Not only was some interesting evidence collected by the Ghost Hunters visit to the Cashtown Inn, the owners of the Inn hosted a party for the premiere of the episode last night.
The Paladino’s who own the Cashtown Inn donated about $2000 to the Adams County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
The Kitty Ghost Hunters applaud this action by the Paladino’s. I’m sure your local SPCA would love your support if you donated a little something.
The Evening Sun of Hanover, PA has a nice article about the event:
Jack Paladino said that was the first he heard of the picture frame moving, but a rocking chair next to the picture frame has been reported to move on its own as well.
Paladino and his wife appeared in the episode, with Paladino taking the investigators on a tour of the property and sitting down with the team for “the reveal,” during which TAPS shares what it found during the investigation. Although he knew what the team found, Paladino did not share any information about the show prior to Wednesday’s premiere.
“We had a good idea it was going to be positive, which was really hard to hold back,” Paladino said.
Maria Paladino said she was excited to have TAPS come to the inn but was unsure of the “aftermath” - partly because of what the team might find and also because of how busy the inn could get. But she said she was pleased with what the ghost hunters found.
“I was very excited … (but) not really surprised because we have so many reports,” she said. “Just excited that they were actually able to catch something while they were here.”
We suggest if you are in the area of Gettysburg to stay at the Cashtown Inn. We hope to make a visit ourselves soon. We imagine they will be pretty busy!

We just wanted to point out to our UK readers that they can help raise money to support 4SIGHT. This organization that is largely self-funded helps Blind and Partially Sighted People living in and visiting West Sussex.
4SIGHT organizes “Haunted House Sleepovers”. It’s not clear on that page when the next event will take place but there is a contact form you can use to find out.
Also be aware the Sussex Paranormal Research & Investigation Team (SPiRIT) takes part in these events so if you are new to ghost hunting there will be experienced people there to help you.
Have fun ghost hunting for a worthy cause!!

Derek Acorah of TV shows Most Haunted and Derek Acorah’s Ghost Towns is going to participate in two fundraisers in April organized by The Anthony Nolan Trust.
The Southern Reporter has the details:
On Thursday, April 24, Derek will be holding an audience with Border fans which, say organisers, promises to be a hugely entertaining display of his psychic ability.
And on Friday, only 50 places are available for a night at what was recently described by a team of paranormal investigators as one of the scariest places in Britain. The first half of the night will be spent in the grim surroundings of Mary Queen of Scots’ House which was occupied by the fateful Scottish monarch in 1566 and today houses her death mask.
For more information contact the trust on 01506 655361.
The Borders Paranormal Group will also be participating.
Is you go to either of these events we would love to hear what it was like. This is the forth fundraiser was have heard happening in the UK just in the last few months. It’s great to see paranormal groups and fans stepping up to use their interest in the paranormal to raise money for worthy causes.
It makes us wonder if American and Canadian groups and organizations do the same thing. We haven’t heard of any but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened. Let us know in the comments if you have heard of any that have happened or are to happen in the future.
Thanks.
