Here's a VERY cool photo that was sent to us by our friend Gay:
"We went on your 7pm tour last Friday (10/7)…we were a large group of 11 (to include Mr. "Texas"). We ALL enjoyed your tour, especially the time we spent at the cemetery. I wanted to send you this pic of Mr. "Texas" (aka: Bud), my brother-in-law. Bud's wife snapped this pic with her phone camera. I thought it was very interesting!!!! Thank you again!!"Here's an email I received this morning from "Bud", the man in the "Swoooosh" photo below:
"This Bud. Thought I would give you some background.
"After stepping off of the trolley the wands keep guiding me to the left and when I got close to the grave headstone the wands crossed. We read the name and did not recognize it as anyone we knew that had any of the names listed. As went we looked further down the stone the date October 30th appeared which was the day of my fathers death. After asking several questions and receiving correct response I had chills. Now in seeing this picture I know dad was there."
Bud, thanks so much for your email. Some guests that have taken our tour tell me that they believe the possibility exists that our loved ones who have passed away may be with us quite often...so, during the Haunted Hannibal tour, when we are thinking of the possibility of communicating with spirits, when our minds are open to the idea, that's their chance to signal to us that they are, in fact, with us. Isn't that a wonderful, hopeful, comforting idea?
So glad you took our tour, you were a good sport and we hope to see you again soon. Next time you have the chance, say hello to your father for us. :)Anyone have any ideas on what could cause this? Even Ken said, "Yeah, that one is pretty interesting..."
Thanks to Gay and Bud and the gang for taking the tour, and to Gay for sending us the photo. Hope to see you guys again soon!
