haunted forum
pervulgum forum


Explanation:
pervulgo (pervolgo) -are : to publish , make publicly known; to make generally available; to frequent, haunt a place.

You could also say remorsum forum since remordeo -mordere -morsum: to worry , haunt although I don't like it really.

By the way the word forum is latin itself so it stays as is (in case you were wondering). If you wanted also to say haunted forums (plural) then you can say pervulga fora.
