Richmond Haunts Media, an editorial project of Richmond Historic Haunts LLC, is committed to making our website and media archive welcoming and accessible to as many people as reasonably possible, including people with disabilities.
Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We welcome feedback when visitors encounter a barrier or need assistance accessing an episode, article, video, or other information.
Our Accessibility Approach
We aim to use the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at Level AA as a guide for improving the usability and accessibility of this website.
Our ongoing efforts include seeking to provide:
- Clear page titles, headings, and content organization.
- Keyboard-accessible navigation and controls.
- Visible keyboard focus indicators.
- Meaningful text alternatives for informative images.
- Readable text and appropriate color contrast.
- Descriptive links and understandable labels.
- Layouts that adapt to different screen sizes and levels of magnification.
- Content that works with commonly used browsers and assistive technologies.
Because websites, browsers, assistive technologies, and third-party services continue to change, we cannot guarantee that every page or feature will be fully accessible in every situation. We review the website and address accessibility concerns as they are identified.
Video, Audio, and Captions
Richmond Haunts Media publishes video and audio-focused material through YouTube and displays YouTube players within episode pages.
Captions may be available through the embedded YouTube player. Caption availability and accuracy can vary by video, particularly for older recordings, proper names, historic terminology, and place names. Complete transcripts or audio descriptions may not currently be available for every episode.
When available, the YouTube player allows viewers to activate captions and adjust certain caption-display settings. Visitors may also follow the “Watch on YouTube” link if using YouTube directly provides a more accessible experience.
If you encounter difficulty accessing information presented in an episode, please contact us. We will make a good-faith effort to identify a reasonable way to address the barrier. Depending on the content and request, that may include improving or clarifying captions, describing important visual information, providing a written summary, answering questions about particular material, or offering another reasonably available format.
We do not guarantee that separate transcripts or audio descriptions are available for every episode.
Images and Archival Material
We seek to provide meaningful alternative text for images that communicate information. Decorative images may be left without descriptive alternative text so that they do not create unnecessary interruptions for screen-reader users.
Some older, third-party, or archival images may have incomplete descriptions or limited source information. We welcome feedback when an image needs a clearer or more useful description.
Third-Party Services and Content
Some website features and content are supplied or operated by third parties. These include YouTube video players and may include social-media platforms, linked source material, historic sites, tourism resources, and other independently operated websites.
We do not control the accessibility of these third-party services, and their features may change without our knowledge. If you encounter difficulty using a third-party feature connected with our content, please contact us. We will make a good-faith effort to provide the information you need or help identify another reasonable way to access it.
