About Me
The Victorian age was the era of spiritual awakening where people spent hours debating with others, along with themselves, on alternative beliefs. One alternative belief became popular in 1848 when the Fox Sisters began communicating with spirits, now called Spirit Circles or séances. It was also the time that tea was served and in those tea cups held the answers of the future…
Come, if you dare, to A Victorian Haunting Experience where by day Dearborn's McFadden Ross House Museum sits in all her glory with charm and elegance, but at night the moon casts shadows over the gracious mansion and it transforms into something more frightening … or at least for one night errrr..two nights- Friday, October 30 from 6:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m. and Saturday, October 31 from 6:30p.m. - 10:30 p.m.

The Scream Queen Amy of Haunted Hillsdale and Founder of The League of Extraordinary Paranormal Women!
The Scream Queens Bio:
Amy Williamson has been interested in the Paranormal from an early age, but began to formally research it at the age of 16. Amy surmises there are two types of people in the paranormal, the first is the one that had a life shattering event that was paranormal in nature, the second is the person that for some inexplicable reason seems to eat, sleep, and breathe paranormal activities. Amy considers herself to be the latter of the two! She remembers reading ghost stories at night and crawling into bed with her mother because she was afraid of the “bump†in the night. When her mother questioned her as to why did she scare herself, she didn’t know. But she knew she would never stop reading and investigating the paranormal!
While earning her Bachelors of Art in Sociology, with a minor in Psychology and Communications, Amy split the remaining time between Theater and Broadcast Journalism which encompassed being an on-air radio personality for both WOCR and ParaWomenRadio. Amy has maintained a career working with Women in the Social Services field for over 13 years. Amy proudly states that she is a social worker to the living by day and a social worker to the dead by night!
From the haunted mind of Amy Williamson sprung of The League Of Extraordinary Paranormal Women â„¢! In 2007 Amy noticed that women in the paranormal were plentiful, however it seemed that men were taking center stage. She approached the 4 other women in her paranormal group and asked what they thought about creating a group that supported and highlighted women in the paranormal. The concept of The League Of Extraordinary Paranormal Women â„¢ has a seed in the comic book superhero teams like, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Justice League of America, Legion of Super-Heroes and the Justice Society. Even the title "Extraordinary Paranormal Women" evokes Marvel's X-Men. However, the characters in THIS League are Women and mainly from stranger then true paranormal reality, not comics.
The League Of Extraordinary Paranormal Women â„¢ is for Women, about Women, and supporting Women in all areas of the Paranormal fields including investigators, authors, writers, editors, artists, filmmakers, screenwriters, actresses, and musicians. Please don't mistake us, we love our Men, however we support all Women in the paranormal here! The League Of Extraordinary Paranormal Women â„¢ also offers paranormal conferences under the sir name “A Haunting Experienceâ€, we offer hauntingly good times that includes lectures, paranormal investigations, ghost walks, seances and more! Our next “Haunting Experience†will take place in the fall of 200*, it will be our second Annual “A Victorian Haunting Experienceâ€! It will take place in a museum built in the Victorian era and will hearken back to the days of a Victorian Spiritualism Experience!
ParaWomenRadio was next born (this was a seedling from The League of Extraordinary Paranormal Women)."ParaWomenRadio, no silly girl talk about clothing and makeup here! These Dark Darlings, Amy and Beverly, delve into the bizarre, the strange, and the supernatural! With other extraordinary women in the paranormal!" Each Thursday night Amy Co/hosts ParaWomenRadio, with Beverly the Gothic Gourmet, and we have the honor of speaking with Extraordinary Women in the Paranormal (paranormal meaning just not of the "norm") that includes psychics, paranormal investigators, natural healers, hypnotherapists, actresses, artists, writers and the list goes on!
Known as the “Scream Queen†in certain circles, recently Amy has been asked on a few local TV shows in and around the Detroit Metro Area, Amy hopes to do more television (and even movies in the near future), as acting is her passion! As a side note, Amy is active in her local Community Theater (she holds a seat on the Theater Board) and has performed in many of their productions. This fall she will be directing Dial "M" for Murder!
In 2005, Amy formed a paranormal Investigation group, Haunted Hillsdale. At the same time she began filming a documentary in which she profiles the group investigating haunted locations in the county of Hillsdale Michigan. Recently the documentary has wrapped shooting and is in post production. The documentary is scheduled for screening in the winter of 2010. Amy hopes to enter the documentary, “Haunted Hillsdale, We’ll Be Seeing You In All the DARK Placesâ€, in many film festivals around the country! In addition to filming her documentary, Amy is an avid movie script writer in the genres of Horror and Off-beat Comedy; she is currently co-producing the sure to be blockbuster 2012!
Amy is available for TV and Film roles. She is interested in all media appearances whether it be TV, Radio, or even Internet! Amy is also available as a guest speaker at conferences and festivals!
