NEW YORK (September 22, 2022) – The Ghost Brothers are back on the haunt with the much anticipated second season of GHOST BROTHERS: LIGHTS OUT on discovery+. Joining the Ghostober programming line-up, Dalen Spratt, Juwan Mass and Marcus Harvey flip the switch on paranormal lore by shining their own light on its darkest secrets. These candid and unorthodox paranormal investigators explore iconic haunted hotspots to find out if the legends are really true and if these places are still plagued by the horror of the events that occurred there. They are ready to expose the haunted holdouts hanging around these locations with unconventional experiments. The eight one-hour episodes of GHOST BROTHERS: LIGHTS OUT premiere on discovery+ with a terrifying three-episode binge on Friday, October 7, and then a weekly episodic rollout on Fridays.

In the new season, the paranormal investigators visit some of the most iconic haunted locations including: the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, Ohio, where they confront entities from the past; the legendary Bobby Mackey’s Music World Nightclub; and the Perron family farmhouse, the location that inspired the feature film, “The Conjuring.” The Ghost Brothers are seeking the truth in the spiritual realm and won’t rest until they uncover what haunts these locations.

“This is honestly the first time that I think we’ve taken things a bit too far … and that says a lot coming from me,” said Spratt.

“This is about to be the greatest season of Lights Out! This time me and Juwan got payback on Dalen. These are the nation’s freakiest locations! Get ready for the craziness,” stated Harvey.

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.

Lineup Includes a New Season of GHOST ADVENTURES, New Special GHOST ADVENTURES: DEVIL’S DEN, THE HAUNTED MUSEUM: 3 RING INFERNO and More

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.

AN ELITE TEAM OF PARANORMAL INVESTIGATORS RACE TO HELP A PETRIFIED WESTERN TOWN IN THE NEW SERIES, “GHOSTS OF DEVIL’S PERCH,” PREMIERING SUNDAY, AUGUST 21 ON TRAVEL CHANNEL AND DISCOVERY+
NEW YORK (Tuesday, July 19, 2022) – A mystery is buried beneath the streets of Butte, Montana, and the spirits tethered to the historic mining town’s past are rising to the surface with clues. The discovery of copper in the 1880s turned Butte’s Copper Barons into some of the wealthiest men in America. But the hills that glittered in the sun could also cast sinister shadows of greed and vice at night. This led some to brand the mountain town “The Devil’s Perch.” With the town now intent on rebuilding its image, it seems every renovation project is digging up a paranormal nightmare with residents and businesses reporting terrifying ghostly encounters. In an unlikely partnership, Mayor J.P. Gallagher and Sheriff Ed Lester have called in an elite team of paranormal investigators to help. When investigator Dave Schrader, tech expert K.D. Stafford and psychic medium Cindy Kaza arrive in Butte, they find paranormal activity that startles even them. The all-new Travel Channel series, “Ghosts of Devil’s Perch,” premieres on Sunday, August 21 at 9 p.m. ET/PT with the same-day release on discovery+.

The team unearths disturbances ranging from feuds between rival mine owners to lovers resorting to violence to vice-fueled horrors lurking in the town’s past. As the disturbing cases begin to form a pattern, the team discovers an army of trapped spirits crying for help, and they refocus their efforts on finding who or what is causing so much anguish. Resorting to threats and violence, the dark entity beneath Butte goes on the attack. The spiritual awakening is in full force and quickly forces the team to question if they’ll make it out of Devil’s Perch unharmed.

“Towns around the nation frequently approach us, desperate to resolve lingering, unexplained disturbances and lay them to rest. When we heard about the disturbances in the small town of Butte, we knew they needed an elite team of paranormal investigators. We immediately reached out to our expert trio, Dave, Cindy and K.D., to confront whatever forces reside there. In ‘Ghosts of Devil’s Perch,’ we explore its rich history to unlock the town’s fear. Along the way, we lay witness to a few surprises,” said Matthew Butler, group senior vice president, Travel Channel and Paranormal Streaming Content.

Will the town continue to be haunted by spirits of the past or will it finally break free?

About the Team

Cindy Kaza is a psychic medium who had her first memorable encounter with a spirit when she was just 10 years old. She dismissed this chilling experience as just a dream until her early 20s, when she realized she was continually having psychically spiritual experiences. Since this “awakening,” Kaza has been searching for the truth about her gifts and testing the limits of her multifaceted abilities, including “automatic writing,” in which she allows the dead to communicate directly through her via free-form writing. Kaza has trained at England’s renowned Arthur Findlay School of Intuitive Sciences and now travels across America providing people startling evidence and messages from the dead.

