"Ghost Hunters," the #1 paranormal reality television series and longest-running series on the Syfy network, is executive produced by Craig Piligian, Mike Nichols, Thomas Thayer and Alan David. "We are very excited to be working with Pilgrim Studios and the 'Ghost Hunters' franchise," states David Rand. "The show has a loyal fan base and past DVD sales have performed well -- we anticipate as much success with Season 9." 

In Season 9 of "Ghost Hunters," Jason Hawes and his team from The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS) continue conducting chilling investigations across the country.  Locations include Los Angeles' historic Sowden House, said to be the site where Elizabeth Short -- more famously known as "The Black Dahlia" -- was brutally murdered; the eerie Peoria Asylum in Bartonville, IL, where an estimated 16,000 people perished under gruesome conditions; and Sylvan Beach Amusement Park on Lake Oneida, NY which, according to its owners and patrons, is a rollercoaster of paranormal activity.

"Ghost Hunters" Season 9 will be available second quarter at major retailers and online distributors.
