Back around the 13th of this month, you may have noticed me tweeting about going on a ghost hunt in Southern California. I never had a chance to explain what that was all about, so I received a lot of “WTF are you talking about?!” responses. My friend George Ruiz decided (apparently with the help of the Bui Brothers, who weren’t able to join us) to get together a bunch of bloggers and web video friends together for a trip to a “haunted” house. Now, I love ghost stories (even if I hate horror movies) and I’ve always wanted to check out a place that was supposedly haunted.

With the help of Team FISCH, a group of ghost hunters and paranormal experts, we went into the house in small groups (there were probably 30 of us all together). While I wasn’t on his team, Sean Bonner definitely had the best ghost hunting kit. My group was only equipped with video cameras and the gizmos that FISCH allowed us to hold. Here’s the video I took of my team’s trip inside:

And here are some photos:

You can also listen to some of the EVPs recorded on our run on Team FISCH’s Ning page, using the audio player at the bottom left of the page, and see all the tweets we posted during the evening. Now, while we didn’t see anything, there were points where I definitely felt the room get colder, and the hair on my arms stood straight up! I guess you can call me “ghost agnostic.” No matter what you believe, it was a lot of fun!

Thanks to Sasha Friedenberg for editing together my totally spooky video.
