Dear Ghostvillagers,

Welcome to Ghostvillage.com Version 2.0! Some very big changes have recently taken place. The good news is that we have grown, and to accommodate the growth, we have upgraded our servers and redone our entire site!

Here are the highlights:

Free Ghost Mail: Now you can have free Ghostvillage.com email for life!  Imagine, yourname@ghostvillage.com.  Sign up at http://www.ghostvillage.com/gmail.htm. Check your email anytime from Ghostvillage.com.

Ghostvillage.com Town Square: The Town Square holds all-new threaded message boards. You do not need to register to use the new message boards--you may view and post messages as a guest. But if you do register, you will have features available to you such as instant messaging to other registered users, the message boards will notify you of new messages and replies to your posts, and you can set email notifications on specific topics.

I’m really excited about these new message boards. They are very impressive and took a lot of effort to implement. The only way to make the new Town Square a success is if YOU use them regularly. Start some discussions, give your theories and opinions… remember, this is YOUR community.  Ghostvillage.com is now seeking suggestions for new topics and moderators to ensure the success of those new topics.

Note: We have manually moved many of the old posts from the old “forum” to the new message boards so you can continue your discussions. If you see something missing, feel free to re-post your message.

Ghost Chat: The all new Ghost Chat can be found in the Town Square section. We have purchased the Volano Chat software, which is one of the best chat applications available. Click on “Ghost Chat Now” from within the Town Square, enter any nickname you wish, and begin chatting.  Ghostvillage.com is still seeking volunteers to organize and lead regular chats or special chat discussions.  Regular Ghost Chats take place Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 9 P.M. E.S.T.

Ghost Search: Ghostvillage.com has been reviewing and categorizing other paranormal Web sites for the last year and a half. As you can imagine, this was a daunting task.  Now we have launched “Ghost Search,” a Web directory that enables you to search by keywords and section headings. This search engine also enables users to register their own Web sites and keywords, which will help make the service grow much faster.

Remember, this is your site, too!  If you have suggestions or want to help, please contact us: info@ghostvillage.com.

Is Your Home Haunted?…

Yes, even new polling software! Take our new paranormal poll and see what your fellow Ghostvillagers think.

If you regularly shop online at such stores as Amazon.com you can help ensure the growth of Ghostvillage.com by doing your online shopping through us.  Just go to http://www.ghostvillage.com/shop.htm and click on a banner ad.  You won’t pay anything extra by clicking through us, and a portion of your purchases will help us greatly.

Ghostvillage.com is looking for writers

As always, if you have any articles or investigations to share with Ghostvillage.com, we do pay for well-researched, well-written articles in our "Legends" section. Please inquire for writer's guidelines and rates.

Do you have a ghostly experience or photograph?

Ghostvillage.com’s personal encounter section is rapidly growing. We are actively seeking accounts of your encounters as well as photographs with orbs, ghost mists, and other paranormal phenomena to add to our encounters section.  Please send in your pictures and experiences!

Your input, ideas, and experiences are welcomed.  Please email us any time at info@ghostvillage.com.

Happy Hauntings, 

Jeff Belanger
