About The Ghost Brothers:

The Ghost Brothers have spent the last six years as a team chasing ghosts. The brothers have a unique story starting with Dalen and Juwan meeting when one was a sophomore and the other a junior at the illustrious HBCU Clark Atlanta University where they were both Kappa Alpha Psi Incorporated. The two would have random spiritual conversations starting after Juwan found out Dalen’s mom was a pastor. The two become instant best friends and figuratively grew up together. In 2010, Dalen met Marcus, who was a barber in the Atlanta University Consortium, when Marcus started cutting his hair. Soon after, Dalen introduced Marcus to Juwan and the three become fast buddies. However, the idea to hunt down the paranormal came in 2010, when Dalen and Juwan became roommates after college. The premise to ghost hunt came to Dalen in a dream in 2010, around 2 a.m. in the morning. He jumped out of bed, kicked Juwan’s door down and said, “WE SHOULD HUNT GHOSTS!” They started in 2011, in Atlanta and Savannah, Georgia, filming their own stuff and putting it on YouTube to attract attention. What fascinated the guys at the time, was that they couldn’t find any people of color in the field. That intrigued them even more, and with vigor and tenacity, they kept at it. In 2014, they were contacted by a network and the rest, they say, is history. Dalen and Juwan brought Marcus in right before they filmed the pilot. Since they were all interested in the paranormal and good friends, it was a no brainer for them. Staying true to their church roots, The Ghost Brothers say a prayer before entering each situation to keep them safe. Also, being raised in the church they aren’t afraid to tackle the supernatural. They have been taught it’s a natural progression of the afterlife and that it’s nothing to play with.

NEW YORK (September 13, 2022) – Sinister hauntings and supernatural tales of terror heat up this year’s “Ghostober” with highly anticipated premieres from paranormal stars Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Jay Wasley and Billy Tolley across Travel Channel and discovery+. The scares begin with the launch of a new season of GHOST ADVENTURES on Thursday, September 15, the two-hour special GHOST ADVENTURES: DEVIL’S DEN on Thursday, September 29 and the nightmare-inducing Halloween special THE HAUNTED MUSEUM: 3 RING INFERNO, produced by Bagans in collaboration with acclaimed director Eli Roth, on Monday, October 31.

“‘Ghost Adventures’ is a staple of the Halloween season, and the investigations that Zak and the team bring to ‘Ghostober’ evoke a new caliber of fear,” said Matthew Butler, group senior vice president, Travel Channel and Paranormal Streaming Content. “Our ghost-loving fans can look forward to the biggest, scariest and most intense paranormal events to date. And for those who want even more, Zak and Eli’s Haunted Museum Halloween special, ‘3 Ring Inferno,’ is a cinematic horror experience that redefines what it means to be scared.”

In the new season of GHOST ADVENTURES, launching Thursday, September 15 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Travel Channel and discovery+, Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Billy Tolley and Jay Wasley push their boundaries to the max as they tackle their most powerful and high-stakes paranormal investigations to date. In a groundbreaking two-part episode airing on Thursday, October 20 and Thursday, October 27, the crew are the first to investigate inside Los Angeles’ infamous Los Feliz Murder House, a home with a gruesome and violent history that has been closed off for years. The team are quickly caught in the grip of a dark and dangerous presence that incites unsettling behavioral reactions and mind-blowing evidence.

The team continue their haunted journey to search for evidence of the afterlife in a two-hour “Ghostober” special, GHOST ADVENTURES: DEVIL’S DEN, premiering Thursday, September 29 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Travel Channel and discovery+. Bagans, Goodwin, Tolley and Wasley go behind the barbed wire of the shuttered Los Padrinos Juvenile Detention Center in Downey, California, a facility given the ominous designation “Devil’s Den” by both guards and inmates. During their petrifying lockdown, the crew explore the presence of a lingering dark and disturbing energy that still resides inside the building’s eerie halls, seeking to uncover whether it is from the real-life horrors of detention, or worse – the devil itself.

“Aaron, Billy, Jay and I pushed ourselves to the extreme with these investigations, physically and mentally, more than anything we’ve ever done before,” said Bagans. “There was an underlying level of evil we couldn’t evade, which was truly terrifying.”

