    ByJacob Rice February 24, 2013October 1, 2025

    Hi gang. It’s been ages since I wrote this article on ghost hunting team roles. While I don’t think much has changed, it’s always good to revisit a topic from time-to-time. So, let’s check out the different roles. By the way, I wouldn’t call these jobs because you usually don’t…

    A Field Guide To Ghost Hunting Outdoors

    ByJacob Rice February 23, 2013February 5, 2026

    Quick warning up front (Read this first) Outdoor ghost hunting is harder than investigating a building. Period. There are more variables outside. Wind. Animals. Water. Bugs. Distant traffic. People talking a quarter-mile away. Even your own footsteps can sound like something following you. That’s why outdoor investigations have a lower…

    Ghost Hunting in Abandoned Buildings

    ByJacob Rice February 22, 2013March 21, 2024

    People love abandoned buildings, especially those with a tragic past. We like them because they look the part of a haunted location. Neglect and our romantic ideas of ghostly activities begin. Old buildings are perfect for residual hauntings.

    Not all cemeteries and graveyards are haunted but, in many cases, a soul still lingers for one reason or another. Beginner ghost hunters should pack up their gear and head to a cemetery for a perfect training experience. Get the scoop after the jump.

    Ghost Hunting Conclusion: Congress Plaza Hotel

    ByJacob Rice February 16, 2013April 7, 2025

    Image: Congress Plaza Hotel lobby, Chicago, Feb. 14, 2013. Update on 11/2/2013 – I accessed the Chicago Tribune archives to check on these spirits. Not every name was correct, but the events surrounding their deaths seem reasonable. I’ll add the event next to the spirits name. These events did happen,…

    Ghost Hunt: Congress Plaza Hotel Part 5

    ByJacob Rice February 16, 2013April 7, 2025

    Image: Stairwell between the 7th and 8th floors of the north tower. The north tower had some interesting readings, especially on the 8th floor. It oozed high EMF levels. All readings hovered around 1.5 mG and we had spikes as high as 64 mG on the Mel Meter. Now, we…

    Ghost Hunt: Congress Plaza Hotel Part 4

    Ghost Hunt: Congress Plaza Hotel Part 3

    ByJacob Rice February 16, 2013April 7, 2025

    Room 441 was the next to last stop in the south tower. This room is notorious for ghostly activity. It is the room with the most calls to security. There is reportedly a female shadow person, who stands at the foot of the bed. The spirit(s) may also move your…

    Ghost Hunt: Congress Plaza Hotel Part 2

    ByJacob Rice February 16, 2013April 7, 2025

    Earlier in the night, we had the chance to interview a security guard in the Gold Room. How long have you worked at the hotel? More than 17 years. Have you experienced any ghostly activities during this time? No, I haven’t. But, a few of the rehab contractors and other…
