 In my book "Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation" I stayed in a bed and breakfast in a former Tudor Era castle, that turned out to be haunted,  In fact, there was a ghost named Rupert in my room and I wound up figuring out exactly who he was and learned why he was there. You can read about him in my book. In today's blog, Thanks to an article in the UK Hampshire Chronicle, you'll read about the Angel and Blue Pig Hotel in Lymington, England.

Ghosts of England: On a Medium's Vacation

What happens when a medium goes on vacation? Can a medium simply switch off their ability at will? Well…not exactly. Rob Gutro is a medium/author/paranormal investigator and a scientist who has written 4 books about his encounters with human and animal ghosts and spirits. In this book, you will read about his experiences on two separate trips to the United Kingdom. England’s rich history and many epic battles have caused an over-abundance of residual emotional energy. Everywhere he traveled, he had a paranormal experience. He explored royal palaces and spent the night in haunted castles. He encountered the ghosts of historical figures including a queen, a prince, and a nobleman; and several ghosts even shared their pain of death experience with him.

   ABOUT THE BOOK:  It's uncommon for a medium really get know a spirit so well that the living person considers the spirit a best friend. But that's exactly what happened to medium and paranormal investigator Rob Gutro. When Rob met his partner Tom in 2005, Ed's spirit came along for the ride. Rob never knew Ed in life, but Tom did. Now, Ed often communicates to Rob and has revealed his sense of humor, his heart, and helped solved the mystery of his passing. Ed's "Spirit Treasure Hunt" showed his family he's with them, too. Ed even sent a look-alike to rescue Rob during a vacation in England. As you read about this special spirit named Ed and his sometimes funny communications, you'll learn signs your loved ones send. This book will teach you how to be more aware of messages from your loved ones in spirit. "Being a friend with Ed in spirit is like having a friend who lives in another state" - Author Rob Gutro describing his relationship with Ed's spirit.

Haunted Trails #1 - Bloody Lane Trail, Maryland

The Travel channel did a feature about Haunted Trails, and this is the first installment. The Bloody Lane Trail in Maryland.

Bloody Lane Trail, Maryland

This 1.5-mile trail in Antietam National Battlefield was the site of one of the deadliest Civil War battles in 1862. As a result, visitors report seeing ghostly soldiers both day and night. Many soldiers are buried around Burnside’s Bridge, and phenomena include witnessing balls of blue light, hearing drumming, gunfire and battlefield songs and smelling gunpowder.

ABOUT THE BATTLEFIELD (Now a National Park): The Bloodiest Day in American History--Hope for Freedom 23,000 soldiers were killed, wounded or missing after twelve hours of savage combat on September 17, 1862.

Meet the Alleyway Ghost and More in a new book "Case Files of Inspired Ghost Tracking"

A book called "Case Files of Inspired Ghost Tracking," by best-selling paranormal author Rob Gutro takes readers on paranormal investigations into private and historic homes where ghosts were traumatizing families. 
  You'll read about the Alleyway Ghost in the pages of Case Files. You'll learn why he's there and why he died there, just as we did when the paranormal investigators met him in the alleyway behind a house in the Baltimore area. Rob even sketched him out and got confirmation from the homeowner that that was indeed the ghost they saw walking around in their house! 
  Rob, a medium in the Inspired Ghost Tracking paranormal group, announced the release of his seventh paranormal book that brings readers along on investigations and reveals some bizarre and shocking things the group found and how they helped the ghosts and families.

"When earthbound ghosts have traumatized families in their own homes, Inspired Ghost Tracking (IGT) of Maryland has gone in to cross them over," Gutro said. "Every case is different, too. Some have had earthbound ghosts that were friendly, others were not. IGT experienced a lot of bad energies that caused people to become physically sick or mentally traumatized. IGT investigators had to figure who, what, when and why things were happening, to finally bring peace to the living and the dead."  

In this collection of IGT cases, you’ll read about the "Burned Ghost," ghosts of two different time periods in one home, dark things that Ouija boards brought into homes, a very haunted Maryland mansion, many ghosts of Baltimore’s Federal Hill, a ghostly attachment, a Steelworker’s ghost, poltergeist activity, the famous IGT “Double Murder Ghost Investigation” and many more.

You'll find answers to questions like why ghosts choose to stay in a place, the differences and similarities between ghosts and spirits, why energy is the key to the paranormal and much more.

Although Rob has become known as a "Pet Medium" through the success of his best-selling books "Pets and the Afterlife" and "Pets and the Afterlife 2," he also connects with human earthbound ghosts and spirits.

Gutro is the first in the paranormal field to make the distinction between earthbound ghosts and spirits who have crossed over. Rob has three books about his experience with human ghosts and spirits, called "Ghosts and Spirits," "Lessons Learned from Talking to the Dead," and "Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation," and most recently, "Kindred Spirits: How a Medium Befriended a Spirit."   

Rob Gutro has been featured in the Washington Post and nationally syndicated radio programs like "Coast to Coast AM." Rob is a volunteer with Dachshund and Weimaraner rescues and gives fundraising lectures for animal rescues around the U.S., teaching grieving pet parents how pets communicate from the afterlife.

Royal Ghosts: Windsor Castle - home to numerous sightings

Queen Elizabeth 1 said to haunt Windsor Castle. 

