In the fall our thoughts turn towards Halloween, hauntings, and ghost stories. But why can't we think that way all the time? Haunted History Around the World does more than just tell ghost stories. Students will learn the history behind the location and the people involved in the supposed haunting. Each time this class is offered I will change the locations and topics covered. Although we will not delve too deep with the limited time available students will learn the finer points and a fun hunted story to go along with it. Students will have readings provided and links to more in-depth information on each location. Students will be expected to answer a discussion question at least once a week and reply to other students. Students do not have to believe in ghosts or the paranormal but respect for those who do is expected. I encourage a healthy dose of skepticism. Each student will be asked to share a haunted historical location that they are interested in. Students can confidently enroll for multiple sessions as the topics will change each time. There are tons of places to cover and they want to know them all. Also, we will discuss what it takes to be a Paranormal Investigator and the equipment they use.
Learning Goals
Students will learn a small bit about the history of each state discussed. They will learn how each state was formed and when it joined the Union. The state resources and top attractions will be discussed. Then we will look into the supposed hauntings in each state.T

Teacher expertise and credentials
As a history teacher, all the time and a paranormal investigator and location historical researcher in my free time makes me uniquely qualified to teach this class. It brings my career and one of my many hobbies together in a way like no other topic could. I am a firm believer that there is an answer out there to each bump and creek. We will either debunk it or maybe if we are lucky we will prove a haunting exists.
