Real Ghost Hunts, Haunted Locations and Paranormal Adventures Across the UK
Welcome to the Ghost Hunter Diaries.
I’m Catherine Green, paranormal author, ghost hunter, and creator of SpookyMrsGreen. For more than fifteen years I have explored haunted locations across England, Wales, and Scotland, investigating reports of paranormal activity and documenting my experiences along the way.
Today my daughters often join me on investigations, making Ghost Hunter Diaries a unique record of family ghost hunting adventures, haunted location reviews, paranormal events, and supernatural curiosities.
Whether you are an experienced investigator, a curious beginner, or simply love a good ghost story, you’re welcome to join us.
