Meeting Henry absolutely made our day. It was an honor to talk to our favorite little GRAGGonite and take this picture with him!

​Travis was recently interviewed for an article for Hopes and Fears website questioning the ways in which ghosts communicate with us. The GRAGG Team was questioned as part of a panel of experts including Literary Professor, Dr. Luke Thurston of Aberystwyth University in Wales, a spirit medium, and founder of Hart D. Fisher's American Horrors (where you can watch episodes of Mission Terror every week) Hart Fisher. Check out the article.

The main event for the Summer Tour of 2015 was our investigation of the Alexian Brothers Novitiate in Gresham, WI. This location was originally built as a mansion for a woman and her disabled child and was later used as a novitiate in the 1950s. At one point during its history, the building was held hostage by a group of Native Americans for over a month. Now the abandoned shell of this amazing location sits next to a beautiful river and waterfall. Truly one of the most breathtaking locations we've ever visited. We're especially excited for the two episodes we filmed on this year's tour including the Ed Gein sites and this beautiful building. We're also happy we were not killed by a bear or wolf pack that are known to be in this area during our 1 am hike through the woods back to investigate!

7/1/2015

One of our major stops was for our episode profiling the infamous serial killer Ed Gein and the town of Plainfield. Filming this episode was one of the coolest experiences we've had! You always hear us say how we feel like we're in a Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie. Well, here we actually were! It's not very often you can call out the ghost of Ed Gein in the place he lived!

6/28/2015

We've returned from the GRAGG Tour of 2015! We visited 11 Wisconsin locations, filmed 2 episodes, slept about 3 hours a night, and had the time of our lives! Here are a couple pictures from our stop at one of Wisconsin's most famous haunted sites, Maribel Caves Hotel aka "Hotel Hell"!
