I talk about my kids often and they recently have been having bouts of nightmares and have been scared of ghosts.  I think it is a result of their sister instilling the horror in them.  I think I will wake her up each time they wake me up because their is a ghost in the closet.  If I was really sinister I would hide in her closet and scare the you know what out of her!  This made me think of the people out there that really do like the idea of ghosts and other things paranormal.  I search out where I could find a paranormal convention and ran across “Scarefest” in Lexington, Kentucky.  Scarefest is brought to us by Ghost Chasers International and their principals, Patti Starr and Jeff Waldridge of the Ghost Hunter Shop.

This event will be held at the Lexington Convention Center.  According to the Scarefest site the convention center is right in the middle of everything!

The Lexington Convention Center is located in the center of the city, in the center of Kentucky and the center of 75% of the population of the United States, at the intersection of I-64 and I-75. In fact, Lexington is no more than a 5 hour drive from the most distant reaches of this massive market.

The Lexington Convention Center is a faciltiy of nearly 130,000 square feet, but only 18,000 square feet will be used for the Scarefest.  The convention center is owned and operated by the Lexington Center Corporation and they also operate the Rupp Arena, the Lexington Opera House, the Shops at Lexington Center and Triangle Park.  If interested in booking an event at the Lexington Convention Center they have an information page.  For now I have to run and check the closet again for that scary monster that is hiding inside.
