Company information

Your hosts have opened their unique home to all guests, but particularly those who are fond of the paranormal, the strange and the odd. Join us for chats about ghosts and paranormal experiences in the beautiful Victorian-style library or pull up a chair at breakfast and learn about the history of Tampa and the unique design choices of our home. If you want a break from the paranormal, Steve and Tim are interested in discussing fitness, food, movies, entertainment and music. Steve is a former newspaper reporter who also works in Public Relations. He's also worked as a ghost tour guide in Tampa and is well versed in all things related to Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, since he works as a VIP tour guide there during the park's annual Howl-O-Scream event. Tim is a musician by trade and is well known in the world of the marching arts. The "Beast of the Marching Arts" has created shows for bands across the United States and has won numerous awards for his work. When he's not working in the music world, Tim is likely exploring Florida theme parks. If you are planning a visit to Disney World, Tim can give you expert advice on how to navigate the parks.
