We chose the adult topic late night - Beyond Bizarre tour with wishes of murder, suicide, and gory stories around Portland.
The evening started over dinner @ Old Town Pizza.
We enjoyed delicious pizza and beer to get warmed up before facing the elements. Here Daphne, Chris and Jason enjoy a spinich, pesto, and feta pizza with pine nuts (not picture Mike, Karly, Greg and I):
Our tour began with a walk through Chinatown (aka Japantown) to catch the max as she explained different types of paranormal activity. I believe the guide said there were seven different types. A few I can remember of the top of my head are....
- Haunting - a spirit stays in a certain place (where they resided or died as a living person).
- Object Possession - personal belonging still connected death.
- Demonic possession - i.e. the exercist.
- Poltergeist - not a typical house haunting, rather a psychokinetic energy.
On the MAX trip Greg decided to test our our heavy duty EMF detectors:
Our first destination for ghost hunting was the White Eagle Cafe, haunted by the supposed lovers Rose and Sam (a murder suicide). Despite our best attempts, the only ghostly hauntings we encountered were man-made...we can thank Greg for that.
The final destination was Old Town Pizza (where we had begun). Said to be lurking in the basement is a converted street walker named Nina who died under suspicious circumstances. Check out Old Town's site for more information on her story.
All-in-all the good company made the night worth it, but the tour left much to be desired.
