Just in time for Halloween!
I've heard of hunting for ghosts and gay ghost hunters before. My friend David was part of Maine Ghost Hunters, a group back in 2014 that traveled around Maine, well, looking for ghosts. To be honest, I didn't follow the group and their success. But I have watched several different ghost hunting shows and have not seen a ton of success. Will Queer Ghost Hunters be more successful? I would think it's hard enough to find a singular ghost, let alone specify that they are LGBT ghosts.
LGBTQ voices have always struggled to be heard, and none more than the voices of the undead.
A new web series called Queer Ghost Hunters hopes to bridge that gap. The show, produced by documentary filmmaker Stu Maddux, follows a group of LGBTQ ghost hunters, collectively known as the Stonewall Ghost Hunters, as they travel around the United States to different haunted houses, prisons and mental institutions, seeking to make contact with the queer dead.
As one of the hunters explains in the opening trailer, the filmmakers were tired of the presumption that all ghosts had to be heterosexual. LGBTQ ghosts, many of whom spent their lives in hiding, have stories that desperately need to be heard by the living. – mashable.com

Do you think this will be a hit?
Would you watch queer ghost hunting over "regular" ghost hunting?
Are there more queer ghosts than straight ones? Most likely, because we are fab-BOO-lous!