Dave Schrader is an experienced paranormal investigator and host of the popular paranormal podcast, The Paranormal 60 with Dave Schrader. From an early age, Schrader has been surrounded by the strange and anomalous, from haunted homes to creature sightings, UFO encounters and more. Schrader invites you along on his journey and thanks you for taking him along on yours. Never a casual observer, Schrader pushes claims of the paranormal to the limits by investigating them himself and visiting some of the most active and haunted locations in the world, just like his paranormal inspiration, Dr. Hans Holzer. Schrader is also the co-author of the book “The Other Side” and has been featured on several hit paranormal television series, including “Ghost Adventures,” “Paranormal Challenge,” “Paranormal State,” “Fright Club” and “Haunted Hospitals” as well as the lead investigator on “The Holzer Files” and on the Shock Doc, “The Curse of Lizzie Borden”.

K.D. Stafford is known as the “paranormal mad scientist.” Stafford uses advances in technology to build better paranormal research equipment that pushes the envelope. He has built ghost helmets that allow everyday people to heighten their sixth sense and also built advanced scrying mirrors that use LED lights to see spirits and the most advanced ghost boxes on the market. Stafford is a U.S. Army veteran with nearly eight years in service as a combat equipment technician and noncommissioned officer. In the army, he was exposed to maintaining mechanical and electronic systems in high-tech combat vehicles, and he found an interest in electronics and microcomputers. Stafford’s passion for the paranormal began in his early childhood. He has always loved investigating and studying unusual occurrences. Stafford is now on a mission to use technology to find answers to the spooky and unexplained.

[via press release from Discovery, Inc.]
GLOBAL POP SUPERSTAR KESHA SEARCHES FOR THE SUPERNATURAL WITH HER FAMOUS FRIENDS IN “CONJURING KESHA” – THE OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD NEW SERIES FROM DISCOVERY+ PREMIERING ON FRIDAY, JULY 8

Comedian Whitney Cummings and Musician Betty Who Join Kesha in the First Two Episodes
NEW YORK (June 2, 2022) – Grammy(R)-nominated singer songwriter and global pop superstar Kesha has a message for everyone that shares her deep passion for all things supernatural and paranormal: “Let’s go!” Now, in CONJURING KESHA, streaming on discovery+ beginning Friday, July 8, she expands her understanding of the universe, journeying deep into the heart of darkness, all while checking off her paranormal bucket list. In the six one-hour episodes, Kesha explores the nation’s biggest mysteries, haunted locations and supernatural phenomena with exciting celebrity guests and experts in the unexplained. Two episodes drop Friday, July 8 and the four subsequent episodes premiere weekly on Fridays through August 5. Check out the trailer HERE.

“To me, the supernatural comes naturally,” said Kesha. “It started with my insatiable curiosity, my eternal searching for something bigger than myself. This has motivated my art, informed my music and has given a purpose to my entire life. It’s an eternal search for proof of God. But it’s the adventures that I have with my friends that take these pilgrimages to the next level and make them a reality. I wanted to catch actual proof of the unexplainable. If we could catch these things on camera, then what else could be true? My podcast, ‘Kesha and the Creepies,’ was the jumping-off point into the unknown – and now this show is the ultimate quest to go deeper into my existential questions. Trust me, you don’t wanna miss this.”

Throughout the season, Kesha dives headfirst into mysteries ranging from demonic activity at Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary with comedian Whitney Cummings to hiking deep into the forests of California’s Mount Shasta in search of Bigfoot with “The Bachelorette” star, Jojo Fletcher. Kesha and former tour mate Betty Who face their fears at a haunted opera hall in Kesha’s home state of Tennessee; and she converts actor and rapper GaTa into a full-blown believer at one of the most haunted mansions on the West Coast. Kesha and legendary supermodel Karen Elson become the first to film inside an active and haunted lodge affiliated with the notorious secret society, the Odd Fellows. She also takes the queen of bounce rap, Big Freedia, on the ultimate ghost hunt at the infamously haunted Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum in Tennessee.

At every stop, Kesha and her celeb pals are joined by top paranormal experts – like psychics Cindy Kaza and Chip Coffey or Bigfoot researcher Ronny LeBlanc – who help guide them through the incredible paranormal activity they experience.

“Kesha has an incredible passion for all things paranormal,” said Matthew Butler, group senior vice president, Travel Channel and Paranormal Streaming Content. “It’s her fearless outlook that pushes her to explore the scariest places on earth, including when the cameras are not on her. And it’s even more enjoyable to watch her bring along her friends as we get to witness their transition from skeptics into believers.”

After piecing together the location’s haunted history, the team investigates using the latest scientific gadgets and technology in an effort to obtain physical evidence of the paranormal and uncover the truth behind the haunting.

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. Utah’s Uinta Basin has been shrouded in mysteries for centuries, with stories of otherworldly visitors dating back to ancient times. In recent years, even stranger sightings have been reported and captured. Osbourne, Mewes and Kennedy embark on an unflinching investigation to figure out if these phenomena are connected and why this strange activity is concentrated in the Uinta Basin.

