Cast
Ghost Hunters is an unscripted paranormal thriller show about a group of investigators that travel the US visiting the country’s most haunted places. Unlike other ghost-hunting shows, Jason Hawes, Grant Wilson, and his team attempt to debunk a haunting using scientific equipment rather than going into an investigation expecting to communicate with spirits.
