to get into paranormal investigating,do it with people who have expertise and DO NOT use your own home as a lab. It needs to be your sanctuary. Those of us who work in the metaphysical field spend time protecting and cleansing our homes so we can sleep at night. There is absolutely no reason to invite it all in.
The first ghost walk of the year is March 31, if you are interested, let me know. It is a good way to get your "feet wet".
Happy haunting!
