Why Relocate? The Story Behind the Move
The Odd Macabre Parlor has always been more than just a storefront—it’s a living, breathing entity that thrives on atmosphere. Our current space in St. Augustine has served us well, but as our community has grown and our events have expanded, we’ve found ourselves constrained by four walls that no longer match our ambitions. From cramped séance rooms to limited storage for our ever-growing collection of oddities, the need for a larger, more atmospheric location became undeniable.
But this isn’t just about square footage. We’re seeking a space with a soul—a place where the walls themselves whisper stories. St. Augustine is rich with history, and we’re determined to find a building that carries its own spectral weight. Whether it’s a former funeral parlor, a Victorian home with a tragic past, or an abandoned warehouse with unexplained cold spots, we’re open to all possibilities. The relocation is as much about preserving our identity as it is about growth.
Our patrons have always been at the heart of what we do, and this move is for you as much as it is for us. We want to create a space where you can immerse yourself fully in the macabre—a place where every creak of the floorboards adds to the experience. The journey to find that perfect home is one we’re thrilled to share with you.
What We’re Looking For: The Ideal Haunt
Finding the right location is a delicate balance of practicality and paranormal charm. We’ve compiled a list of must-haves and nice-to-haves that guide our search. While we can’t guarantee a resident ghost, we’re certainly hoping for one.
- Historical significance: Buildings with a documented past, especially those tied to St. Augustine’s darker history, are at the top of our list.
- Architectural character: Original hardwood floors, exposed brick, high ceilings, and period details that evoke a bygone era.
- Space for events: We need room for paranormal investigations, classes, author readings, and art exhibits without feeling cramped.
- A basement or attic: These spaces are perfect for storage, but also for creating immersive experiences—and they’re often hotspots for activity.
- Proximity to the historic district: Staying close to the heart of St. Augustine allows us to remain part of the community that has supported us.
- Parking and accessibility: While we love a creepy alley, we want our guests to be able to find us and park safely.
We’re also considering spaces that might need renovation. A fixer-upper with the right bones could be transformed into the ultimate macabre parlor, and we’re not afraid of a little (or a lot) of work. The journey to find this space is one we’re documenting in real time on The Odd MacabreCast.
How You Can Be Part of the Search
The Odd MacabreCast is more than just a behind-the-scenes look—it’s an interactive experience. As a patron, you’ll have a say in the decisions we make. We’ll be sharing photos and videos of potential locations, and we’ll ask for your input on everything from layout to décor. Your voice matters, and we want this new space to feel like it belongs to all of us.
Here’s how you can get involved:
- Follow us on Patreon: Gain access to exclusive content, including virtual tours of properties we’re considering.
- Subscribe on YouTube: Watch full-length episodes of our search, complete with interviews and on-site investigations.
- Listen to the Podcast: Hear our candid conversations about the challenges and triumphs of relocating a paranormal business.
- Share your own stories: If you know of a haunted property in St. Augustine that might be available, we want to hear about it!
We believe that the best decisions are made together. By joining The Odd MacabreCast, you’re not just a spectator—you’re a co-creator of the next chapter of the Parlor.
The Challenges of Moving a Haunted Business
Relocating any business is a logistical puzzle, but moving a paranormal-focused establishment comes with its own unique set of challenges. For one, we have a vast collection of artifacts, books, and oddities that require careful packing and transport. Some of these items are fragile, some are irreplaceable, and a few are, shall we say, energetically sensitive. We’re taking extra precautions to ensure everything arrives safely—and without any unwanted attachments.
Then there’s the question of the spirits. While we don’t claim that our current location is haunted, we’ve certainly had our share of unexplained occurrences. Whether those energies will follow us to a new space remains to be seen. We’ll be documenting any paranormal activity during the move itself, and we’re curious to see if the transition stirs up anything unusual.
Another challenge is maintaining our event schedule during the transition. We’re committed to continuing our classes and investigations as much as possible, even if it means hosting them in temporary locations. Our patrons have been incredibly understanding, and we’re grateful for your patience as we navigate this process.
What the Future Holds for the New Parlor
Once we find our new home, the possibilities are endless. We envision a space that not only houses our current offerings but also allows us to expand in exciting new directions. Imagine a permanent paranormal investigation room equipped with the latest ghost-hunting technology, a library of rare occult books, and a gallery for macabre art. We’re also dreaming of a small theater for film screenings and live performances.
We’re committed to preserving the intimate, quirky charm that made the original Parlor so beloved. The new location will still be a place where you can browse oddities, attend a séance, or simply sit and share ghost stories with like-minded souls. But it will also be a hub for the paranormal community—a place where researchers, artists, and enthusiasts can come together.
We’re also exploring partnerships with local businesses and historical sites. St. Augustine is a treasure trove of haunted history, and we want to be a gateway to those experiences. Whether it’s a ghost tour collaboration or a joint event with a local museum, we’re excited about the possibilities.
Stay Connected and Join the Journey
We can’t do this without you. The Odd MacabreCast is our way of bringing you along on every step of this adventure, and we hope you’ll join us. Your support—whether through Patreon, YouTube, or simply spreading the word—makes a real difference. Together, we’ll find the perfect new home for the Odd Macabre Parlor.
In the meantime, we’ll continue to share updates on our website and social media. If you’re in the St. Augustine area, keep an eye out for us at local events—we’d love to hear your thoughts in person. And if you have a lead on a haunted property, don’t hesitate to reach out. The journey is just beginning, and we’re thrilled to have you with us.
Thank you for being part of the Odd Macabre family. Here’s to the next chapter—may it be as wonderfully weird as the last.
