Ghost Nation returns to Travel Channel this Ghostober with all-new episodes starting on Saturday, October 17 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Jason Hawes, Steve Gonsalves, and Dave Tango, a.k.a. the paranormal investigators responsible for igniting the ghost hunting phenomenon, are tackling brand new cases.

The New Season

Each one-hour Ghost Nation episode spotlights locations with bigger, edgier mysteries. The danger and what’s at stake are always at the forefront of the team’s concerns. Not only will they help terrified homeowners, but they’ll also investigate a deadly, abandoned glass factory, a demonic tattoo parlor, and a mansion with a secret room sealed shut for a century. It’s a unified effort to help people and their businesses survive.

Paranormal investigator Shari DeBenedetti will join them to keep a close eye on the monitors and review footage for any unusual activity.

On all investigations, collecting evidence is just the beginning. With the help of their local contacts, the team embeds themselves in the community, conducting multi-day investigations in an effort to track down the true source of these hauntings and restore peace to the living.

Under the United Paranormal Research Organization (UPRO) banner, it isn’t only Hawes, Gonsalves, and Tango facing off against an unseen entity. Local paranormal groups, sometimes even the homeowners themselves, join the guys as they employ new devices and techniques for confronting and questioning spirits. They’ll do whatever it takes to entice the ghost into telling its story and stop at nothing to get to the bottom of the paranormal phenomena.

The Premiere Episode

In the premiere episode, “Evil Ink,” Jason Hawes, Steve Gonsalves, Dave Tango and Shari DeBenedetti investigate the paranormal events plaguing the Zone13 Tattoo and Body Piercing shop in New Jersey. They head to the town of Deptford to investigate the tattoo shop where disturbing apparitions, disembodied voices, and even physical encounters are threatening the business.

After their own investigation, it seems that whatever noises the team heard is following them as they move. With all these strange happenings and fresh evidence, the team will determine if the shop is actually haunted by one of the property’s former owners, a woman named Bertha.

But in addition to the return of Ghost Nation regular episodes, they’ll also reunite with some old friends in a special spooky season crossover event on October 31.

Ghost Nation: Reunion in Hell

Revelers can celebrate Halloween night with the ultimate series crossover. The Ghost Nation guys join forces with old friends Amy Bruni and Adam Berry from Kindred Spirits. It marks the first time in nearly a decade that the ghost hunting teams have reunited. (You may recall they starred together on SYFY’s Ghost Hunters back in the day.)

Together they’ll explore frightening activity inside an illustrious Newport, Rhode Island, mansion in Ghost Nation: Reunion in Hell, a Ghostober special two-hour episode premiering Saturday, October 31 at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

“We are ecstatic to get back to doing what we love, and we have some incredible cases to share,” said Hawes. “We were able to reconnect with our longtime friends Amy Bruni and Adam Berry. It seemed like time had stood still over the last 10 years as we rolled right into investigating and gathering some mind-blowing evidence and experiences.”

“Working with Amy and Adam was an absolute blast and the investigation was phenomenal. It was really interesting meshing our techniques together and it yielded some amazing results,” said Gonsalves.

“You’ll also be seeing some other familiar faces this season as well,” adds Tango. “I’m hoping the more people tune into ‘Ghost Nation,’ the more they will see how accessible we are. We’re here to help everyone, and thankfully, having so many investigators in our network makes it possible for us to do that.”
