This weekend starts our candlelight tours at Fort Mifflin. Not only do we have a tour, we will also have Tarot readers. Lets meet one of our readers, Dana Vollmer.
Dana has been reading Tarot for about 10 years and is Reiki Level II certified. Since 2020, she has worked alongside her friend and author, Jeffrey Dengler, a paranormal investigator, helping provide insight and a different perspective when it comes to cases and unexplained experiences.

For the past year, Dana has also been appearing monthly on The Freakin Awesome Paranormal Show, doing free Tarot readings for their viewers on YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok.

Her readings are all about empathy, connection, and emotional healing. She likes to say “they’re basically therapy…except your therapist is occasionally a spirit”

You might get some answers, some validation, a little tough love from the universe, and probably a few laughs along the way. She is not here to predict doom and gloom—She’s here to help make sense of the weird, the wonderful, and everything in between.

Dana takes the paranormal seriously…just not herself.

You can find Dana on Facebook at Divination by Dana, Instagram at Divinations by Dana, or email her at [email protected].

Come out and have your tarot read by Dana this Saturday during our Candlelight tours!
