New CSE Project
Okay, so my company, Crimson Star Entertainment, has embarked on yet another new project. In a series we have so far titled 'Haunted Atlanta' we are producing a few small thematic documentaries for Youtube. The first of these is the documentary on the Rose House.
Of course, given that many of the elements of the story involve tales and premonitions given from psychics and paranormal investigators, it can't be quite called a documentary, but rather a thematic production with documentary-like elements.
But we have some good plans for the project, to include hiring an actress and actor to recreate one of the tales that was related to me by a psychic over the course of a few months. It is, what she believes, leads the building to be haunted. I have decided against hosting it myself, as I don't particularly think I have a voice or the face for film. However, if I have to I will.
Mostly, we are putting this together on a bubblegum budget, so we have to keep our costs down as low as possible, while still producing a quality film that still meets the needs for the project. If your a fan of this blog, it should be a worthwhile view.
If you feel like contributing to the project, donate! We do still need a budget, even just to park the cars downtown while we do some shooting! But either way, I appreciate you all! Take a look at my website, and join the mailing list:

Shakespeare's Tavern
Okay, so in downtown Atlanta, right off of Peachtree Street, there is a small theater/tavern called 'Shakespeare's Tavern'. It was a usual spot on the tours I used to give, and admittedly, one of the most photogenic.
It is a beautiful, victorian-inspired building that used to be a support facility for a commuter taxi in Atlanta in it's early days. Definately, its a worthwhile place to visit, if only to catch a drink and a show.
However, there are stories of hauntings. A young boy, dressed in Victorian clothing, is said to have been spotted in he upper levels of the tavern. There are also reports of a phantom man on the lower levels. However, there are no specific stories or tales to back up this information, and as of yet, I have garnered little information about this haunting.
This builing is also a great place to take photographs as I have had numerous reports of Orbs and other phenomenon on film. However, my investigation of such pictures are very limited, so I couldn't tell you much, except that the photos are genuine, as in they were taken there without any setup.
I will try to go to this site and take some photos there, and post them here for yall to review.

Underground Atlanta
Underground is one of the best places that you can go to see our actual history. For those of you who are not from Atlanta, please allow me to briefly explain.
You see, Atlanta was originally founded as the Cherokee and Creek Indians were pushed out of the valley that is now Atlanta. The Atlantic and Western Rail-lines decided to create a joint venture here, and created Terminus, which was a train station, and community. However, unlike the rest of the "Genteel" south, Terminus wasn't a fancy southern community like Charleston, Savannah or such. It was actually a fairly rough and tumble town, filled with railway workers and transients.
However, over time, Atlanta has changed, been burned, been the center for a peaceful movement of change, and is now the de-facto capital of the South. Atlanta now stands as a capital of economics, culture, and technology in the south, with the busiest airport in the nation, and a huge transportation infrastructure. But if you look closer, you can take a peek into it's past.
One example of this, is Underground. For you see, when Atlanta was rebuilt, it was literally rebuilt on the remains of the old city. Underground Atlanta is one example of this, as it has at least two levels from two different eras, over which downtown Atlanta was built.
However, as with anything that is old, there are more than a few stories associated with the paranormal. One such story, is that the Confederates had a Theater level hospital in the region. The capacity of the Hospital was about 1500 people, and during the height of the conflict, they had that many people arriving per day seeking medical treatment. So it was likely that many died in the field outside of the Hospital, waiting on treatment.
The remains of the old tracks and a well that serviced the hospital still exist in Underground, at the location that was once Dante's Down the Hatch. Supposedly, several phantom apparitions can be spotted at this location, though this is as of yet unconfirmed.
Either way, the area is historic, and makes for a great shopping district today!