The scares culminate on Halloween night with a tale of terror like no other as Bagans and filmmaker Eli Roth team up once again to produce the scripted two-hour special film, THE HAUNTED MUSEUM: 3 RING INFERNO, airing Monday, October 31 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Travel Channel and discovery+. Based off the concept of THE HAUNTED MUSEUM horror film anthology series that presents frightening and hellish tales inspired by the spooky relics on display in Zak Bagans’ Las Vegas museum, 3 RING INFERNO features the terrifying story of a boy and his father who steal an old suitcase from an antique market and soon discover a weathered tent inside that opens a portal to a cursed circus world from the past. In this mysterious and haunted place, they encounter a terrifying entity that will stop at nothing to capture their souls.

Bagans adds, “Creepy clowns, portals to a dark and evil circus underworld, ‘3 Ring Inferno’ hosts all the classic horror people yearn for on Halloween. It’s what nightmares are made of! And what better partner to team up with again than the incredible Eli Roth.”

In addition, Zak Bagans reprises his role in a new season of the hit series HALLOWEEN WARS, hosted by Eddie Jackson and returning Sunday, September 18 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Food Network and discovery+, as teams of cake, sugar and pumpkin artists set out to prove their skills are scary good. Bagans introduces the teams to some of the most haunted places in the world to inspire frighteningly fun and edible Halloween creations that will win one team the title of Halloween Wars Champion.

ID AND DISCOVERY+ EXPAND TRUE-CRIME PARTNERSHIP WITH ACADEMY AWARD(R) WINNER OCTAVIA SPENCER IN NEW, SIX-PART SERIES, “FEDS” (wt)

(New York, N.Y.) -The leading true-crime network ID, and its streaming home discovery+, today announced FEDS (wt), the next collaboration in a multiproject deal with acclaimed Academy Award(R) winning actress and producer Octavia Spencer, her production company Orit Entertainment and October Films. FEDS (wt), a six-part series, will take viewers deep inside America’s most elite crime-fighting agency, the FBI. The series features exclusive access to active-duty FBI agents and will detail high-profile, dangerous and unusual cases as told by agents, informants, undercover operatives and victims.

“A big part of my excitement about our partnership with ID was the opportunity to bring incredible stories to true crime fans from an entirely new perspective. FEDS (wt) is genuinely unique. As viewers, we have never been as inside the case as we are in this series. Being a true crime follower myself, speaking to active special agents with the FBI has been a thrill, and I could not be more excited to share FEDS (wt) with the ID audience, ” said Octavia Spencer, Executive Producer and Founder, Orit Entertainment.

With unparalleled access, FEDS (wt) reveals the twists and turns of each case, as agents let their guard down and for the first time, bring us into their private world. Showcasing a variety of investigations – from infiltrating MS-13 in Boston to taking down a multimillion-dollar drug empire in Florida – FEDS (wt) demonstrates the lengths the FBI goes to in order to protect citizens all across the country. Perhaps most powerfully, the series also uncovers looming tragedies that the FBI was able to thwart thanks to undercover agents and specialized intel.

“When we partnered with Octavia, we knew her passion for telling unique and powerful stories would bring our audience inside exciting new worlds of true crime storytelling,” said Jason Sarlanis, President of Crime and Investigative Content, Linear and Streaming. “Delivering unprecedented access, FEDS (wt) goes deep inside the FBI to reveal gripping, behind-the-scenes accounts of high-profile stories from the active federal agents who lived them firsthand, and we know ID’s viewers are going to love this groundbreaking approach.”

FEDS (wt) is the second project to be announced in a multipart deal for ID and discovery+ with Octavia Spencer’s Orit Entertainment and October Films. The first title announced in June, HIGHWAY 20 (3×60 wt), begins with the case of a missing 13-year-old girl and spirals into a decades-long true-crime odyssey. Inspired by the award-winning work of journalist Noelle Crombie, videographer Dave Killen and photojournalist Beth Nakamura of The Oregonian, and directed by Arianna Lapenne, the series unpacks the dark secrets of a ghostly stretch of Oregon’s U.S. Highway 20, where many women and girls went missing, were raped or murdered from the 1970s to the 1990s.

FEDS (wt) is executive produced by Octavia Spencer for Investigation Discovery and discovery+. Executive producers for Orit Entertainment are Brian Clisham and Stephanie Kluft, with Gillian Pachter and Matt Robins for October Films.
