This past Saturday, I was thrilled to watch an actual ghost hunt! Wow!
The event was hosted by Oconee County Tourism and the investigating team was none other than ‘Ghosts of Athens Paranormal Investigations’ www.ghostsofgeorgia.org
Joining the investigation team was Joann Johnson Hubert, historian for the Eagle Tavern and Tracy L. Adkins , author of the best seller ‘Ghosts of Athens’ and the follow up book ‘Ghosts of Athens and Beyond’
Documenting the event was Chris Greer. Chris is an Emmy nominated dir., host of ‘View Finders’ featured on Georgia Public Broadcasting.
What a great team for this ghost hunt!
Did we experience anything?
YES!!! Things crashed in the house, weird sounds and what could be described as a physical attack.
We’ll be taping me hosting the program later next month.
Stay tuned! This. Is. Gonna. Be. Wild!!
