GHOSTMAP

The Baghdad Theater located at 3702 SE Hawthorne in Portland, Oregon is this weeks haunted location. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Baghdad theater is one of the many Arabian knights style theaters that were built in the late 1920s after fantasy classics like Douglas Fairbanks  Thief of Baghdad. This particular theater is actually pretty good size seating over 700 people in its auditorium and large balcony.

Usually for a location to be worthy of being called the haunted location of the week it would have to have many active spirits within it but the Baghdad theater actually only has one. The poor soul who haunts this location is actually a bit loony and is a little much to handle for first-time hunters.

Apparently during his live he was a theater worker who had felt betrayed in love after finding his new wife in bed with a relative of his and being distraught he actually committed suicide behind the screen of the theater. Ever since he’s decided to stay at the only place he felt happy which was the theater. As far as haunting goes he mostly seems to bother young couples who break the theater’s rules or the little far with the public displays of affection.

Before visiting the Baghdad theater with ghost hunting on your mind please be sure to seek permission from the theater owners and as always any ghost hunting is done at your own risk.

The BBC News website recently posted a news report about Russian boxing champion Nikolai Valuev’s hunting for the Siberian Yeti. The onetime World Boxing Association champion who’s nicknamed the “Beast from the East” and is seven feet tall, weighing in at 322 pounds! Nevertheless, boxing is taking a backseat to his interest in the most recent “Siberian Snowman” sightings. Nikolai Valuev will only be taking part in an abominable snowman expedition for two days, but isn’t anticipating being immediately wow’d, he says “ I doubt whether the yeti is going to run into the road and greet our truck with open arms.”

Evidently these Russian abominable snowman sightings are not merely varied accounts amidst the locals, but specific and oftentimes adequate enough that a Yeti institute and international conference are presently in the works. Perhaps Valuev is simply searching for an opponent near his own size and strength?

Have you ever had a dream even understand? Were you convinced there was a message from the great beyond? Chances are, at some point your dream probably was a message from a dear departed loved one.

You see most spirits tend to communicate only in visual clues such as objects and letters. We have to then sort out exactly what they’re trying to say, it’s sort of a ghost language if you will. Anybody, even those completely lacking psychic ability can receive a message from the great beyond but only those with an actual gift can decipher exactly what is meant.

Sure many times spirits choose to reveal themselves to a psychic almost as if corporeal however more often than not they lacked the energy required for such an act so they correspond via dreams and visions.

As a way of connecting to some of my readers I’ve decided that if anyone is interested I will help them to interpret their dreams and also help them deduce if it’s a message or just their own mind dealing with something. This is something I want to do to help out so as always my services will be 100% free of charge. You can either post in the comments section below or send me an e-mail at Dream@ghostmap.info

I will answer every comment or e-mail so feel free to go ahead and tell me your dream at your convenience.

Good news paranormal television fans! Syfy has renewed documentary television series Paranormal Witness for a 2nd season with a 12-episode order scheduled to premiere in August of 2012. Paranormal Witness, is produced by Raw TV (Gold Rush Alaska), and it re-creates the real real accounts of people who have went through paranormal experiences that defy scientific explanation. In its 1st season, which premiered on SyFy back on September 7, 2011 Paranormal Witness averaged 990,000 adults 18-49 and 1.7 million total viewers. It ranked as the No. 7 new original cable series in the fourth quarter among adults 18-49. It’s pick up is good news for the entire paranormal community because with it’s success a few other similar television shows are now in the developmental stages.

Susan Boyle has come out and admitted that she believes her home is haunted by the spirit of her late mother and insists that she’s encountered her at least once since she passed away 4 years ago.
The Scottish star, who became an overnight music sensation after appearing on Britain’s Got Talent in 2009, was devoted to her mother Bridget and was devastated when she passed away at the age of 91, back in 2007.

In fact it was Mrs. Boyle who had inspired her daughter to try out for the television program and the vocalist has frequently spoken of how she wanted to dedicate her success to her dearly departed mother.

Now she’s insisted that she encounters her mother’s ghost in the former council house they shared in Blackburn, West Lothian.

When asked about her paranormal which grants Boyle say’s“The council house is my mother’s house. Her energy is still there. It’s my comfort zone. My mother said, ‘look after my house and look after my cat Pebbles’, and that’s what I did. I’ve actually seen my mother in the house. She wasn’t troubled. I think she was letting me know she was all right. There was a lovely smell. Perhaps it was her perfume, I’m not sure.”

She added: “I used to think she’d abandoned me when she died. Maybe she was telling me she hadn’t.”

Susan Boyle who is now 50 years old, has moved back into the former family home she shared with her brothers and sister from a bigger more modern home she had purchased nearby after feeling uncomfortable and lonely.

Bridget’s death in 2007 for time had deeply affected Susan who stopped singing as she was so grief-stricken. Eventually however, Susan remembered how much faith her mother had in her, and decided to give professional singing one last attempt.

I have known idea if her home is actually haunted, but I do know that holding onto someone dear to us can prevent them from completely crossing over. Perhaps that is what has happened here. In this case if her spirit truly is inside the home I see no harm in it, in fact it may be just what a lonely old woman needed to have faith in herself and leave her mark

I actually was right about a lot of them last year (Read them here) so I decided after a few readers emailed me asking me to do it again then I would meditate and go ahead and post 10 predictions of what I see possibly happening in 2012.

1) Gas prices will fall and the United States national average will be around $2.50 per gallon by the end of 2012.

2) There will be a major tragedy possibly terrorist related taking place in Chicago, Illinois resulting in many deaths.

3) The United States will have a new president.

4) California will suffer a series of massive earthquakes and the damage will actually spread from Sacramento all the way to Los Angeles. There will even be forest fires as the result of lava rising up from deep within the earth.

5) China will have a coup d’état involving their military and a new leader will take over the country.

6) Vladimir Putin will be assassinated by the Russian mafia

7) The state of Oregon and possibly Washington will be hit with a tidal wave or possibly tsunami resulting in massive casualties and flooding.

8.) A major pharmaceutical company will be the center of a major scandal involving bribery, payoffs and rigged trials.

9) Airport photo x-ray scanners will go away as a result of a nude photograph of a major celebrity being taken with one and shared on the Internet.

10) The world will not end December  21st 2012.

Lady Gaga isn’t just recording music these days she’s also ghost hunting. Turns out that the popular musician believes that some malevolent spirits are vexing her and she purchased over $5000 worth of ghost hunting equipment to get some answers.

Her aides apparently have to do a spirit seeking sweep prior to her shows while on tour to seek out any spirits that may be lurking in the arena before she takes the stage.

Lady Gaga isn’t the first celebrity to come forward and state they believe they are haunted by spirits other celebrities including actors Nicholas Cage, Keanu Reeves, Neve Campbell, Jean Claude Van Damme and singers Sting, Bryan Adams, Belinda Carlisle, Liam Gallagher and Paul McCartney just in a few have all reportedly claimed to have ghostly encounters.

If Lady Gaga is in need of any assistance or guidance in regards to spirit removal or communication when she visits Phoenix, Arizona I would gladly offer my services.
