The event is part of the group's 2024 Paranormal Palooza Halloween season tour and will feature psychic medium Lesley Ann Hyde alongside the Southern Ghost Girls professional paranormal investigation team.

Participants will have the opportunity to use real paranormal investigation equipment like the tools seen on television in addition to the chance to participate in an interactive ghost hunt at the Drish House.

The ghost gun will then be followed by a bonus investigation at the nearby cemetery where the Drish family is buried, with attendees responsible for their own transportation.

The Drish House — located at 2300 17th Street — is a stuccoed brick mansion built in 1837 that has a long history of purported hauntings.

Made famous by Kathryn Tucker Windham's story in "13 Alabama Ghosts and Jeffrey," the mansion has been reported to exhibit supernatural phenomena such as ghostly lights and mysterious fires in the third-story tower.

Organizers say the ghost hunt will proceed rain or shine and tickets are non-refundable, though credits may be issued for future events if notice is given more than 24 hours before the event.
