Ghost hunting with The Rise Guys Guys Greenville Army Navy Store 2011 evidence

It was late 2011… Halloween was approaching, and as usual I was getting swamped with inquiries about the Greenville Ghost Tour. A message arrives and it is from FatBoy… No no no… That is his name on the radio folks. So FatBoy is on a popular local radio show called The Rise Guys on 93.3 The Planet and tells me that they try and hunt ghosts every year. He was wondering if I could take them some place really haunted. Since I had to make some special arrangements I told I would get back to him and got to work.

I figured this would be the perfect time to try and schedule a block buster location to investigate. After looking over my options, I went and talked to my friends at Greenville Army Store since they have had some strange things happen. The Army Navy store downtown is one of Greenville South Carolinas’ oldest family run stores. Opened in 1946 by Harry Zaglin and still run to this very day by his son… Jeff. Over the years Jeff and his staff have come to trust the Greenville Ghost Tour enough to share their own haunted encounters in the store with me in my book: Haunted Greenville South Carolina, published 2011 The History Press

Once Jeff agreed to allow me to bring our guests in for this exclusive first time investigation, I let FatBoy know that I had a special ghost hunt planned for them. Here is the thing, I only told them that they were getting access to an exclusive investigation in one of the oldest business downtown. They had no idea where the location was until just a couple of days before the actual event… You can imagine their surprise when they found exactly where we were going.

Since we were in there for nearly two hours, the video below is just the highlights of what turned out to be a very eventful night. This is a full television show length video featuring the high points… but at 28 minutes long this mean you may should pause the video for 5 or 10 minutes before you attempt to watch it all the way through.

In the first part, we find ourselves in the basement… where something touches my “Geophone” vibration sensor while no one is near. Then several of our batteries drain. First in my camera, then in The Rise Guys voice recorder… From there we discover a strange EMF anomaly upstairs on the retail floor. Then later in the video we conduct a ghost box session (similar to a Franks box) where the spirits call out my name, then the names of several of The Rise Guys team. During this session, determine for yourself is the is the decease proprietor of the Army Store telling us “You don’t get it” …. “Come back next week”… “Get out…. we’re closed”…

Enjoy! Oh and if YOU haven’t been on the Greenville Ghost Tour yet… go ahead and order your tickets now!

Also go shopping at Greenville Army Navy Store right downtown and tell them Greenville Ghost Tour sent you in… just make sure you say to Harry too!

All NEW Scares for 2012… Haunted Pub Crawl & LATE Tour

Haunted Houses and Halloween Attractions for 2011 in Greenville, SC

—————————————————————————

Nightmare Dungeon, Upstates #1 Haunted house for 7 years!

Nightmare Dungeon Website

The Nightmare Dungeon is an old 2 story farm house walk thru attraction featuring many scares and dark tight places. Located on an old concrete companies property known as zupan sand, this attraction features a combination of dark tunnels and maze like rooms, digital sound and motivated actors, as well as fine detail and realism. We have added lots of new props, and made many changes for the 2012 season.

Second floor, scares never stop coming, filled with horror, terror, gore, screams,

Get on an old shaft elevator that takes you 300 feet underground to The Dungeon of Lost Souls, features a labyrinth of old cells, drafty halls and a series of human experiments that have gone horribly wrong. This show includes CGI special effects, illusions, great detail and amazing actors.

The Tunnel of Terror attraction takes you through a long underground tunnel underneath the grounds of the old zupan estate, this attraction is guaranteed to produce screams.

Where: 645 Old Anderson Rd Powdersville, SC 29611

Haunted Scream Park (large multi theme attraction)

On HWY 123 near Greenville Pickens Speedway going towards Easley, SC

Where: 3800 Calhoun Memorial Highway, Easley, SC 29640
On the same side of the road as the fairgrounds – look for the wrecked police car.

4 Screams in one: The Forbidden Forest, House of the Dead, Friday the 13th Haunted Maze, and the Evil Fortune Teller!

——————————————————————————————–

The Stanley Hotel Haunted House

What: The Stanley Hotel was the inspiration for Stephen King’s “The Shining” but what really happened there was too disturbing for the movie. The Stanley Hotel Haunted House doesn’t scare you in the ways you’re expecting – it’s more of a bone-chilling, mind-altering, scream-for-your-mama kind of experience. The creators of the Stanley Hotel Haunted House won Best of the Upstate last year for “Gallow Halls,” and they have upped the creepiness factor even more for this year.

Where: 245 North Main Street, Greenville, SC 29601
Next to Jersey Mike’s and the Beaded Frog, across Main from the Hyatt, near the intersection of Main Street and Beatty.

——————————————————————————————–

The Darkness Haunted Maze / Haunting On Haywood / Psycho Therapy

What: The Darkness Haunted Maze / Psycho Therapy is fear in its most elemental form – sensory fear. You will be begging them to turn on the lights. But be careful what you wish for. You get TWICE the fright for ONE ticket price! Mad patients roam the halls, evil doctors guard the doors, and there’s enough screaming to drive anyone insane!

Where: 555 Haywood Road, Greenville, SC 29607
In the Babies R Us shopping center, on the far left (in the old Steve & Barry’s location), above Halloween Express. Entrance is on the left side of the building.

Scene on 7 intrviews Jason Profit at haunted greenville store daly design

Leave a reply

Shortly after releasing a video of things moving around in a haunted store downtown, Jamarcus Gaston from News channel 7 WSPA wanted to talk to me at this popular store.

Daly Design is an amazingly eclectic boutique that is featured in my new book “Haunted Greenville SC” coming out later this year. One day I was walking by when the store was closed… there was no heat or air system on… yet these glass globes were moving around all by themselves in a very dramatic fashion.

I finally got around to releasing this footage because I thought it should be seen by the public. There really are strange things happening whether we want to admit it or not. Shortly thereafter, this was the feature that aired on WSPA’s Scene on 7.
