Jason, Grant and TAPS Team are called in to go investigate a long abandoned well known prison in New England, that has its shares in history, known as "Eastern State Penitentiary". also well known for its paranormal activities, and its notable prisoners like Willie Sutton and Al Capone. TAPS tries to prove/disprove the occurrences plaguing the abandoned building. During the investigation, TAPS captures on film a man-like shadowy figure running across a higher floor walkway. Intrigued by this footage, the TAPS team decides to return in the hopes of capturing it again, and/or to disprove this was real or not. Also, While they are on the second day there, the TAPS team captures many flying orbs on video, but later are dismissed as just being dust particles reflected by light. Jason and Grant tries to recreate the shadowy figured man by duplicating the events and situation by means of covering someone up in a dark blanket, while then running across the same walkway to see if this was capable of the camera to pic up. Grant had to dismiss this case as being inconclusive, because the footage could of been anything from a hoax to the camera causing pixilation. Grant and Jason decided to add this clip to their website so that the viewers could determine for themselves if this was real or a camera illusion.
Ghost Hunters is an hour documentary-type show that follows a team of Paranormal investigators in the field of researching ghostly activities. The show follows a group of paranormal investigators from a well known organization/society known as TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society), whose founding members, Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson are also plumbers by day, working for Roto-Rooter in New England.
The show's/TAPS format goes as follows: The team either gets contacted or are drawn to investigate a location. They then go to that location and gather information about the location's history and past claims of hauntings, and try to debunk and/or recreate most/all of the claims, they also record all types of situations in all types of ways, from thermal imaging, EMF detection, still pictures, to EVP recordings. Then TAPS members analyze what they recorded and what they found, and then reveal their findings to Jason and Grant. Jason and Grant then meet with the client and go over any evidence that TAPS managed to find. Grant and Jason then tell them whether they believe the location is haunted or not, and if the location is haunted they try to help them anyway they can, from blessing the house to bringing a demonologist to exorcise the location'.
