The El Cortez Hotel and Casino is supposedly the oldest and most haunted hotel in Las Vegas, and they're offering to pay someone $5,000 to spend a weekend GHOST HUNTING inside.

It actually sounds pretty cool.  They'll equip you with "ghost-hunting gear," like "EMF meters, EVP recorders, flashlights, and thermal sensors." Then, they'll set you free to explore the "eeriest corners," searching for signs of ghostly activity, "especially at night." You're supposed to document your experience with photos and short videos . . . and keep a journal of what you encounter, which can include scary, mysterious, or even funny moments.

If you're interested, you can fill out an application at Casino.org.  They're accepting volunteers all month. They'll announce one winner five days later . . . and that's when you'll start planning your trip, which will need to happen within the next month.

The $5,000 prize includes $800 towards airfare and travel, and $500 to cover food, drinks, and ghost-hunting equipment.

This would give me a reason to go to Vegas.....and possibly never come back???
