Planning Your Haunted Location Tour And Vacation: Ideas For You
When you are a major fan of horror films and the paranormal, you may find yourself looking to travel the country in search of truly haunted locations. While this may be a dream of yours, you may not know where to begin when planning out your trip and getting the details taken care of. Get to know some of the steps that you can and should take when you are planning your vacation tour of haunted locations throughout the United States so that you can have the most enjoyable trip possible.
Plan Your Route Strategically
You want to make sure that your trip takes a logical path across the country when you are looking to plan your trip. The first step to take is to make yourself a list of all of the haunted houses, hotels, and other sites you want to visit on your journey.
Once you have your finalized list, you can plan the order in which you will visit them. Logically, you will want to start with the locations that are furthest away from your home, and then work your way back across the country
However, if you are centrally-located in the Midwest, you may want to make more of a loop across the nation by heading first north and west, then when you get to the westernmost point, begin looping south and east heading to the furthest point east. Then, you head back north and west until you arrive back home.
Bring the Appropriate Gear
If you really want to get the full haunting experience, you will want to bring gear to help you capture any moments in which you feel the supernatural. The basic gear that you will need includes an audio recorder (preferably analog like a cassette recorder, but digital may work as well), a video camera (with night vision), a quality still-photography camera, and flashlights.
Other gear that you may want to bring, if you can find them, are a few EMF (electromagnetic frequency) readers and a digital local thermometer. These items will help to better detect ghostly presences as ghosts are said to emit EMF when they are present and can cause cold spots where they are located at any given moment.
If You Are Headed To Haunted Hotels, Book Your Stay There
Touring a haunted location in the light of day can still give you the haunting experience you are looking for. However, if some of the locations you plan to explore are hotels, then you may benefit more from booking a stay in the haunted location.
Then, you can get the real, after-hours experience that increases your chances of experiencing a real haunting event. Plan your trip accordingly so that you can stay in a haunted hotel at nearly every overnight stop to make the most out of your trip.
Now that you know a few of the ways to better plan your haunted locations tour and vacation, you can get started as soon as possible.
