I was not aware of that. What makes someone a professional ghost hunter? Do they go to schoolContinue Reading
Okay, so Zak, Nick, and Aaron of Ghost Adventures aren’t hunting with some boney new bros. They’re just messing around with some props like they always do. However, this week they are back with all new episodes and they’re kicking off the first show of 2011 with celeb guest hunters: theContinue Reading
