本文提出了YouTube上越来越受欢迎的超自然现象调查作为一种新的扶手椅旅行形式，即虚拟黑暗旅游。为了支持这一发现，这项研究收集了YouTube上这种新型虚拟黑暗旅游的统计数据;揭示了超自然现象调查人员访问的最常见的黑暗旅游地点类型;并详细介绍了Sam and Colby (2014, YouTube [YouTube频道])使用的讲故事方法中典型的超自然调查类型惯例。YouTube。检索2023年3月31日https://www.youtube.com/c/samandcolby/about)，可以说这导致了它在YouTube上的高水平成功。这项研究强调了一些危险、风险，以及未来导游和研究人员对这种黑色旅游的道德考虑。它还总结了youtube用户进行超自然现象调查之旅所产生的收入方法，可以为未来的企业和内容创作者提供信息。本研究使用数字人种学进行调查，并对60个YouTube频道进行了远距离和近距离阅读，这些频道专门关注超自然现象调查(即幽灵狩猎)。
The rise of paranormal investigations as virtual dark tourism on YouTube
This paper proposes the rising popularity of paranormal investigations on YouTube as a new form of armchair travel, namely virtual dark tourism. To support this discovery, this study gathered statistics on this new genre of virtual dark tourism on YouTube; uncovered the most common types of dark tourism sites visited by paranormal investigators; and details the typical paranormal investigation genre conventions in the method of storytelling used on Sam and Colby's (2014, YouTube [YouTube Channel]. YouTube. Retrieved 31 March 2023 https://www.youtube.com/c/samandcolby/about) which arguably led to its high-level of success on YouTube. The study highlights some of the dangers, risks, and ethical considerations for future tour guides and researchers for this type of dark tourism. It also summarises the methods of income generated by YouTubers conducting paranormal investigation tours, which can be informative for future businesses and content creators. This study was investigated using digital ethnography, and distant and close reading of 60 YouTube channels which focus specifically on the niche of paranormal investigations (i.e. ghost hunting).
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Heritage Tourism ( JHT ) is a peer-reviewed, international transdisciplinary journal. JHT focuses on exploring the many facets of one of the most notable and widespread types of tourism. Heritage tourism is among the very oldest forms of travel. Activities such as visits to sites of historical importance, including built environments and urban areas, rural and agricultural landscapes, natural regions, locations where historic events occurred and places where interesting and significant living cultures dominate are all forms of heritage tourism. As such, this form of tourism dominates the industry in many parts of the world and involves millions of people. During the past 20 years, the study of tourism has become highly fragmented and specialised into various theme areas, or concentrations. Within this context, heritage tourism is one of the most commonly investigated forms of tourism, and hundreds of scholars and industry workers are involved in researching its dynamics and concepts. This academic attention has resulted in the publication of hundreds of refereed articles in various scholarly media, yet, until now there has been no journal devoted specifically to heritage tourism; Journal of Heritage Tourism was launched to fill this gap. JHT seeks to critically examine all aspects of heritage tourism. Some of the topics to be explored within the context of heritage tourism will include colonial heritage, commodification, interpretation, urban renewal, religious tourism, genealogy, patriotism, nostalgia, folklore, power, funding, contested heritage, historic sites, identity, industrial heritage, marketing, conservation, ethnicity, education and indigenous heritage.
