DANA NEWKIRK GETS WEIRD - Traveling Paranormal Researcher Dana Newkirk of Planet Weird tells a strange tale about one of the unusual artifacts in the “Traveling Museum of the Paranormal and the Occult" during the 2017 Haunted America Conference in Alton, Illinois. Dana has been exploring the Strange and WEIRD - for decades now - all across Paranormal America. With her paranormal partner, Greg Newkirk, Dana has seen (and experienced) it all - having visited hundreds of Weird and Haunted Locations over the years. The Newkirks have also appeared on a number of paranormal TV programs, including Animal Planet's "Finding Bigfoot" and Travel Channel's "Mysteries at the Museum," amongst many others. Dana and Greg are frequently interviewed on popular radio shows, including "Coast to Coast AM," and have lectured (bringing with them their Traveling Museum and Cursed Curiosities) at numerous Paranormal Conferences and events across the country. This paranormal power couple catalogues their Weird Adventures on their Planet Weird site (PlanetWeirdHQ) and write on All-Things Weird via their popular "Week In Weird" website. They can be followed on most social media, including Facebook. Dana is also a knowledgeable practitioner of “Natural Magic” and offers a variety of goods (through her “Magic of the Month” service) that can be of benefit to those believers who are so inclined.

NO, SAMMIE, YOU CANNOT TOUCH THE IDOL OF NIGHTMARES - Sammie Huntington attempts to get a closer inspection of "Billy: The Idol of Nightmares" while checking out the cursed curiosities on display at Greg and Dana Newkirk's "Traveling Museum of the Paranormal and the Occult" during the 2017 "Haunted America Conference" held in Alton, Illinois this past June. Some who have held this allegedly haunted relic claim to have experienced "strange and nightmarish dreams" for a period after. The Huntingtons slept peacefully, and well, in the following days - we did not touch.

This is one of my favorite museums, hands down. I love the idea of a museum that comes to YOU, whether it's on the road or online. Greg and Dana have done an amazing job nurturing a passionate audience that isn't afraid to get a little weird.
