Welcome To World Haunted

The world of the paranormal has fascinated people for centuries. Ghosts have been the subject of debate for years and through this blog, we hope to continue the discussion. We will have a number of contributors writing a multitude of different things including their own personal experiences with ghosts, analysis of haunted locations around the world and much much more. We aim to create a community not only here on the blog but also on social media such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.

The idea for this blog came about through the pre-existing work on our sister site World Abandoned. Many of the comments we received were about the haunted stories surrounding abandoned buildings and that interest is what sparked the idea to create something to focus on the paranormal side of such buildings. That idea has grown to become World Haunted.

Interest in the paranormal goes back for centuries and the question of what happens after we die has always garnered debate. By the 19th century, scientists began to investigate using a number of methods. Many of the experiments were carried out on areas of religious belief. They tried to prove the existence of ghosts and spirits and whether certain people can communicate with them. Since the Victorian era, the number of paranormal investigators has grown and groups now exist around the world. The advances in technology have given rise to new tools to aid in ghost hunting.

The interest in ghosts has risen spectacularly in recent years due to television programmes like Most Haunted and Ghost Hunters. Websites and forums have sprung up on the internet and now World Haunted takes its place among them.

We hope that you will follow us and return frequently. Interact, join in the debate and spread the word.
