Ghost Adventures is a polarizing show, but some of the best Ghost Adventures episodes feature a balance of what audiences love, and what audiences hate. Viewers tend to either laugh at the sometimes theatrical character of Zak Bagans and the questionable validity of some of the paranormal evidence, or they appreciate the show for what it is and suspend their disbelief for a moment. As the seasons progress, Ghost Adventures gradually shed its more embarrassing habits and focused primarily on collecting evidence, garnering better and better ratings.

It’s left to viewers to decide upon the legitimacy of said evidence. This is a niche genre, with company like Sightings and Paranormal Witness. But, for believers and casual viewers alike, Ghost Adventures is well-received and worth the watch. The best Ghost Adventures episodes have stuck with fans of the show for years and are likely to haunt them for years to come.

The Joe Exotic Zoo is haunted, according to the Travel Channel’s Ghost Adventures team. The Greater Wynnewood Animal Park has a troubled and notorious history, but that’s only part of the story. Staff at the park say they experienced mysterious and unexplained activity on a routine basis. They believe the phenomena is connected to the park’s past. In Ghost Adventures: Horror at Joe Exotic Zoo, Zak Bagans and his spook-chasing crew go inside the infamous Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park to investigate “sinister accounts of ghostly activity,” according to the synopsis.

Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Jay Wasley and Billy Tolley will conduct the first-ever paranormal investigation inside the Oklahoma park. “It’s an undertaking like no other for the group, teeming with shocking stories and discoveries, cadaver dogs and undeniable paranormal evidence,” reads the press statement. In this two-hour special, the team examines claims of “tortured spirits believed...

On his show "Ghost Adventures" for Travel Channel, Zak Bagans and his cohorts Nick Groff and Aaron Goodwin visit, literally, some of the scariest places on Earth. Now Bagans actually owns one of them. Read on for details.

Before we get into all that, a little back story. Recently Gary, Indiana, resident Latoya Ammons reported that both she and her three children had been possessed by demons. Immediately the Department of Child Services stepped in to investigate.

As per Huffington Post:

Over the course of investigations that included police questioning, hospital visits and psychiatric evaluations, several authorities confirmed there was something unusual about the Ammons' case.

"Twenty years, and I've never heard anything like that in my life. I was scared myself when I walked into the room," said Dr. Geoffrey Onyeukwu, the family physician who evaluated Ammons and her three children. He spoke with the Indianapolis Star about his...

Tonight marks the 100th episode of Ghost Adventures and their special episode is taking place in the house that inspired The Exorcist. I took part in a recent press conference with the Ghost Adventures Crew (Zak Bagans, Nick Groff, Aaron Goodwin) and we learned about the 100th episode, their recent trip to Transylvania, and much more:

Zak Bagans on reaching the 100th episode mark: “We’re really excited. It’s been a long journey and, in that whole process of investigation, we have really matured as paranormal investigators because we have seen and felt and heard just how real and dangerous this field can be.”

Zak Bagans teases what we can expect from the 100th episode: “The 100th episode at the Exorcist house deals with something that we’ve all been through before: possessions. And so this was about learning more about the experiences we went through.

We went there...
