By Carla Davis
Discovery+ has announced that Zak Bagans, Jay Wasley, Billey Tolley and Aaron Goodwin (the team members from Ghost Adventures) are starting another paranormal series with the streaming platform.
Ghost Adventures: House Calls will feature the paranormal investigators exploring ghostly activity in homes, in the hopes of assisting families who believe they are in danger from paranormal entities. The eight-part series will premiere on Thursday, May 19 with two episodes, and can be seen exclusively on discovery+.
First, the team talks to the frightened homeowners and reviews any evidence they can provide, then Goodwin, Tolley and Wasley meet the family in the home and set out to get to the bottom of whatever is going on. Using their equipment, the crew investigates thoroughly, while Zak monitors them from headquarters, providing tips and commentary based on what he is seeing.
After everything has been reviewed and analyzed, Zak has a one-on-one meeting with the homeowner(s) and gives them his best advice based on what the team has discovered.
Zak describes the new discovery+ series as being all about “helping people who are living in fear from something unknown.” He went on to say that the team’s goal is to “provide answers, advice and many times, validations.”
