Our first event for 2023 will kick off at the haunted Belmont Inn, located in Abbeville, SC. The Belmont Inn, which first opened its doors 130 years ago, has seen a rich and diverse history. It served as a hotel for railroad workers and vaudeville stars and low-income renters before nearly falling apart in the mid-20th century. In the late 20th century, it underwent drastic renovations and returned to being a destination inn for upstate SC. The legends of paranormal activity span decades. The inn hosts 24 renovated and classic hotel rooms and also boasts a restaurant and bar as well as meeting space for events.
What we'll be doing: We'll be hosting our first mini-conference at the event, including guest speakers who will offer a variety of topics about the paranormal. For VIPs, we'll check-in on Thursday and investigate another historic location within walking distance, then enjoying a quiet gathering. On Friday, we will host a dinner and talk, followed by a ghost hunt. On Saturday, we will host the workshops and then another night of investigating and seances. For a full breakdown of the schedule, see below.
