| Also known as the Gibson Mansion, the Yolo County Historical Museum is a beautifully- preserved historic house museum. It’s believed that the old clothes and artifacts on display keep the souls anchored to this location. The California Haunts team felt surrounded by history on this visit. Woodland is home to the Yolo County Historical Museum, which is about 20 minutes north of Sacramento. To read more about the history of the Yolo County Historical Museum, click on the photo. |

| This nineteenth-century building is a hotbed of paranormal activity, and the spirits always seem interested in interacting with the California Haunts team. Located twenty-three miles northwest of Sacramento, the Woodland Opera House Theatre is a historic state landmark that’s also an operating theatre offering live entertainment. We can’t say for sure, but we hope to find out someday if the entities who seem to want to contact us at the Woodland Opera House might be former actors or patrons… or perhaps the fireman who perished in the fire of 1892 that destroyed the original building.

| Sequoia at the Bee-Bennett House in Placerville is a gorgeous restaurant, set across from the historic Union Cemetery. The California Haunts team felt that members of the Bennett family were trying to make their presence known, even to this day. And crazy as it my sound, the location where the highest level of activity took place just happened to be the ladies room… where we may have contacted a former “lady of the house.” To read more about the history of the Sequoia Restaurant, Bee-Bennett House, click the photo. |
| Historically known as the Willow Hotel in Jamestown, located about an hour west of Yosemite, the Willow Steakhouse has a long history of haunted activity and the California Haunts team was determined to search high and low for evidence. Though tragic fire damage throughout history has redefined the original two-story structure, that didn’t stop the team from trying to make contact with spirits who might still be connected with the alleged “hanging room” that had once been located on the second floor! |

| Built in 1927 and known for its beautiful ocean view, delicious food and most famous spirit, the “Blue Lady,” the Moss Beach Distillery restaurant beckoned the California Haunts paranormal investigation team and two guest investigators from the San Francisco Ghost Society. Our preliminary team found evidence of spirit activity well before the investigation was scheduled. When the preliminary team first visited the Moss Beach Distillery, one of the restaurant patrons explained that her fork had slid off the table and onto the floor, not once, but twice! When the night of the formal investigation finally arrived, everyone was ready to explore the former speakeasy and learn of any hidden secrets the bootleggers or patrons from an era long ago might want to share.

| Located in the small town of Coulterville, the Historic Hotel Jeffery is a lovely and welcoming oasis. The California Haunts investigation team was greeted by owners Peter and Cherylann with the utmost hospitality and charming stories describing the various spirit activity in their establishment. We stayed up until the early hours of the morning conducting EVP recording sessions and watching orbs fly through the hotel rooms where we’d set up cameras that we could watch on our infrared video monitoring system. The Hotel Jeffery is not only rich in history, but we were able to collect a lot of potentially paranormal evidence that we’re anxious to evaluate as we look for genuine phenomenon.

| Museum curators and employees alike have stories to tell about the former air base and its B-29 Raz’n Hell. Built over a 26-year period and from the parts of three planes, strange occurrences are said to happen aboard the craft. From tools moving by themselves to passerby seeing landing and navigation lights on the plane when there is in fact, no electrical wiring working. The B-29 is an interesting piece of history. For more information about the plane and the museum, click on the photo. |
