Ripley’s Believe it or Not! & Guinness World Records Museum Tour
Ripley’s Believe it or Not! Hollywood, CA
Inside the museum, 300 exhibits are spread across two floors and 15 galleries. When the Hollywood landmark was overhauled in 2012, some of the most gruesome exhibits were removed to make the experience more family-friendly. You’ll still find plenty of oddities here, though. Highlights include a vampire-killing kit, interactive musical stairs, Marilyn Monroe memorabilia, and a moving automaton of the world’s tallest man.
A few years after my visits to Ripley’s in Hollywood, CA I see that Ghost Adventures did an investigation there. Employees of the museum have claimed to be “adversely affected by its rare artifacts.”
I did capture an orb sweep across me while I was on the dance floor near the end of the video visit. I did use my paraspectrum camera and an infrared effect on camera phone a few times while in Ripley’s.
My footage is from April 2013 and April 2014
But first in this video I will showcase my going to the Guinness World of Records Museum Hollywood, CA
As stated on a web site: “Guinness is all about the fastest, tallest, biggest, fattest and other superlatives.”
I could have spent time reading the postings for each exhibit but the layout and lackluster displays inspired enough interest in me to just glance through the place.
It is only the first 3 minutes of this video episode.
Filmed in April 2014.

Grauman’s Chinese Theater Tour 2013 My Haunted Diary
Grauman's is the last remaining deluxe movie palace from the 1920s. There are also a couple ghosts that are believed to haunt the backstage area of the theater. One is referred to as Fritz. It’s said that he was a stagehand who hanged himself behind the screen at some point in the past. Another ghost, known as Annabelle, is described as a young girl. Some believe that the ghosts are responsible for the unexplained movements of the stage curtain seen by some visitors.
Theater patrons and employees have heard strange sounds, felt cold spots and have the feeling of being watched. There have also been reports of flickering lights and unidentifiable noises in the employees’ locker room.
This footage was from back in April 2013 which I filmed with my phone camera. You may notice flying debris caught by
my phone camera during the tour inside the theater-building. A combination of bugs, dust, and ?

Hollywood Historic Hotel 2014 My Haunted Diary
Back in April of 2014 while in town for work and doing investigations in Los Angeles, California I spent 3 nights at the Hollywood Historic Hotel. Though I did not spend a lot of time there I still managed to film some and recorded 2 nights in my hotel room with a static camera.
Some interesting audio captures and visual anomalies.
Original called Melrose Arms, then Melrose Hotel, then Monte Cristo Island Apartments before the name it is today.
Built in 1927 by S. Charles Lee, nestled in the heart of filmland, down the road from Paramount Film Studios. I can’t say for sure this place is haunted but with the traffic of housing endless amount of people through Hollywood entertainment history I would expect it has its share of mystery. Here is my account from my time there.

Disturbing Halloween Cursed Video
A Halloween Nightmare
Warning: This video is a compilation of footage from existing films
along with some still photos and footage of my own.
However, the theme here is about Curses so perhaps
do not watch it. The images and music are of a disturbing
nature. None the less, I am sure you will be able to pick
out which films I used here. Happy Halloween.

My Haunted Diary Update & Never Seen Clip Collage
I show a collage of clips spanning over the years starting with an excerpt from one I found back in 2007 that I had submitted for audition for the Ghost Hunters show on SyFy when they were looking for a new team member or two for the cast. You will next see my on Fox News followed by several other clips over the years.
I speak about my starting a channel on Rumble platform where I already started uploaded old videos before the time I started the My Haunted Diary series. I will continue editing together stuff from the archives for Rumble. I will also put videos up on youtube again to feel it out.

Amityville Haunted Horror House drive by September 2013 Scary
From the video archives
I live in Long Island and not far from the famous Amityville home where Robert Defeo brutally murdered his family. and.. later the Lutz Family experienced residual haunting and possession. The famous couple Ed & Lorraine Warren helped that family during their paranormal episodes.
I decided to do a drive by and film with my smart phone since my distant friends always want to see how it looks today. However, the current owners were outside when I came up cutting my drive by visit a bit short.
Upon review of the film I took with my phone I was shocked to find what I did!
