Haunted Weekends - An Extraordinary Group Outing

Planning a group weekend away? What would they think about haunted weekends?

If it's your turn to plan an outing for a group of friends, why not aim for stepping outside of the every day group outing. Forget bowling, the movies, or a game of charades. How about looking into haunted weekends, instead?

What kind of weekend?

There's an increasing level of popularity and interest in pursuing the paranormal. If you've watched any shows on TV, you'll know that there are experts and ghost chasers who dedicate time to following the unexplained.

If your friends love sitting around telling ghost stories round a campfire, maybe they'd be intrigued with the prospect of:

* Touring a haunted castle or pub
* Having a seance
* Ghost hunting

Haunted weekends can be great fun. Talk about an adrenaline rush! These aren't about smoke and mirrors or simply scaring you with ghost stories.

Many events put on throughout the UK are done with the serious intention of investigating areas that have been known for paranormal activities and ghost sightings. Go along for the ride...you never know what might happen.

If you're setting one of these outings up, here are some tips for you:

* Don't organise an event like this in secret when doing it for a group. You really have no way whatsoever of knowing whether or not all of your friends will want to partake in this sort of event so it's a good idea to be up front about the type of weekend you're planning.

* Organise the weekend with an experienced event planner who specialises in paranormal events. That way, you'll be sure the experience will be an intriguing one, handled by someone who knows how to increase the chances of these types of outings being a success.

* Make it safe. Go prepared. Have cameras, changes of clothing, snacks and water, and a first aid kit.

* Make it an alcohol-free event. Most paranormal weekend event companies make this a requirement for safety purposes

What can you expect on such a weekend?

Different events can be happening and you may want to plan based around a specific event that sounds perfect for your group. Many of these outings are planned with psychic mediums in attendance and could even be filmed as well.

Many mediums use technology to help them discover the secrets and the truths behind legends. Mightn't it be interesting to witness this and see what happens?

Most outings are planned for small groups, which are always supervised. As you learn about the area you're investigating, you may even get to use paranormal detection equipment yourself.

There is definitely no shortage of people interested in the paranormal and if you and your group thrives on the thrilling and chilling, you'll most likely start making haunted weekends a regular group outing.
