As the superior creators of this genre, the streaming service and network announce today a full slate of new series, specials and seasons of the most terrifying television with the buzziest and most prolific talent in the business. A development deal with paranormal investigator Zak Bagans, multiple projects frommaster of horror Eli Roth and paranormal investigator Jack Osbourne and a new show starring global pop superstar Kesha anchor the schedule with series and specials debuting throughout 2022. And our party shifts into high gear in the fall, when the fifth annual Ghostober celebration kicks off with spooky, scary programs that even bleed into our sister networks.

“Travel Channel and discovery+ have tapped into what paranormal and horror fans love the most – a huge slate of brand-new content from some of their favorite stars of the genre,” says Matthew Butler, group senior vice president, Travel Channel and paranormal streaming content. “Our fans are true believers, and they can’t get enough of this type of entertainment that brings the chills and thrills, whether it’s on television or streaming into their homes.”

Bringing the creepies all year long is what fans of Travel Channel and discovery+ expect, and this summer will surely not disappoint. The enduring franchise GHOST ADVENTURES returns for more terrifying lockdowns with paranormal investigators Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Billy Tolley and Jay Wasley. The supernatural has long interested Grammy-nominated global pop superstar Kesha, and in her new exclusive series for discovery+, CONJURING KESHA, she brings along some of her famous friends on a personal journey to uncover the unknown. Jack Osbourne and the Ghost Brothers go for round two of FRIGHT CLUB, where they elevate the chills and cheers with the craziest paranormal videos they can find. And JACK OSBOURNE’S NIGHT OF TERROR features two new installments – first Osbourne goes in search of the elusive Bigfoot with his friend Jason Mewes and later looks for aliens with Mewes and Jamie Kennedy. Both comedy and scares ensue.

The ultimate Halloween celebrations return with the fifth annual GHOSTOBER programming event featuring frightening premieres every night of the week, all month long. All the stars of paranormal combine in one monstrous month of mayhem – from Zak Bagans and the crew in their annual GHOST ADVENTURES HALLOWEEN special and new, surprising editions of discovery+’s SHOCK DOCS franchise to new seasons of GHOST BROTHERS: LIGHTS OUT, DESTINATION FEAR and, of course, GHOST HUNTERS with Jason Hawes, Steve Gonsalves, Dave Tango and Shari DeBenedetti.

Finally, discovery+ and Travel Channel will not take a calming breath, because the thrills will continue throughout 2022-2023 with more returning fan favorites. Former NYPD homicide detective Steve DiSchiavi and physical medium Amy Allan are back on the paranormal case in a new season of THE DEAD FILES. Real-life hauntings get retold by the master of horror in the second season of ELI ROTH PRESENTS: A GHOST RUINED MY LIFE. Eli Roth and Zak Bagans join forces again in the second season of The HAUNTED MUSEUM. And our intrepid team is currently back in the field searching for everyone’s favorite cryptid in season four of EXPEDITION BIGFOOT.

Fans of the genre are also binging on podcasts including URBAN LEGENDS WITH THE GHOST BROTHERS and a companion show to the hit series A GHOST RUINED MY LIFE WITH ELI ROTH. Upcoming companion podcasts will include THE DEAD FILES, MYSTERIES AT THE MUSEUM and THE ALASKA TRIANGLE.

JACK OSBOURNE’S NIGHT OF TERROR: BIGFOOT

For years, Jack Osbourne and his friend, actor Jay Mewes, have been curious about the existence of the legendary creature known as Sasquatch, Yeti or most commonly, Bigfoot. Now, they’re venturing into a remote region of northern Idaho, the site of the most reported Bigfoot sightings over the last half century, to figure out for themselves if Bigfoot is truly an undiscovered creature of North America’s wilderness or simply an age-old legend run wild.

JACK OSBOURNE’S NIGHT OF TERROR: UFOs

Jack Osbourne brings his friends, actors Jay Mewes and Jamie Kennedy, to the edge of the unknown in search of the truth behind UFOs.

