Great, fun, and easy experience - Storyteller US Ghost Adventures Employee Review

I LOVED working for US Ghost Adventures. My job was to write and edit ghost stories as part of the script a ghost tour guide would give to their customers. The editor I worked with was fantastic--so understanding, clear with the company's expectations, and, above all, fair. The work was intense, involving deep research, and writing a certain kind of "spooky" ghost story. Because each script needed 7-10 stories, it was difficult writing new, unique stories. But as I had never worked as a storyteller, it kept me on my toes and gave me valuable experience.

Considering the intensity of the work, the pay-per-hour should be a bit higher. In addition, when I was hired, I wasn't told that the work was seasonal. In February, I was informed that the work would be ending in March. I was sooooo disappointed. Hoping to be rehired this fall.

Can make your own hours. Booking app and customer relations hotline make things easy.

Employer skims the vast majority of the ticket revenue. No pay per guest -- just a flat rate per tour regardless of how many guests are booked. Was supposed to receive a t shirt, a lantern, and EMF detectors, but they never arrived. So I run in period garb. At my own expense. I'm about to go freelance because aside from the nationally recognized name and the Xola booking app, USGA is a net negative to my bottom line.
