Important News:
My pages are now mirrored at my tripod page. Geocities has a hair up it's butt about not being able to link to other sites, so there's no telling when they are going to try to shut this one down again because I have links to other pages! (how dumb, eh?) I'm also updating the other pages more often, so you may just want to trek over there anyway.. :) Sorry about the inconvenience, but everything that is here, is over there too...
Also please check out my forums on invisionfree! All pagans and open minded people are welcome! Pagan Alliance Forums Created by myself and a few of my youtube buddies!

FUTHARK.com Well designed and well-informed web page. Worth a look!
Gabriella's Homepage Little bit of everything Asatru/Runes etc. Very graphically oriented, may want to skip it if your computer internet connection is slow.
As opposed to the 'haunted house' listings that appear around halloween advertising their scary adventures. I've had some strange encounters before in a few places I have worked, the first being the grocery store I worked at in a small town in rural Illinois, and the second, and more obvious one, is when I worked my first CNA job at a Nursing home in a different rural Central IL town. I'm still pretty skeptical to a lot of stuff, but I know what happened to me was real. I'm not scared of ghosties, though. Ghosts are really nothing to be frightened of. I've seen plenty of those "out of the corner of the eye" shadowy kind of 'people', but it was never about anything 'scary'. Anyhoo, check out some of these sights, and draw your own conclusions.
Check out the Troy Taylor links!
Troy Taylor's Haunted Decatur, IL! Troy Taylor is a pretty cool guy, he replied to my e-mail when I wrote him telling him about my ghostly accounts when I worked at the nursing home. He just wrote back (not a form letter, I was really impressed!) saying he enjoyed my "eerie" stories, and that he himself had encountered many hospitals and nursing homes that were indeed haunted, but unfortunately, because of patient confidentiality, and the fact these institutions do not want that kind of publicity, he has to be very vague when writing about them. Mr. Taylor has written many books about the haunted midwest, and on his site he has photos of his various investigations. If you're in the area, he also has tours and overnight excursions of haunted places. He seems like a really down to earth guy. He and his wife Amy run the Whitechapel Press, located in Decatur, IL. Check the listings on his main page (next link)..
Troy Taylor's prairieghosts.comPersonal Note: I recently got the chance to go on Troy Taylor's "Haunted Decatur" extended four-hour tour. I must say it was very professionally done, very informative, and very interesting. Not to mention, I believe that the Lincoln Theater, currently closed to the general public, is indeed haunted. I experienced seeing those 'shadow people' out of the corner of my eye there. Cameras are allowed on the tours, and generally run from April to October, check his site for details. So cheers to Troy and his crew, I will definately try to go on another tour again, and this time I will bring a camera!
Haunted Indiana.com Has a few of those halloween haunted house listings, but it also has some decent links and information for the ghost-hunter-types.
The Shadowlands.net Interesting site! Full of local lore from across the USA, and they invite submissions!
Horrorfind.com is a search engine, it's got a few good things on there, but most of it is of the halloween variety.
MY PERSONAL TALES of the two haunted places I have worked. No actual investigations have been done at these two places. Also, eerie stuff involving my family. (All links now working.)

Official page of the G.E.R.T.! One of my strange sites I made up in college. I was responsible for bringing a lot of crap onto the web back in the mid-to-late 90's. ROFL
Neopets.com great time waster lol. All too addictive..
Rathergood.com I love those crazy viking kittens! Check out "We Like The Moon"! It's those crazy critters from that Quizno's commercials.
THE homepage of Webster Hubbell's Lower Lip! It's another stupid site I made in college, you may have heard of it, I made it into the now-defunct magazine Internet Underground. (r.i.p.) Yes, I am the deranged politically non-partisan woman known as Halfelf. I also made it into the Useless Web Pages once upon a time with the Shrine of Webster Hubbell's Lower Lip!
