Sayonara paranormal fans!

"It's been a long road, getting from there to here..." as the opening titles for Star Trek: Enterprise went, and it has been for us hasn't it? We've been posting on-and-off since November 2017 and now it's time to say goodbye. As explained last post, Ghostguard news will make occasional appearances on the "Adventures in Retro" blog, which can be found at this address: https://adventuresinretro.blogspot.com/

Still, it's been fun though hasn't it? Checking out some of the greatest sightings in Ceredigion, from Xenephon Eugenedes to the big cats of Bont, from the Consti Woman to Something Strange in the TESCO Car Park (Which, by the way, was the most popular blog post we ever uploaded)

I don't want to ramble, so I'm just going to end here on a simple note. It was nice of you to come, but the party's over. Hopefully see you for some Adventures in Retro, we'll be uploading a lot more frequently that we did for this, and the posts are worded much less awkwardly than these, as we're reading over them a couple more times!

Happy Hunting friends, and hope the future finds you well.

BLOG MIGRATION!



As you could guess from the title, this blog is shutting down and all the posts will moved to a new blog called "Fede Thomas's Adventures in Retro". As you could probably guess from the title, it will not be exclusive to Ghostguard stuff, but also contain film reviews, Transformers reviews, stuff about the NES (Or Nintendo Entertainment System, if you've been living under a rock since 1985) and any other thing I think would be of any sort of interest to the Internet at large.


The website is now up and can be found at the following link address.

I apologise for not being active, but I had no time to write as I was busy revising for and passing my A Levels.

Who ya' gonna' call?


Well, we've all heard the announcement, and it has convinced me to come out of my temporary retirement and carry on with this blog.

Ghostbusters 4 is about to be released (I'm going to get some angry comments about that) and, unlike the previous film, Ghostbusters 3 or Ghostbusters: Answer the Call. it will be set in the "Original" Ghostbusters Universe.

Now, I wish this wasn't a problem, but it is. People are annoyed that the Answer the Call Ghostbusters, Erin Gilbert, Abby Yates, Jillian Holtzmann and Patty Tolan, are being cast aside in favour of a new team, possibly aided by Dan Aykroyd's Ray Stantz and Ernie Hudson's Winston Zeddemore.

However, if anyone here knows the IDW Comic series, every team of Ghostbusters exists in multiple Universes, now with an easy way of colliding. Although I think that Alternate Universes are cliché and overused nowadays, we saw in Answer the Call that there is no way the two continuities exist together, unless the '84 Ghostbusters are in hiding or something. It does add some odd questions (like what the hell would have happened to the Containment Unit?) but that's why it's a theory that isn't widely accepted.

But, the thing I am looking forward to the most is Bill Murray, not only one of my favourite comedy actors, but one of my favourite actors in general, and although he has soured on the Ghostbusters franchise since Ghostbusters 2 back in 1989, he seems to have mellowed recently. He agreed to appear in Answer the Call, and although he had an annoying character, it's still progress. It would be good if, in the new film, Venkman had also distanced himself from the Ghostbusters and had to be turned around by the end, where we could see him striding out of a smoke filled room, clad in his old beige uniform, wisecracks at the ready.

However, all speculation aside, we'll definitely see a new Ghostbusters film. Hopefully it can unite all the fans, but at the very least, I'd like it to be a good film.

Here's to the Ghostbusters, old and new, here's to the Reitmans, here's to the fans, and finally, here's to the ghosts! Happy Hunting!

Note that it's the original, not ECTO-1A or the new ECTO-1.



30 December 2018

Coming soon to a Internet Connection Point near you.


Well, as you obviously know, the December the first review never happened. This was due to, as usual, family reasons. So, I decided to take the whole month off. Lazy, I know, but it was necessary for my mental stress levels. I'm seventeen now, life ain't a cakewalk anymore.

Anyway, back to the subject. The subject being "Ghosts and stuff."

All the things I said was going to do in December, will be moved to January. The whole aim of 2019 is to improve, and actually do things with Ghostguard, instead of just forgetting it exists.

Here's to 2019, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year and all that jazz, see you then and there and finally, as always, Happy Hunting!

The new review!



Well, Thanksgiving has been and gone, the turkey (or Quorn) is all finished and the annual viewing of Planes, Trains and Automobiles has gone down a storm and now there's only a few days until the cultural madness that is December arrives. I've got quite a few plans, one involving a new video being posted on December the first! The video will remain a secret for now, but it should be good. It's different to anything I've filmed before.


This month is actually the first anniversary of the Ghostguard Blog, and the second anniversary of Ghostguard itself. I am now seventeen, and have a much greater understanding of what I can, cannot and am allowed to do in my slightly-less amateurish search for information on ghosts, aliens and other unexplained events. I am equipped with an EMF Meter, an updated video camera and a sound recorder, far more than I had in the past.  I hope I can keep going, as now my friends have lost all interest in the paranormal, I cannot investigate. NEVER investigate alone, just in case something happens to you. Fall off of a ledge and break your leg? Better hope you have mobile signal, as you went on your own!


Anyway, the new review comes on December the first. Hope to see you then, and I would like to thank all the followers and subscribers who have given me enough confidence to keep going. Thanks especially to Creepy Seven Paranormal for the bonus publicity! I know I'm sceptical about most of his videos, but I value the help you've given me.


So so long and Happy Hunting!

Getting my act together.


Believe it or not, up until this point in time, I did not have a blog upload schedule that I actually followed. As I constantly felt like I was behind or that I wasn't posting enough, which I probably wasn't, I decided to re-write my schedule. The new schedule is one post per week, most likely being posted on Sundays. There should also be a new video every month, unless something crops up.

So, the next true post will be next Sunday. Stay tuned, and Happy Hunting!
