On the mid season premier, TAPS heads over to Iron Island, Buffalo, New York where they'll be investigating the Iron Island Museum. The Iron Island Museum was a formal Episcopal Church built in 1883 and later reworked as a funeral home/parlor in the 1950's. In the year 2000 it was renovated to be the city's museum. During renovation works, renovation workers had found more then 32 boxes of human ashes and remains. During the building's life as a funeral home, there was a person who past away during a wake. Volunteers for the museum are afraid to even go inside of it. Paranormal claims and activities include ominous shadow figures, cold spots, objects moving and falling by themselves, feeling of being followed, doors that are locked becoming unlocked and open by themselves, full body apparitions, and appearance of small children where none are present at the time.
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'.