SHOCK DOCS: MICHIGAN HELL HOUSE

It is the greatest paranormal story the public has never heard. From 1974 to 1975, in the small farming town of Merrill, Michigan, the Pomeraning family was tormented by relentless poltergeist activity inside their home. They even battled deadly spontaneous combustion erupting inside the house. Paranormal investigator Steve Shippy, with the help of psychic medium Cindy Kaza, will attempt to find the truth about the evil force that seemed to curse this home and family – an evil that still lives there to this day.

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. Allan, a physical medium who sees and communicates with the dead, assesses the property to identify what underlying entities reside there. Keeping their findings hidden from each other, the team avoids all contact with one another – coming together only at the very end to reveal their shocking discoveries to the property owners, and each other.

DESTINATION FEAR

Fear-chasing foursome – brother and sister duo Dakota Laden and Chelsea Laden and best friends Tanner Wiseman and Alex Schroeder – hit the haunted back roads of America, spending the night inside the nation’s scariest places. This season, the team drives deeper into their paranormal exploration, using new tactics and experiments to unlock dark secrets and bring them closer to the grim truths behind the hauntings. The journey will test their mental, emotional and physical strength to the extreme.

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. Equal parts terrifying and evocative, every hour-long episode will expose viewers to the real-life stories of survivors who have been dragged through hell and back and now struggle to rebuild their shattered lives.

EXPEDITION BIGFOOT

An elite team of investigators – acclaimed primatologist Dr. Mireya Mayor and Bigfoot researchers Bryce Johnson, Ronny LeBlanc and Russell Acord – journey deep into the unforgiving North American wilderness attempting to encounter the elusive beast. Armed with state-of-the-art technology, eyewitness testimony and decades of experience, they have a unified goal – to uncover the most convincing evidence and prove once and for all that Bigfoot is real.

FRIGHT CLUB

Jack Osbourne and the Ghost Brothers – Dalen Spratt, Marcus Harvey and Juwan Mass – are back with their hilarious and spooky competition to creep each other out with the craziest, most mind-blowing paranormal videos they can find. They’ll talk with the witnesses who captured the footage and get insight from other experts before voting on each episode’s “nightmare” clip. This season, a slate of actors, comedians and an Olympian join the party to share videos, insight and their own paranormal stories.

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. They then begin their “lockdown” investigation, using the latest scientific gadgets and technology in an effort to obtain physical evidence of the paranormal and uncover the truth behind each haunted mystery.

GHOST BROTHERS: LIGHTS OUT

The Ghost Brothers-Dalen Spratt, Juwan Mass and Marcus Harvey – flip the switch on paranormal lore by shining their own light on its darkest secrets. The dopest brothers on camera hunting ghosts, these candid and unorthodox paranormal investigators explore iconic haunted hotspots to find out if the legends are really true and if these places are still plagued by the horror of the events that occurred there. They are ready to expose the haunted holdouts hanging around these locations with unconventional experiments.

GHOST HUNTERS

The renowned TAPS team returns to the paranormal show that started it all. Original GHOST HUNTERS members Jason Hawes, Steve Gonsalves and Dave Tango, along with Shari DeBenedetti, revisit their most chilling cases and investigate disturbing new hauntings. Armed with state-of-the-art technology, their proven methodology and special guest investigators, TAPS tackle disturbing paranormal activity head-on, leaving no stone unturned to reach the dead among the living.

THE HAUNTED MUSEUM

Produced by Zak Bagans in collaboration with filmmaker Eli Roth, this horror film anthology series presents frightening and hellish tales inspired by the spooky relics on display in Zak Bagans’ Las Vegas museum. Bagans, a devoted collector of the macabre, is opening his museum vaults and sharing the secrets and stories behind a curated selection of his most prized haunted artifacts through scripted shorts produced by Roth and his accredited team, and with featured commentary from Bagans.

UFO WITNESS

Since the U.S. government released information on its decades of evidence on Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP) earlier this year, reports of sightings and accounts have only increased. UFO expert and former federal criminal investigator Ben Hansen is joining forces with UFO researcher and journalist Melissa Tittl to uncover the dark secrets surrounding the unidentifiable objects in our skies.

WHEN THE HAUNTED CALL, THEY ANSWER

ZAK BAGANS AND THE GHOST ADVENTURES TEAM HELP HOMEOWNERS IN CRISIS IN “GHOST ADVENTURES: HOUSE CALLS” – A NEW SPINOFF SERIES LAUNCHING THURSDAY, MAY 19 ON DISCOVERY+
NEW YORK (April 20, 2022) – Disembodied voices, objects moving on their own, shadow figures and apparitions – all are often signs of paranormal activity. When they occur inside your own home, it can bring an overwhelming sense of fear. Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Billy Tolley and Jay Wasley, the team behind GHOST ADVENTURES, have spent decades investigating ghostly activity to gain a better understanding of the afterlife. Now, they’re helping frightened families who believe they are under paranormal attack in the all-new eight-part series GHOST ADVENTURES: HOUSE CALLS, debuting with two episodes on Thursday, May 19 exclusively on discovery+. Watch the trailer.

