Ghost Adventures: House Calls 2

Disembodied voices, objects moving on their own, shadow figures and apparitions - all are often signs of paranormal activity.

When they occur inside your own home, it can bring an overwhelming sense of fear.

Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Billy Tolley and Jay Wasley, the team behind Ghost Adventures, have spent decades investigating ghostly activity to gain a better understanding of the afterlife.

Now, they're helping frightened families who believe they are under paranormal attack in the all-new eight-part series Ghost Adventures: House Calls.

In this first-ever spinoff, the team responds to urgent calls for help from desperate homeowners whose lives have been thrust into turmoil from unexplained activity inside their private residences.

After hearing each family's haunted account and reviewing bizarre evidence that was captured in their home, Bagans sends Goodwin, Tolley and Wasley on a personal house call to meet the family and get to the bottom of their paranormal emergency.

When the team arrives on site and explores further, they are able to get a clearer picture of the situation - and whether it's benign, or worse than they anticipated.

Armed with their equipment, the crew conducts a thorough investigation to see what evidence they can capture, while Bagans oversees the activity from his headquarters, providing insight and applying experimental tactics from his unique vantage point.

After the team analyzes their evidence, Bagans shares the findings in a one-on-one meeting with each homeowner, offering them much-needed advice and resolution.

In the Season 2 premiere, "Fear in Fort Gaines": Bagans and his team investigate a haunted historic house in Fort Gaines, Georgia, used as a paranormal attraction.

The owner's mother, the sole overnight resident, is attacked by a malicious entity after purchasing his dream haunted home.
