Happy October!

This is our busiest month of the year. Not only is Angels & Ghosts publishing pages of ghost and spirit stories, pictures, articles and videos, but I am out and about giving talks about ghosts and signing copies of my book, “Helping Ghosts: A Guide to Understanding Lost Spirits.” Additionally, we have worked hard to stock up our “fringe technology” store with unique, modified ghost investigation cameras and sweeping radios. I always look forward to “Halloween month” and the excitement it brings!

Halloween: What is it?

Recently while on a radio interview, I was asked to explain where the celebration of Halloween came from, the costumes, etc. I couldn’t do it, so I decided to look up the origins of All Hallows Eve.

Halloween is typically traced back to the Celtic celebration called “Samhain.” The word is derived from the Old Irish word samuin, meaning “summer’s end.” It was believed that the veil between the physical and spirit worlds becomes thin once a year on Samhain, allowing both harmful and harmless spirits to cross back and forth to our world. Family ancestors were honored and invited back but nefarious spirits were warded off. By disguising oneself as a bad spirit, it was believed that harmful spirits would leave the person alone. By the 16th century, a Scottish version of the festival was known as “All Hallows Eve” which was later shortened by removing the v-sound to just “Halloween.” All Hallows Eve fell on the night before All Hallows Day (October 31st) also known as All Saints Day – November 1st.

October brings about a variety of spooky attractions, so we wanted to list some of the best haunted houses and theme park scares from around the country. It’s fun sometimes to face our fears!

Have you ever wondered how many people in ghosts? We took a look at the surveys that have been conducted over the past couple decades and give you the percentages as well as our thoughts about belief in ghosts. Read the article: Believe in Ghosts?

The photo at left is one of the angel pictures from the past featured on this month’s angel pictures page. It is believed to reveal a grandmother, grandfather and two children who passed. They are overlooking the baby and family.

This month we wanted to continue to reach out to those who speak Spanish in the attempt to share some of these wonderful angelic images. You can see our second installment of angel photos here:

Fringe Tech Ghost Hunting Store

You will find some unique ghost investigation items here, such as ghost boxes, IR flashlights, and IR-Vis-UV cameras.

Our IR converted cameras are a hit! Why? They are low-cost and people are getting results. I have received photos from three different users who have captured shadows, weird energy anomalies, and light balls and bars without the aid of a flash unit! To learn more, check out these pages:
