About Katie Mullaly

Katie Mullaly is the author (along with Patrick) of the very popular Scare-Izona: A Travel Guide to Arizona's Spookiest Spots and Tucson's Most Haunted. Their third book - Finding Ghosts in Phoenix - will hit the shelves this fall, and two more books are currently in production. As well as writing for the hugely popular "The Buzz Media" website, she can frequently be seen as a featured extra in most of Peter Leon's films. She is her own Easter egg. Basically, she's awesome. She would also like to meet Adam Lambert because he's cool on a cellular level. So, if anyone can hook that up for her, that'd be great.

Cribs Aren’t Just For Babies, Anymore.

Teen crib. As I await the power calls from the folks that are going to be moving and shaking me into a brand new tax bracket, I have been pissing my day away watching what may be the single most hope-effacing show on television. Teen Cribs. Why am I watching Teen Cribs?  Because it was [...]

Trailers For Sale Or Rent…

So, I received in my email what I think may actually be the new low in paranormal exploitation.  Forget everything about charging for investigations – I’ve yet to meet the group that actually DOES that, and if I did, I would simply point and laugh.  The tables have now turned, and instead of the ubiquitous [...]

Peter Leon – Cinematic Genius

Okay, so here’s the deal.  Peter Leon is absolutely on FIRE, and I don’t mean with gonorrhea.  He is the bomb-diggity when it comes to filmmaking, and here is the trailer – hot off the presses – for his newest movie.  See if you recognize anyone in the trailer…look for the guy with the UNO [...]

Opposition To The Proposition…

You know, I would really like to know where in fresh hell all the GODDAMNED Proposition 100 money has gone. Something IS rotten in Denmark. You see, now there is another proposition being introduced in November that is asking voters to approve a half-cent tax increase for public safety.  Isn’t that part of what Prop [...]

OMG, I Want a Slow Loris!!!

I wonder how well the cats would take to a Slow Loris?  Of course, I’d have to name mine Dolores. Editor’s Note: So that video was super-adorable and I just had to know more about these Slow Lori-us-sus: The slow loris is a primate, native to the rainforests of Southeast Asia, Indonesia, north- eastern India, [...]

What’s In A Name?

One of the most important aspects of creating a paranormal investigation team is selecting a proper name.  The name must denote competence, ability, compassion, integrity, etc.  A team’s name can either boost them to superstardom, or be the nail in their coffin.  The name is often the first thing the general public will see, and [...]

A Compelling Message From a Diehard GHOST HUNTERS Fan!

You’ve all read my posts.  I’m not hiding any big secrets about thinking that PERHAPS certain shows pad, recreate, or even weave from whole cloth their “results.”  Understandably, such a forward-thinking, against-the-grain set of opinions are bound to get you locked into many a pissing contest and, judging by the nearly 400 responses on my original [...]

His Judgement Cometh And That Right Soon.

Or perhaps you prefer, “For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” (Matthew 7:12) Only two groups of people have ever made me feel judged.  Those that relish a vulgar wealth and hold disdain for those that don’t, and [...]

25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee – Review

Okay, so a friend of mine hooked me up to see the final dress rehearsal of the Arizona Onstage production of The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee – opening tonight at the Temple of Music and Art (330 S. Scott Ave.) – and I gladly accepted.  I hadn’t seen it and I thought it would [...]

Janice, It Ain’t Funny!!!

I laughed so hard, I was crying, until it occured to me how scared this poor kid is.  Janice is just oblivious.  Cackling like a witch. I bet you laugh, too, you horrible bastards.  *giggle*

I’m LEAVING the PARANORMAL!!!!

Out of paranormal drama, that is. If you have been following my posts, it comes as no shock to you that the concept of paranormal drama has become its own cottage industry.  The very mention of the phrase is divisive, and the decision of a person’s guilt in participating or exacerbating the situation becomes completely [...]

MARRIAGE – A MUST READ *rolls eyes*

I suppose a good opening to this would be to quote that bit from The Princess Bride, but I will save you that predicability.  I recently clicked on a Facebook link demanding that I “must read” the following interminable passage regarding marriage.  I will now inflict same unto my dear readers  (although, I think I’m [...]

These Are Not Kittens, And This Is Not Cute.

I don’t drive.  Please note that I said “don’t” and not “can’t.”  I have a driver’s license, but I have never been able to get past the crippling and overwhelming fear I have of riding in cars, let alone actually driving a car.  There has never been a time in my life when I have [...]

Review – Arizona Grand Resort

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then prepare yourself for about 10,000 words of what could possibly be the coolest place in the state to escape during the long, hot days of an Arizona summer.  I am referring, of course, to the Arizona Grand Resort, located at 8000 Arizona Grand Parkway in Phoenix, Arizona. The [...]

Paranormal Posers – Redux

I am sure you have all become rather well-acquainted with my previous Paranormal Posers post.  While it’s original intention was to point out the blanket of hatred that covers the entire paranormal community by those that either don’t believe us or the inter-community jealousy held by disgruntled members towards anyone else who has attained any modest success  [...]

Damn You, Paranormal Posers!!!

Wait.  What’s a paranormal poser?  I mean, I am FULLY PREPARED to unleash a litany of strongly-worded STRONG WORDS towards anyone bringing tarnish and untoward monkey-business into the most holy of holies – paranormal investigation – but FIRST, I must get to the bottom of this “paranormal poser” situation. According to a new, timely, and [...]

The Day The Music Changed The World…

I can’t believe it’s been 25 years. The single greatest lament of my life – aside from the fact that I am having to rewrite this entire post because the Youtube video decided it needed to obliterate my entire original text – is the fact that we were visiting family IN PENNSYLVANIA a week or [...]

Crying Shame…

Of all categories of the world of the paranormal, and with all due deference to the varying degrees of paratardation that we have talked about ad infinitum, there is still one question that burns in the minds of all paranormal investigators: Why in God’s name does every haunted accomodation have to be a rundown, ramshackle [...]

Viral Marketing At Its Finest…

Okay, at first glance, my reaction was, “this bitch needs to be SLAPPED.”  I realize she’s somebody’s lovin’ mother, but honestly she’s really aggravating and annoying and I suspect she’s just like that anyway…which made this plan a “perfect storm” of advertising. Let’s just read between the lines here:  Kids want to sell energy drink.  [...]

You Don’t Bring Me Flowers Anymore…

I recently sent a friend a text message using the phrase “reach-around” in response to my feelings about having to pay a large sum to have my washing machine repaired.  I think that may be one of my favorite phrases in the whole wide world.  It definitely ranks among the heavy hitters like “douchebag” and [...]

Retro Review – Boardinghouse!!!

Here in Tucson, we have this FABULOUS movie theater that shows all sorts of independent films, art films, cult films, and all manner of alternative films that you may not see anywhere else in town.  It’s called The Loft, and it’s been around since Christ was a corporal (www.loftcinema.com).  Everybody loves The Loft, and every Monday, [...]
