Fans of the series will also get to hang out in the Ghost Adventures Fan Lair and check out the web series Ghost Fit on TravelChannel.com.

We’ll also be treated with the third season of Making Monsters, a Toy Hunter Halloween special and the fifth season of The Dead Files.

Ghost Adventures launches its seventh season, featuring 12 all-new episodes.

Afterwards, they review and analyze their findings, often with chilling conclusions. This season, the crew travels to fascinating new locations including Sugar Lands, TX to investigate the Central Unit Prison, and Point Sur, CA’s historic Point Sur Lighthouse. The group also explores the 150-year-old Black Moon Manor mansion in Greenfield, IN, along with the haunted happenings at Sauk Centre, MN’s Palmer House Hotel.
