One more day until the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Light the Night Walk at Lake Eola. Thanks to friends and family who helped the Dusty's Ghost Walkers Team exceed our fundraising goal! An extra special thanks to Prometheus Esoterica for their generous donation. Pop in for some awesomely spooky coffee or to shop their super cool collection of unique stuff. They sell Dusty's book, Dread and the Dead Filled the Dunnam House, and have been so helpful in getting some of Dusty's many unique collections into the hands of people who will enjoy them like she did. Who knows? That casket plate you buy might have been one she owned!

Welcome to Dusty's Ghost Walkers' Fundraising Page Light The Night At The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light The Night we gather as a community to celebrate, honor, and remember those touched by blood cancers. Friends, families, schools, corporate teams, and sponsors join together to bring light to the darkness of cancer. The funds raised by this...

In the midst of preparing for another storm to hit the area, we pause to remember this night 10 years ago when we said goodbye to Dusty. She was a fighter until the end and she is greatly missed. We think of her often.

The decision to revive her ghost tours for Halloween weekend after so long was not taken lightly. But it felt right. We laughed and struggled but were so happy to share memories of her. And to hear her voice and laughter again. So many wonderful people joined us on that journey and we were bolstered by all of the kind words from both those who literally came along for the ride and many who didn't. I quote, "She was tough, funny and a great friend."

We would be remiss if we didn't also shout out a belated thank you to all the people who helped make it possible:

Steve at Fun Coast Tours, Diane at Hometown News Volusia, Carla at Drifter's Route 1 Bar & Grill, Jeremy and family at Copper Bottom Craft Distillery, the staff at Tir na nOg Irish Pub for sharing their own ghostly experiences, our friends at Holly Hill Historic Preservation Society, Inc. and the McCoy House, Rescue ReTail, Halifax Humane Society, Inc. Thrift Store, and of course, supportive friends and family too numerous to mention individually. You know who you are!

Happy Halloween!
Thanks to everybody who joined us on the ghost tours this past weekend. What started as one tour to celebrate Dusty's life turned into three sold out tours!!!
We had so much fun and it meant the world to her son Kyle! We know she was laughing with us...or at us!

We're donating part of the proceeds to the Dusty's Ghost Walkers Team for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society! You can help!

Please join our team to walk at Lake Eola in Orlando on 11/17; share this link widely with friends; and if so inclined, make a donation in her memory!

Haunts of Daytona announces the return of ghost tours to the area for Halloween weekend to celebrate Dusty’s 60th birthday! This year also marks 10 years since she lost her battle with leukemia.

Friends and family are partnering with Fun Coast Tours for a fun and spooky evening of spirits—both the ghostly and the drinking kind! This intimate 12-person-only tour will begin and end at one of Dusty’s regular haunts-local dive bar Drifters Route 1 Bar & Grill. Frequented by her and filled with paranormal activity, it earned a coveted spot in her book “Haunted Daytona.” Then we’ll board a well-equipped air-conditioned party bus to tour Daytona, cruising by several haunted locations and stopping to imbibe along the way.

Join us for a one-of-a kind ghost tour based on the original “Haunts of the World’s Most Famous Beach” tour given by Dusty herself—one of the first and only ghost tours on the east coast of the United States owned & operated by a certified ghost hunter. Guests will hear not only the colorful history and folklore of the area, but also stories documented as true hauntings by the former Daytona Beach Paranormal Research Group, Inc. You will also enjoy an exclusive rum tasting, drink specials (BOGO or discounted) on your first order, and specialty-themed cocktails available for purchase.

Feel free to bring your cameras and any of your own ghost hunting equipment as we do hope to get paranormal activity along the route. Family, friends, and fellow investigators will be available to answer your questions!

Are you a believer? You might be after this! Journey with us if you dare!

**A portion of proceeds will be donated to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Light the Night Walk**
