Elsie Lodde (LC Law-dee)   is a multifaceted entrepreneur and passionate advocate for the paranormal. As the owner of Bethany’s Home Sweet Haunted Home, a renowned haunted vacation destination in Jackson, CA, she has transformed her property into a must-visit location for those seeking an authentic supernatural experience. Her journey into the paranormal world began in 2021 when she purchased the haunted house with the intent of being a long-term rental, unaware that it would ignite a passion for the unexplained.

Elsie is also the visionary behind Gold Country ParaCon, an upcoming paracon September 13-15, 2024, in Jackson, CA. This gathering is set to attract paranormal enthusiasts, experts, and investigators from all over, offering a unique platform to explore the mysteries of the unknown.

In addition to her work in the paranormal field, Elsie manages the research department at a children’s hospital, and she also runs a dog rescue where she specializes in caring for special needs pups (also combining the two with a groundbreaking project providing stem cell treatment to dogs born with spina bifida).

Elsie’s love for the paranormal has taken her to some of the most haunted locations in the world, including Waverly Hills Sanatorium, Lake Shawnee Haunted Amusement Park, and Jim Jones’ childhood church. She hopes to bring this dark tourism to Jackson, CA, a historic wild west town, further showcasing the amazing paranormal activity in this small town that she loves so much.
