Quote by Jessica Marie Baumgartner

“Instead of expecting men to cater to women or become “male feminists” it would better serve everyone if women appreciated their male counterparts for the roles they take on which women can’t or won’t do.”

“I am convinced that half the world is full of stalkers. It is something everyone has done once or more if they own a social media account or have access to Google. The main reason most people look up other people is to make themselves feel happy. This concludes that half the world is not satisfied until they have compared themselves to other people. It doesn't quite make sense that we accuse others of this behavior when it goes on within most of society and everyone has done it. So don't be so upset about it if it happening to you. The only question you need to be asking is this: If I am not being stalked then what is wrong with me?”

“The more I thought about it, the more it made sense. Women are profoundly entwined with ghosts and ghost stories. There are several notions in Western culture that connect the intrinsically "female" with death. Of course, the very notion of gender is culturally constructed, just as ghosts are culturally constructed. Edith Wharton once asked, "What in the world constitutes a ghost except the fact of its being known for one." Ghosts and gender both require naming and performing, and are not at all uncomplicated, innate, or inherent things. Part of this constructed identity has to do with the cultural roles of women in the United States in the last two centuries.”

“History, and ghost stories, function for us as a kind of mediumship. We humbly ask questions of the dead to see the deeper meaning in their stories. We seek out the facts of their stories to the absolute best of our ability, as much as historical research allows. We come to inquire, to reveal, to listen, and to share these women's often forgotten, sometimes misrepresented stories. We are glad you are here on this journey with us. And to you we say the same thing we say to the ghosts who allow us to share these stories: Thank you.”