In this first-ever spinoff, the team responds to urgent calls for help from desperate homeowners whose lives have been thrust into turmoil from unexplained activity inside their private residences. After hearing each family’s haunted account and reviewing bizarre evidence that was captured in their home, Bagans sends Goodwin, Tolley and Wasley on a personal house call to meet the family and get to the bottom of their paranormal emergency. When the team arrives on site and explores further, they are able to get a clearer picture of the situation – and whether it’s benign, or worse than they anticipated. Armed with their equipment, the crew conducts a thorough investigation to see what evidence they can capture, while Bagans oversees the activity from his headquarters, providing insight and applying experimental tactics from his unique vantage point. After the team analyzes their evidence, Bagans shares the findings in a one-on-one meeting with each homeowner, offering them much-needed advice and resolution.

“A home is a very personal and sacred space,” said Bagans. “When unexplained spirit activity causes a family to feel threatened and uncomfortable in their own house, that’s cause for immediate action. ‘House Calls’ is about helping people who are living in fear from something unknown. Our goal is to figure out what’s going on and provide answers, advice and many times, validation. These are the most personal and emotional investigations we’ve ever done.”

In the series premiere, a newly married couple in Long Beach, California, is plagued by a powerful and unexplained force intent on driving them apart. Matt and Christina are terrified that the entity is trying to control Matt’s life and separate him from his family. The minute the team enters the home, they quickly sense a dark energy around them. Then, as Matt talks with the group about his experiences, unexplained red marks begin to appear on his neck. As the crew conducts their investigation, the energy kicks up and Bagans begins to experience uneasy feelings all the way from basecamp. Compelling audio and visual evidence lead the crew to believe a malicious entity has taken up residence in the home, and the family must expel it before it further takes over their lives.

HELLISH HAUNTINGS SUMMON JACK OSBOURNE AND KATRINA WEIDMAN BACK TO THE UNDERWORLD FOR A BRAND-NEW SEASON OF “PORTALS TO HELL” – PREMIERING SATURDAY, APRIL 9 ON TRAVEL CHANNEL AND DISCOVERY+

The Paranormal Investigators Begin Their Supernatural Spree With a Face-Off Against the “Creeper” of Pennsylvania’s Hill View Manor
NEW YORK (March 16, 2022) – There’s hell to pay, and Jack Osbourne and Katrina Weidman are on a mission to find out why. The intrepid paranormal investigators team up again for an all-new season of PORTALS TO HELL, as they’re led to haunted locales where sinister spirits display a vendetta against anyone in their presence. Season Three, premiering Saturday, April 9 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Travel Channel and streaming the same day on discovery+, will feature 13 hour-long episodes.

There is no Casper or friendly ghosts here. The deeper the history the deeper the haunting. Exploring the shadowy corners of Detroit’s Eloise Psychiatric Hospital, the historic Savannah Theatre, Staten Island, New York’s Kreischer Mansion, Philadelphia’s Fort Mifflin and the infamous Missouri State Penitentiary, among others, Osbourne and Weidman confront disturbing activity and malevolent entities that have left those that crossed their path shaking in fear. Using their paranormal expertise, advanced scientific equipment and a network of specialists, including a team of psychic mediums, the duo search for evidence and answers as to who, or what, is wreaking such havoc on the living.

“This is a creepy AF new season, twisted and wildly unexpected,” said Osbourne. “The locations were bottled up with activity that hit us almost immediately. The vibes were dark and tense, and there were many times when I was seriously scared of what we might encounter.”

“These places had an intense energy you could feel the minute you walked in,” added Weidman. “Just being inside some of these buildings elicited an unexplainable physical discomfort. So many of the locations this season are just eerie and unnerving.”

In the season opener, Osbourne and Weidman travel to New Castle, Pennsylvania, home to Hill View Manor – a shuttered nursing home where former patients are rumored to live on after death. The sprawling complex has almost as many spirits as it does rooms. Constant reports of scratching, chronic dizziness and shadow apparitions have turned the building’s new owner, Carrie, from a paranormal skeptic into a full-blown believer. With her original plans to turn the property into condos no longer viable, she is hoping Osbourne and Weidman can figure out what exactly is going on within Hill View’s walls. But to get to the bottom of what’s feeding the manor’s dark forces, the duo will first have to face the Creeper – a malevolent shadow creature bent on scaring the living hell out of its victims.
