Intuition is the whisper of the soul.” - Jiddu Krishnamurti.
Making the most of the COVID 19 downtime. Verna Kowertz took the opportunity to update The Ghost Tales of Weston, adding new photos and stories. She also launched a new career as a romance author. The first in a series, titled Apricot Jam, will soon be followed by 3 additional books.
Reconnecting with Verna, I wanted her to share a very important element of her personal story, the part about being diagnosed with cancer in 1995 and being told the survival rate was 1 in 8. Little did she know - ghosts were about to take center stage, starting with a haunted desk.
On that note, there is a unique audio quirk in this interview, one that I edited out of the previous version. Refusing to play second fiddle to a romance novel or my editorial oversight, the interloper opted to grandstand and waited until the entire segment was completed to play a prank.
I saved the work in progress more than once - my failsafe. Project completed and ready for the final save - the screen went blank - computer shut down - battery died - and there went the audio. Even so, the file should have been retrievable.
Nope. It was corrupted. Dagnabbit!!!
TAKE 2. I left the little ghostie in. Can't prove it is an EVP. Why is it odd? Nothing else in the audio matches this anomaly. The garbled bits of word salad coincidentally appear when the topic of discussion is The Saint George Hotel visitors seeing something unexplainable in their room overnight. Apparently, the interloper had an opinion on that. I can't decipher it.
It is what it is -- this audio file was not hijacked and corrupted. Thank you.

Better than a billboard. One of the Weston ghosts provided a cameo and earned a mention on local news. "Hotel manager Bob Menninger said the photograph was taken from room 302, which is a popular room for many tourists hoping to see something paranormal for Halloween." What appears to be a foggy mist can be seen in the window. Some also see a face. Is it a ghost? Link.

FYI
Main Street Galleria building has a new tenant and a new restaurant - time will tell what stories the current occupants will deliver.
2023 Ghost Tales returned to the original site: Weston Cafe.

Thank you to Verna for including a bit about me (and Andy) on page 43. The Ghost Tales of Weston
