(Case #2: Providence, Rhode Island - Ruffstone Tavern)
Later, on the second investigation of the episode, TAPS heads over to the Ruffstone Tavern in North Providence, Rhode Island, where there have been claims of paranormal activities concerning this place such as strange odors, and feelings of being watched.
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'.