SHOCK DOCS: MICHIGAN HELL HOUSE

It is the greatest paranormal story the public has never heard.

Returning Series:

THE DEAD FILES

Former NYPD homicide detective Steve DiSchiavi and physical medium Amy Allan are back on the paranormal case. Utilizing his detective skills, DiSchiavi interviews witnesses and experts and researches the history and facts behind each haunted location.

ELI ROTH PRESENTS: A GHOST RUINED MY LIFE

From master of horror Eli Roth, this chilling series shares the shocking stories of real-life hauntings that have left emotional (and sometimes physical) scars on those unlucky enough to have experienced them.

GHOST ADVENTURES

Paranormal investigators Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Billy Tolley and Jay Wasley continue their travels to haunted destinations where they meet with locals, eyewitnesses and experts in an attempt to piece together the haunted history of each site.

Ghost Adventures: Cecil Hotel (two-hour special)

Stationed along downtown Los Angeles’ Main Street stands the infamous Cecil Hotel with a checkered past, beset by multiple suicides, murders, devil worshipping and serial killers. Riddled with stories of paranormal activity, the historic building is the epitome of creepy – an inspiration for books, films and even a season of the “American Horror Story” series.

The Ghost Adventures team – Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Jay Wasley and Billy Tolley – begin their investigation retracing the steps of the recent mysterious death of a young girl named Elisa Lam, whose body was found in the hotel’s water tower without any explanation as to what may have happened.

Two-Hour Special GHOST ADVENTURES: CECIL HOTEL Launches Monday, January 4, 2021, Exclusively on the All-New discovery+ Streaming Service
NEW YORK (December 9, 2020) – Stationed along downtown Los Angeles’ Main Street stands an infamous hotel with a checkered past beset by multiple suicides, murders, devil worshipping and serial killers. Perhaps it is most known for the recent mysterious death of a young girl named Elisa Lam, whose body was found in the hotel’s water tower without any explanation as to what may have happened. Her peculiar demise remains unsolved, and bizarre elevator surveillance video of Lam has fueled an abundance of theories, including that of supernatural forces. Now, for the first time ever, the Cecil Hotel is allowing cameras inside for an investigation of ghostly proportions in the two-hour special, GHOST ADVENTURES: CECIL HOTEL, launching on Discovery, Inc.’s new discovery+ streaming service beginning Monday, January 4, 2021. The special will be available exclusively to discovery+ subscribers and is one of the featured marquee programs launching with the new platform. For more information on discovery+, please visit discoveryplus.com.

“It doesn’t get bigger and more sinister than this,” said Zak Bagans, lead paranormal investigator. “We’ve been trying to get inside these rooms for more than a decade, so this is really a big deal – the first-ever paranormal investigation in the Cecil Hotel. It has a dark history and reputation and it’s one of the heaviest places we’ve ever been in. This is not your average hotel. With its connection to serial killer Richard Ramirez and the disturbing death of Elisa Lam, it’s undeniable that there are spirits inside this building. But the question is who, or what, are they.”

The Cecil Hotel has a history of seedy activity and housing transients, drug dealers and even serial killers. Richard Ramirez, the “Night Stalker,” was a self-proclaimed devil worshipper rumored to have carried out some of his murder spree while living in the hotel during the 1980s. Riddled with stories of paranormal activity, the historic building is the epitome of creepy – an inspiration for books, films and even a season of the “American Horror Story” series. In 2013, it was the site of one of the most chilling mysteries of the 21st century, when the body of college student Elisa Lam was found in one of the hotel’s rooftop water tanks. The only clue was disturbing security camera footage of Lam exhibiting odd behavior inside the hotel elevator right before her untimely disappearance and death. The incident remains a mystery and questions linger about how Lam got in the tank – and whether it was a person, or a darker force, that drew her there.

