Overview…
As each week goes by I often find myself stumbling across various news, social media posts, blogs, articles, books, TV shows and more in relation to the paranormal. Often some of these pass me by never to be seen again, which can be a shame as when I see them I know that I want to read more on them. However, it can often be the wrong time, there are other more pressing things to take care of. As we are often bombarded by lots of this such information only a daily basis, a lot is lost in the digital ether.
So, what I wanted to do with this regular post is attempt to gather some various pieces of information that others like me may be interested to read. I’ve broken this down into a few categories below for now, hopefully you’ll like it – would love to hear your thoughts on the matter?
Higgypop Paranormal Entertainment Awards
This week saw a few mentions online regarding the upcoming Higgypop Paranormal Entertainment Awards, with a number of people we may all just recognise up as nominees this year.
If you’re interested in voting or just wish to see who’s up for an award this time around check out the Higgypop Website. There are 68 nominees across 15 categories to consider. Categories covering everything from the individual ghost hunter to movies, TV shows and more. There is even a category for best paranormal blogger, just saying.
Here is a few of the items that caught my eye this week on social media. There were actually a load more, but I didn’t want to overload this first regular news post.
- A Poltergeist in Chechnya
- Why do kids see ghosts
- Paranormal Association introduces their 2019-20 Board of Directors
Okay I’ll be honest, I don’t watch a whole lot of TV these days. However, I understand that its become quite important to the paranormal community, so I will do my best to find links to some paranormal TV related stuff.
- Help My House Is Haunted returns to our screens on the 7th November, don’t forget to tune in and catch the latest episodes with the new team.
This section is somewhere I would like to share a few of the events, investigations, conventions and more that may interest you all. I’ve started with paranormal stuff happening in the UK, as that’s my home country, but may expand to other countries should this post be popular abroad too.
- Sage Paracon 4 (7-10 Nov)
- Tour of the Dammed Ghost Hunting Weekend
- Pendle Witch Ghost Hunting Weekend
I often spend a lot of my time reading paranormal related blogs, books and articles. So, I figured this would be great to share with you all too. Blogs and online articles are often a great way to discover more on the paranormal and even challenge your own perception of some concepts. There will also likely be items from published journals and magazines too in the future – which of course will be limited to those with memberships to those organisations.
- Living Life In Full Spectrum shares the spooky words of Edgar Allan Poe’s classic The Raven
- The World of the Unknown All About Ghosts
- Stuff Paranormal Investigators Need To Know Volume 1: What the eyes see and the ears hear the mind believes by Sarah Chumacero
- Incoherent Ramblings of a Sometimes-Bearded Man
- Piezoelectricity – Living Life in Full Spectrum
Although generally the idea of this post was to share some of what catches my eye in the paranormal field week to week. I thought it would be good to capture some of this stuff in one place. Makes it easier to find right?
However, there’s always going to be stuff I miss, so please feel free to send me items and I may include them too. It’s a good way to share a lot of what’s happening out there in the paranormal world.
