Paranormal Excursions and Adventures' spook scholars escort ghost hunters on daring forays into the beyond during high-tech, three-hour tours of the Brazoria Schoolhouse. Each hair-raising tour begins with a 30- to 45-minute Q&A session. Then, the expert spirit seekers lead guests equipped with their own recording devices to ghost hiding spots and avoid ghost squirrel nests. Tour guides suit up with specialty equipment including Mel meters, electronic voice-phenomenon recorders, and spirit boxes to facilitate interdimensional communication that is less time-consuming than learning to speak ghost. The troupe wanders the schoolhouse—built in 1932—and the two main buildings, auditorium, and lunchroom, which house artifacts from the Civil War and Chenango Plantation. In the past, visitors to Brazoria have seen the ghost of a 7–8 year old girl, and disembodied voices have haunted ears with wails and wet willies for decades. Participants are encouraged to bring their own video cameras or photography equipment to capture their own eerie evidence.
The highly trained technicians at Jiffy Lube tend to about 24 million customers each year with services such as the Jiffy Lube Signature Service Oil-Change, which helps promote the longevity of each vehicle. Staffers acknowledge that oil plays a crucial role in maximizing the lifespan of each car—it cools the motor and helps prevent moving parts from deteriorating. More than 20,000 technicians who have completed an extensive training program certified by the National Institute Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) service vehicles at Jiffy Lube.
In addition to performing oil changes, technicians perform preventative services such as air-filtration, among others, as well as state emissions inspections. Jiffy Lube’s quality pledge includes a commitment to transparency, which stipulates that they will inform car owners of any necessary services, complete a service only after it has been approved, and refuse to replace windshields with saran wrap.
