Nov. 1, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The “Ghost Hunters” Halloween special has been put under way and the results are out. With a live broadcast, as a special treat for its viewers, the team went to the Essex County hospital and premiered a show for 6 continuous hours on the night of Halloween.

The hospital is said to be stalked by the ghosts of the patients who were killed decades ago by the cold (when 24 patients died during the winter) and many others during the World War II. The hospital is not a a new find for the hunters, as it has been earlier featured on Ghost Adventures and also the, Clark Gregg directed, 2008 movie ‘Choke” starring Sam Rockwell and Angelica Huston.

The show ‘Ghost Hunter’ had its host in the form of ‘Josh Gates’, along with his team mates, Steve and Tango, who spent time together filming and finding ghosts in the century-old buildings. The crew inspected two of the most (reportedly) haunted buildings at the hospital [which has over 70 buildings], no. 11 (housing morgue) and no. 5 (that is said to have satanic energies). Since the area consisted of around 356 acres (35 acres in buildings), the team had to bring in extra investigators to help them search for the “Haunted”.

The extra investigators came in the form of the new people who had been recruited for Ghost Hunters Academy [which is to go on air from 11th Nov]. To watch the show, viewers had to log on to the Syfy website, where they could watch the live feed coming in from the different cameras placed in the different areas of the hospital. The best feature was, in case the viewer did find something spooky, they could hit the panic button, which then brought the investigators to the particular place.
