Ghost and cemetery tours may have offer an alternative
QC Haunts & History Returning in the Fall?
QC Haunts & History's tours have been put on hold for the 2020 seasons. BUT, I am looking into some alternative things to offer.
The Halloween season is going to be a lot different this year, there's no way around it. I haven't heard the plans yet for the local haunted attractions, but I did learn that Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights has been cancelled at both theme parks this year. They were planning their 30th year celebration, too. Universal's Horror Nights is a huge event for the park and a major money-maker. When a professional haunt extravaganza like this keeps its scary doors shut for their big season, this is serious. Once I have some more information about ghost- and cemetery-tour season, I'll let you know! www.qchaunts.com |
TCC Facebook Group(7/29/20) Cemeteries are super cool. We've known this for years, but it seems the rest of the world is finally catching on.
It took us years to reach 10,000 members in our Facebook Group. We now have more than 18,700 members! And it only took the past 4 months. I'm not sure why the pandemic lockdown made people realize they wanted to know more abouot cemeteries or not. We're just happy we have so many new cemetery friends out there! Welcome to one and all!

What’s a taphophile? A love of cemeteries explained
That one time I went to Bonaventure Cemetery in Savannah, Ga., and ran into Captain Jack Sparrow.
My name is Minda, and I’m a taphophile. Unless you’re a taphophile, you probably don’t know what it is. But if you love visiting cemeteries, you probably are one.
I became a taphophile nearly twenty years ago when I started writing my first book Cemetery Walk. I can’t tell you how many cemeteries I visited in those early years – or since. There have been a lot. And there are always more to see! You may be thinking that this is a strange way to spend your time. “Normal” people don’t go to cemeteries unless they have to, right? Honestly, I couldn’t disagree more. You may be thinking that this is a strange way to spend your time. “Normal” people don’t go to cemeteries unless they have to, right?
