Paranormal Attraction in New Orleans Opens

In the heart of New Orleans, America’s most haunted city, the PARAPLEX prepares for its grand opening on Saturday, January 24, 2009 with the world’s first-of-its-kind, multi-million-dollar paranormal complex attraction. The PARAPLEX will offer locals, tourists, and conventioneers a completely unique, unusual, and exciting all-sense experience while delving into the mysterious world of the paranormal.

The high-tech paranormal complex will include paranormal art galleries, hands-on interactive psychic testing exhibits, a simulated seance room, a Ghost Experience Simulator, and its own on-site theater for workshops, documentaries, and feature film screenings. The PARAPLEX is located throughout a completely remodeled, 14,000-square-foot historic and haunted mansion built in the late 1800’s as a private residence and later a funeral home.

“We are proud and excited to be able to add to the economic growth and development of New Orleans with this new, one-of-a-kind attraction. Inquiries from all over the world have started to come in regarding the opening of the PARAPLEX, which will serve as an anchor attraction at the foot of Canal Street, only three miles from the French Quarter. We are confident that it will be a ‘must-see’ destination attraction for both locals and tourists of all ages seeking an exciting and entertaining experience,” commented mansion owner, Jeff Borne.

The hi-tech PARAPLEX with its arsenal of cameras of varying formats, will monitor and record all paranormal phenomena 24/7 and document interactions between the mansion’s resident entities (ghosts) and PARAPLEX visitors.

Dr. Larry Montz, 37-year veteran field parapsychologist, stated: “Twenty years after creating the concept, it is thrilling to bring my vision of the PARAPLEX to life in New Orleans, a city known for world-class attractions. Parapsychology and paranormal research is now an integral part of pop culture, and the PARAPLEX will cater to the millions in their quest for information and experiences within the paranormal realm. The continuously evolving PARAPLEX is destined to become a premiere attraction internationally, offering a signature blend of interactive paranormal education and entertainment.”

The PARAPLEX Annex, located at 718 Orleans, is the French Quarter campus of the PARAPLEX, offering a full slate of paranormal reality events including Ghost/Parapsychology Expeditions, Psychic Boot Camp, UFO & Ghost Hunters, Nighttime Swamp Investigations, and the exclusive new tour, Anne Rice’s Vampires & Other Supernatural Beings.

Dinner in the Sky Comes to Las Vegas

Earlier this month, Dinner in the Sky Las Vegas made its debut as a high-flying Sky Box that takes 22 guests to a viewing height of up to 180 feet. The 22 guests are each comfortably strapped into a leather seat that is secured to a dining table. The dining table and seats are connected to a crane, which then performs the lift. The Dinner in the Sky experience is set to last for approximately one hour per session. The center of the dining table has a walking platform that can accommodate up to five service personnel for the purpose of serving food and beverages, taking pictures, conducting meetings or presenting product launches. All menus, from a sit down four-course meal to a tasting/cocktail session, are provided and included in the overall price of each package. With no fixed bill of fare, Dinner in the Sky Las Vegas will serve everything from sushi and lobster to prime rib and chops and is only limited by your imagination and budget. All meals are prepared “in the sky” by one to three chefs stationed in the middle of the table. For more information visit www.dinnerintheskylv.com.
