We received a comment today and several angry emails from someone who obviously feels we're using the little girl spirit for our own "money making" ends. We do wish to make a living like anyone else, but that goal is from the Ghost Walk story which has a fictional character named Lela who is based on the real spirit we call 'Lela'. We don't know her real name but we do understand from several medium contacts she died tragically.

Nothing could be further from the truth that we are holding her back or using her for money. You would only need to talk to any of us to know how broke this staff is. But I'm wondering if there are others who feel this way? Our goal is to help Lela and any spirits (whether or not they are a child) to be free. But we know from experience, you cannot force a spirit into freedom. Things aren't as easy as some shows and spiritualists state. As in any facet of life or death, we can only help to guide the person or spirit. It is always that person's choice.

I don't claim to have all the answers, but I can tell you I do not keep 'Lela' here. She chooses where she is or goes of her own free will. I have never held her back and neither have any of my staff. We don't have the power to command her as this lady must feel she does. It is our goal to free her as soon as she will or can go.

Without further ado, the angry comment:

He/She that hurts but a hair on these little ones, face the millstone around their neck, t0 be dropped into the deepest most fathomless sea!
I AM MOVING that little girl into the light - whether you like it or not!
You have been holding her back from her journey!
There will be an absent space now, because she has given you her journey, and more than you should ever demand from the spirit of a lost child!
Do you really want to experience hell when you reach the OTHER SIDE?
We don't know for sure, but you are not to exploit the lost babies again!
I will take over if you do, and I'll feel it, long before you put this on your groovy website!

It is so easy to cast judgement on another without knowing the facts. She says she cares so much but could not even spell her name correctly. Why not try talking to others before assigning blame? She did say one thing correctly: "We don't know for sure", but there are none of my staff who would ever exploit any babies. Most of us are parents and cherish children! Lela is the one who wishes to get her story told. We didn't seek her. She sought us. If she could move her into the light, we would all be thrilled! I can tell you that type anger will only cause Lela to hide from anyone who would attempt any force. She needs love, not more anger; especially against those who she loves and knows. This has only angered many parents who dearly love children. We love and cherish Lela. We want her free more than this woman ever will.

Will we let this kind of negativity stop us? Never! Why not be a friend who shows up to be positive and help us instead of attacking us?

It saddens me that people so easily jump to accuse others. Please get your story straight. That is all we ask of anyone.

Thanks for saying we have a "groovy website". We think so too.

We live in a world where mostly everything we see and hear is decided upon by mass media corporations. Everything from books to movies and even the news we see on television is controlled by huge media conglomerates. There are stories and brilliant storytellers that will never see the light of day on a book store shelf. One person that will not go quietly into that dark night is Rocky Karlage.

Rocky Karlage has a vision. This vision lives by the name of Ghost Walk. Mr. Karlage has started a grassroots campaign to bring his story to the masses who ache for a great American fable filled with mystery and intense, capturing characters.

Ghost Walk is a labor of love based on Rocky's own supernatural experiences. Rocky Karlage grew up in Ohio in a small town outside of Cincinnati. This is where Rocky first met the spirit of the little girl who has changed his life forever. She is now an intricate part of Ghost Walk.

Ghost Walk is a story set in Victorian Ohio during the 1890's. Visitors to the story are welcomed into the world of Lane Estate. There you will meet a host of rich and captivating characters that are just dying to tell you their story. The Ladies Three, the children and the Romy Caravan are waiting to pull the reader into their world and embrace them in the dark cloak of what cannot be explained or understood. Mr. Karlage has masterfully blurred the lines between reality and the unknown.

Rocky is not alone in this grassroots journey. He has assembled a group of creative people and hardworking volunteers who work without end to bring this tale to the masses. These people believe in this vision and will not rest until Ghost Walk is known by all. Mr. Karlage is grateful for everything his hard working group has done thus far to move the Ghost Walk vision forward.

When a storyteller has a message to share with people he or she should not be silenced. Even when the door of the mass media corporations are closed the window to the grassroots movement is opened. Rocky Karlage is one person who has not been discouraged by the immensity of his journey. If anything he has grown and prospered from it. It has obviously shown through in his tale of Ghost Walk. This is merely the beginning. Many great things are on the horizon for Ghost Walk. You can learn more about Ghost Walk by visiting www.ghostwalklive.com .
