I would also like to thank his demon kitten for providing the proper haunted atmosphere at my defense. • I thank Dr. Neill Matheson for the ghostly inspiration of his Gothic Literature class and for helping me return to the program. • I thank Dr. Tim Richardson for using his class to teach us how to write a conference proposal and deliver a conference paper – knowledge I have put to good use! • I thank my high school senior English teacher, Dr. Nancy Myers.

In transform EVP, noise from which voice is formed is essentially the same kind of random energy, but it is expressed in the plasma or a transistor junction via stochastic resonance.

Carlin Follow this and additional works at: https://thekeep.eiu.edu/honors_theses Part of the Television Commons A Haunted Genre: A Study of Ghost Hunting Reality Television (TITLE) BY Abigail L. Carlin UNDERGRADUATE THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF UNDERGRADUATE DEPARTMENTAL HONORS DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH, ALONG WITH THE HONORS COLLEGE, EASTERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY CHARLESTON, ILLINOIS 2018 YEAR I HEREBY RECOMMEND THIS UNDERGRADUATE THESIS BE ACCEPTED AS FULFILLING THE THESIS REQUIREMENT FOR UNDERGRADUATE DEPARTMENTAL HONORS DATE 'fHESISADVISOR DATE H6NORS COORDINATOR Carlin 2 Introduction to Thesis In a recent interview on CONAN, the Chicago comedian Kyle Kinane shared his opinion regarding the relationship between white privilege and the existence of ghosts. Kinane joked that he thinks "the only people who believe in poltergeists are people who don't have any real-world problems," and following that statement, he states that believing in ghosts and engaging in paranormal culture is stereotypically "white" (0:39-1:20). The parallel drawn between daily life andthe topic of race is referredto as privilege, and Kinane insinuates that white privilege leaves an individual with a significant amount of free time and resources to engage in seemingly illogical beliefs, such as ghosts; however, ghost hunting reality television lends itself to more thanboredom, as it is a new and exciting genre specific to the 21st century. In this thesis, ghost hunting reality television is explored and recognized as a cultural artifact. Born from the combination of secular methodology, religion, and technology, an unlikely and obscure genre explodes from obscurity to popular culture to such a degree that tier one celebrities, such as Post Malone, guest star on longstanding ghost hunting reality show Ghost Adventures (2008-present).

Peter Buse and Andrew Scott, Ghosts: Deconstruction, Psychoanalysis, History, p. 2 You know the stories: the building constructed above an Indian burial ground plagued by desecrated spirits, the historic plantation, preserved yet spiritually unrested because of the horrors it knows, soldiers haunting formerly bloodied battlefields who might never know peace. Their lingering has meaning: the ghost collapses time and history into a traversable, nearly tangible, fantastical continuum that begs exploration. The ghost is an entity capable of moving through life and death, reality and fantasy, past and present, providing a fragmented yet panoramic version of how things happened. Precisely because ghosts have this mobility, they should be considered an important part of American history and history making. Their sometimes-invisible though eerily tangible presence in life and literature beckons inquiry into the more repressed and obscure facets of social and historical life, which are difficult to discuss and impossible to understand without this unique flexibility.

  • Ghosts on the Coast Halloween Package-2008-09
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Marti Mayne, 207-846-6331, [email protected] SLEEP WITH A GHOST ON THE COAST THIS HALLOWEEN Haunted Historic Inns of Rockland guarantee that you’ll sleep with a ghost on the coast Rockland, ME – For those in search of spirited Halloween getaways and “ boo tiful” inns, Historic Inns of Rockland have obliged with a package that virtually guarantees guests will sleep with a ghost at each of their premier inns. Stay at the Captain Lindsey House, Berry Manor Inn or LimeRock Inn on Halloween, October 31, 2008 and you’ll be in for a hauntingly good time. Each couple booking the Ghost on the Coast Package will receive a pair of night shirts, with one side emblazoned with a ghost and the other side reading “I slept with a ghost on the Coast of Maine”. Unless they choose not to wear it, guests can claim with virtual certainty that they’ve slept with a ghost in Maine. Since a variety of friendly apparitions and unexplainable occurrences have happened at all three inns, it’s entirely possible that even without the night shirt, those who choose to believe may have more than one chance to experience a ghost. Even Today Show’s Travel Editor Peter Greenberg has experienced these New England spirits, as he revealed ghostly antics from Historic Inns of Rockland in his annual haunted hotels round-up in 2006. The Historic Inns of Rockland’s Ghost on the Coast package includes: • One night’s lodging at your choice of the three Historic Inns of Rockland, Berry Manor Inn, LimeRock Inn and Captain Lindsey House.

  • Paradores De Turismo
    Culture & History ghost stories - haunted hotel - historic hotel - luxury hotel chain - Parador Cardona - Parador Jaén - Parador Olite - spirits - spooky Spain Spooky Spain: Paradores’ Haunted Hotels Saturday, 16 November, 2013 Paradores Parador de Cardona Parador de Jaén Parador de Olite Part of the thrill of staying in a historic hotel is thinking about all of the people who have stayed there throughout the centuries…and those who may still be lurking about! Some of Paradores’ luxury hotels in Spain are said to be haunted, and with such rich history and comfortable accommodation, it’s no wonder that some ghostly guests have decided never to leave! Thumps in the Andalusian night Parador Jaén is located in an 18th century Arab fortress overlooking the rustic Andalusian landscape, and its distinctive decorations and fantastic dining room – with local favourites like ajoblanco, a chilled almond and garlic soup, and partridge salad– aren’t the only things that make this Parador unique. Parador Jaén According to records, a guest in the castle’s Room 22 claimed to have been awakened in the middle of the night by dull thuds upon the door and a woman’s cry. In 1984, a team of paranormal psychiatrists was called in to investigate, and they concluded that this wasn’t just another ghost story – the room was, in fact, haunted by the spirit of a young woman who had died of heartbreak there several centuries ago. Room 22 isn’t the only spooky spot in this haunted hotel. The castle is also said to be home to the spirit of a prisoner nicknamed Terrible Lagarto, or Terrible Lizard, who died of hunger long ago while locked up within the fortress.
