West Virginia is celebrating its rich history of high strangeness with the creation of an official paranormal trail that highlights over a dozen odd and eerie locations found throughout the state. Developed by the West Virginia Department of Tourism, the clever initiative was announced on Monday by Governor Jim Justice. "I love when we come up with new ways to get folks to explore West Virginia," he said, "we've got so much unique history here, stories passed down through the years, and even a few ghost tales." To encourage would-be explorers, the concept includes a 'digital passport' for travelers to check in at each location along the spooky state-wide tour with the chance to win prizes as they accumulate stops.

55 Haunted Hotels Around the World — If You Dare You might want to sleep with one eye open.

While a haunted house is a frightening enough prospect during the Halloween season, haunted hotels might be even creepier—and even more delightfully thrilling. Maybe it’s the influence of so many movies and TV shows, but things going “bump” in the night seem to be even, er, bumpier in an unfamiliar hall packed with sleeping strangers. And with many of the world's most famous hotels being more than a century old, they've wracked up all sorts of tragedies and legends over the decades, as well as peculiar guests and residents who despite checking out, decide to never, ever leave.

THE SESSION MEN STORY 1965. At Western Studios in LA, a group of musicians (later known as The Wrecking Crew) are working on a song called Help Me Rhonda. They include Glen Campbell, Hal Blaine, Larry Knechtel, Don Randi and Ms. Carol Kaye on bass. When Rhonda shoots to Number One, the Beach Boys are heralded for their brilliant musicianship. But their live shows don't sound like their records. And no wonder. The Wrecking Crew performed on all of the big Beach Boys hits. Brian Wilson requested these players after hearing the magic they created for Phil Spector on productions like Be My Baby, Da Do Ron Ron and He's a Rebel. It's not widely known that Capitol's contract with The Beach Boys, who were signed by Nick Venet, stipulated that they hire studio musicians. Wrecking Crew players also tracked hits for The Byrds (Mr Tambourine Man, Turn Turn Turn) Association (Never My Love, Cherish) Mamas & Papas (California Dreamin', Monday Monday) Grass Roots (Midnight Confessions, Sooner or Later) Carpenter's (Close To You, We've Only Just Begun) Fifth Dimension (Wedding Bell Blues, Marry Me Bill) Monkees (Mary Mary) Paul Revere's Raiders (Kicks, Steppin' Stone) Jay's American's (Cara Mia, Come a Little Bit Closer) Sonny & Cher (I Got You Babe, The Beat Goes On) Herb Alpert (Lonely Bull, This Guy) America (Ventura Highway, Horse with No Name) Frank (Strangers in The Night) and Nancy (Boots) to name just a few.