During the 2020 pandemic an article came out speculating that some of the royal family may have more ghost sightings in Windsor Castle. Apparently Windsor Castle is known to harbor several ghosts of royalty. I also had the pleasure of visiting England and you can read about my encounters with the ghosts there in my book "Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation," available on Amazon.  Here's the article.

 By GURSIMRAN HANS https://www.express.co.uk/news/weird/1286087/Queen-news-Prince-Philip-Windsor-Castle-ghosts-Princess-Maragret-history-weird PUBLISHED: 05:02, Sat, May 23, 2020

If legends are to be believed, the Royal Family in England were joined by one of 25 ghosts reported as having been seen at the property. The Queen herself once claimed to have seen an apparition of Queen Elizabeth I with her sister Princess Margaret, the Countess of Snowdon.

According to Visit Britain, Elizabeth I is “often seen in the library” and “her footsteps can be heard on the bare floorboards before her striking presence appears”. Elizabeth I ruled from 1558 until 1603 and having died childless was the last monarch of the Tudor era.

King George III has been reported to have been seen too. According to the Sun, he has been spotted “looking longingly out of the room beneath the library, where he was confined during his several periods of madness”. George III would spend the end of his life fighting some form of mental illness, the cause of which remains unknown. Much of his reign was also dominated by military accomplishments - victory in the Seven Years’ and Napoleonic Wars but also defeat in the American War of Independence. His son, the later King George IV ruled for the last decade of his father’s reign as regent.

 King Henry III and Herne, a huntsman for King Richard III have also been said to have been spotted. Henry III became King of England aged just nine and ruled until the age of 65. He was buried in Westminster Abbey, which he had built during a reign in which he had to contend with sometimes hostile barons.

 According to Readers’ Digest, King George VI claimed to have seen the ghost of Queen Elizabeth I eight nights in a row on the onset of the Second World War.

Paranormal Q&A: 2 Questions about Ghostly Attachments

 I've been a member of the Inspired Ghost Tracking group for about a decade now, and love getting questions. Recently, Chris asked 2 very good questions about ghostly attachments. In my book "Case Files of Inspired Ghost Tracking" by Rob Gutro, you'll read about such an attachment in the "Case of the Burned Ghost" (available on Amazon). Here are today's questions and answers!  

1) When the team goes out and encounters a ghost who does not want to move on, how do the team members try to stop the ghost from attaching to them?

A: Typically, if a ghost doesn't want to move on, they want to stay fixed at the location of their choosing, so they won't try to attach themselves to anyone. However, if they just want to leave their location and try to attach to one of the paranormal investigators they likely can't. That's because before we go into a place, we issue a "prayer of protection" - calling on spirits (like loved ones, spirit guides, etc.) to protect us, and then surround ourselves by positive emotional energy - like an energy blanket of sorts. Because the energy is positive, and ghosts are negative emotional energy, they are blocked from attaching to investigators.

2)  Has it always worked or have folks had to try to break the ghostly attachment multiple times?

So far, the protections have worked. I also usually encourage people to do the same procedures in their home if they have a ghost. 

    One time that an Inspired Ghost Tracking person did not surround herself by white light and do the protection prayer, a ghost actually DID attach to her at a hospital when she was visiting someone. The ghost followed her to a paranormal group meeting where she was discovered by some fellow investigators, and myself and several others had to cross her over!

 Over the last couple of years, I've been fortunate to work with Tony Hoos, Television producer at Howard County Community College, who produces historic and sometimes haunted short video specials about the county here in Maryland. There are several of my video interviews on their website that feature the Ghost cat in the Envy Salon, Pets and the Afterlife, and the haunting of the Patapsco Female Institute.  In this 4 minutevideo, Tony and his amazing crew take you BACK to explore Howard County Historical Society Museum  (this is part 2). 

Mike McManus and Dustin Linz introduce us to their office, the Howard County Historical Society Museum. The museum is a former church with parishioners so loyal, they don’t want to leave. Or at least their spirits don’t. Women sing, ceilings and walls talk, and the old cook holds a grudge about losing her job. Plus, the mysterious black mask follows Mike and Dustin inside, with some chilling results.

Paranormal Q and A: What are some differences between the spirits of pets and the spirits of humans?

Each week, I'll answer a question about the paranormal, whether a general question, or one about human or animal ghosts (Earthbound) or spirits (crossed over). This week's question is: What are some differences between the spirits of pets and the spirits of humans? 

 ANSWER: Pets communicate the way that they behaved in life as humans do. Whatever a dog or cat could do when they were alive in the physical world, they can do in spirit. So they can generate sound of nails walking on a floor, or a meow or bark from spirit (although it takes a LOT of energy).  They can also touch a person from spirit (it may feel like a light pressure against someone). 

   People can also generate sounds like footsteps, can call out a name or speak any words, and can also touch living people. 

As a side note,  Pets know limited words in life, but they can show me images of what the liked, where they lived, and who they're with on the other side. One dog told me his dad and mom gave him ice cream the day he passed, and they verified that they took him to a Wendy's drive through and got him ice cream because it was his favorite. He also gave me details about his favorite place to walk and the name of his grandmother in Germany! - It was amazing. - So, they're really not that different! Pets have the intelligence of a 3 to 5 year old child

BOTTOM LINE: Communications from the spirits of people and pets can be very much the same. It's all about how they lived and habits they had during their time on Earth.