The GHOST ADVENTURES team – Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Jay Wasley and Billy Tolley – begin their investigation by retracing the steps of Elisa Lam. Calling in psychic mediums Michael and Marti Parry for assistance, they investigate the room she was staying in, the water tower where she was found and even the elevator where she was last seen. They’re convinced there’s more to this property, and it might be because of one of its most famous former inhabitants – killer Richard Ramirez. Could it be that Ramirez’s devil worshipping rituals opened up the Cecil Hotel to a demonic infestation that could have affected Lam? As the crew explore Ramirez’s old room, they make startling connections with what may be his dark energy. But the list of figures who could be contributing to the hotel’s hauntings extends beyond just Lam and Ramirez. As they go deeper into their investigation, the team experience physical afflictions, including unexplained scratches, and some of the most frightening and compelling audio and visual evidence they’ve ever captured – leading them to believe that the many dark forces at this hotel are still very much alive.

“Ghost Adventures” Team Carry Out the First-Ever Paranormal Investigation





Murder, Mayhem and Madness Take on a Whole New Meaning When Zak Bagans and the “Ghost Adventures” Team Carry Out the First-Ever Paranormal Investigation Inside the Infamous Joe Exotic Zoo

MURDER, MAYHEM AND MADNESS TAKE ON A WHOLE NEW MEANING WHEN ZAK BAGANS AND THE “GHOST ADVENTURES” TEAM CARRY OUT THE FIRST-EVER PARANORMAL INVESTIGATION INSIDE THE INFAMOUS JOE EXOTIC ZOO

Two-Hour Special ‘Ghost Adventures: Horror at Joe Exotic Zoo’ Premieres Thursday, October 29 at 9 p.m. ET/PT
NEW YORK (October 9, 2020) – The cat’s out of the bag – the Joe Exotic Zoo is haunted. As the world has recently witnessed, the Greater Wynnewood Animal Park has a history marred by tragedy and drama. But believe it not, there’s another chapter in this sensational saga. Park staff regularly experience mysterious and unexplained activity, which they are sure is connected to the park’s ill-reputed events. Now, the “Ghost Adventures” crew – Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Jay Wasley and Billy Tolley – have been called to investigate, breaking new ground with the first-ever paranormal investigation inside the Oklahoma park. Travel Channel’s two-hour special, “Ghost Adventures: Horror at Joe Exotic Zoo,” premieres Thursday, October 29 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. It’s an undertaking like no other for the group, teeming with shocking stories and discoveries, cadaver dogs and undeniable paranormal evidence.

“This investigation was wild from beginning to end. We went into it thinking we knew a little about this story already, but there were so many surprises at every turn,” said Bagans. “It’s a super-charged location and it felt surreal to be there. This special has all the drama, characters and twists that you would expect in any Joe Exotic story. But just when you think you’ve seen and heard it all, there’s more.”

Something sinister lurks in the shadows of this park. In exclusive interviews, Jeff and Lauren Lowe, who purchased the zoo from Joe Exotic in 2016, reveal rumors and stories about the notorious grounds, including allegations of murder. Employees also believe the spirit of Travis Maldonado, who tragically and accidentally killed himself inside the park, still lingers and appears in the form of a dark mist. As Bagans and the crew speak with park staff – including Erik Cowie and Allen Glover, well-known characters from the documentary – they learn new details about the park’s story, and experience unexplained encounters that creep even these guys out: apparitions, shadow figures, voices and mysterious light phenomena.

It’s a beast of a case and the team calls in the big guns for assistance. Engineer Bill Chappell will conduct the biggest audio experiment he’s ever performed for an investigation, spanning the park’s entire perimeter. To investigate the alleged claims of buried bodies, they bring in a forensic team to search the property for evidence. The park is awash with activity from the get-go, and it’s inside Joe Exotic’s former cabin that they capture astonishing evidence that may prove Travis’ spirit is still around. But when the cadaver dogs get a possible hit for human remains and the investigation gets shut down by police, the real digging begins. As the dogs return a second time and the “Ghost Adventures” team captures three distinct EVPs in the areas of question, they’re convinced there is more to this story.
