New Jersey is the home of the latest Ghost Adventures as they take on their biggest lock down yet. Located somewhere in New Jersey, an unnamed penitentiary is where the three guys searched for ghosts. They weren’t allowed to reveal the name or location of the penitentiary but it sure seemed promising. With over 10,000 deaths on the 90 acre grounds, the guys found out that many have already experienced paranormal activity. One man was creating an independent film inside the building on the grounds when a strange “hello” was caught on camera. Another eyewitness also said that a swoosh of cold air continues to pass by everyone who enters. Torte was rampant throughout the time the penitentiary was open as electric shock and water torture was used to calm the “mentally insane”. A tunnel underneath all of the buildings also played a role in the investigation as they connect all buildings. Spirits had been heard yelling “help” in the tunnels along with strange paintings on the walls pointing to death. The final location before the lock down as the morgue. There they found body shelves and of course one of them was going to be laying in there for a bit.
With the guys locked down it was time to get to the investigation but things started off rather bad. Zak poked Nick in the eye, saying it was “dangerous” for being pitch black but they moved on. In the hallway a nurse was said to be seen. The dark light was back in action but while waving it around the guys felt and heard something. They could hear something talking after asking questions, followed by a door making a loud noise. The voice was heard again, and captured on tape, so they continued to investigate the nurse. To “lure” her out Zak decided to put himself in a straight jacket and sit in the room. The stunt caught a man’s voice on an EVP and a strange voice when used to make one. With that the guys left the nurse alone and headed down into the tunnels.
Being in the tunnel only a few minutes some craziness went down. Zak caught a very strange shadow hand popping into his camera and freaked everyone out. It was pretty strange but sure seemed real, well shadow real. Being in the darkened tunnels made things a bit confusing for the guys. They ended up in the morgue where it was time for Nick to sleep in the death shelf. While Nick was in the shelf the other two guys went back into the tunnels to do some EVPs. The two found a new building, leaving Nick really alone and set to freak out. The voices returned, both for Zak/Aaron and also Nick. He heard someone outside the morgue while also catching an EVP saying “die”. He then started experiencing chills throughout his body along with knocking on the door. With the knocking it was time for Nick to get out but the door was still locked. Zak and Aaron knew something was up when Nick wouldn’t respond so they searched for their way back into the morgue. With doors locking and strange feelings everyone was freaking out. Zak thought someone was following them while Nick was going crazy. After an hour in the morgue Nick was finally free when the guys found him. When outside the morgue Nick was hit by an orb, followed by a red mark on his face and pain. The crew feels it could have been a spirit slapping Nick in the face, all caught on tape through an orb.

Ghost Adventures returns this week and takes on the Sloss Furnace, an iron mill in Alabama. When learning about the furnace the three guys were told that paranormal activity has been very prominent even before the furnace was shut down. Many men lost their lives working at the furnace due to the danger of the job. Two men fell into the furnace while several fell from the steps and platforms which are over 200 feet tall. One man was actually crushed with a large spinning wheel while two others were boiled from falling into a large vat of water. It was a very nasty job and many died doing it, creating the ghostly environment that the guys quickly encountered. One of the main haunts was Slag, an angry boss at the plant. They were told he was seen, and felt, in a hidden tunnel underneath the plant and they were curious if he would show for them. Two other researches who spent the night at the plant both said they were hurt from the ghost. One was slapped across the face while the others lungs were “squeezed”. Don’t know if I believe either but at least they built up the suspense.
As the nights investigation began things started rather early. While the guys were moving their equipment in Zak spotted a guy walking through one of the doors. It put everyone in the mood for the hunt and sent them directly into the hidden tunnel. There they heard footsteps but one experience beat any of them. Aaron was poked in the eye by, what they presume, was a spirit. He wanted to leave the tunnel right there and then but they made him continue only to hear more footsteps and freaking them out even more. They then decided to move outside for a bit and were surprised by a glowing light. They checked to see what it was but nothing was found. A mist was also caught on their one static cam, they weren’t there to check what it was though so it could have been anything. After moving down into the boiler room the guys starting hearing more noises but realized they should separate.
With Aaron in the control room Nick headed off to the hidden tunnel while Zak went back into the boiler room. Alone in the tunnel Nick was able to catch an EVP saying “I hate Zak”. Zak was having another spirit hate him at the same time as he pushed for Slag to show himself. He didn’t really show himself but did make himself heard. Zak continued hearing knocking on the pipes and caught an EVP saying “come here”. Back down in the tunnel Nick was having some more activity. He heard someone say “come on” right behind him, scaring him out of his seat and sending him running. Following that a mist showed on the screen with a prominent figure of an arm. It was hard to see but still very interesting and shows just how active the plant is. Following the investigation they took their findings to California for cleaning up. The guy who was helping them was able to make the EVPs sound much clearer and some of the mist clearer as well. Hopefully next week they find some more ghosts as they take on another penitentiary, this time in New Jersey.

After a few runs of somewhat dead finds Ghost Adventures return with an extremely active house: The Riddle House. Location in Palm Beach, Florida the Riddle House contains several spirits found in a very active neighborhood. The house once stood several blocks away and was moved to its current location while the ghosts tagged along. As the stories go it seems the most active, and most violent, spirit is named Joseph and haunts the attic. The spirit is said to be of a man who hung himself in the attic, using both a noose and ladder. One eyewitness claims that every ladder ever used in the house had been moved or knocked over at some time. Other activity was also found when construction on the house occurred as a beam was shot across the room, hitting one of the workers in the head.
Along with the three guys this episode also introduced a local psychic who went through the house without any prior knowledge of it. The guys invited the psychic to take a tour with them and she revealed many things that were true. Downstairs she could already feel that the house was active and told the guys they were going to be in for a wild night. On the second floor she correctly stated that people were heard talking in a child’s room and claimed it to be the start of a fight that caused the hanging. She hesitated going into the attic but did so anywhere. There she revealed that the man was hung and claimed his name to be Joseph. Both facts were true so it seemed like she was right on with her psychic ability. The psychic continued to be very agitated in the attic and told the guys the spirit was not happy with them there. He didn’t like Aaron especially, giving him in invite to sit in the room alone.
With their initial tours over it was time for the guys to get locked down. Before their actual investigation occurred thing already started to happen. Several minutes after placing a two by four on the top of the steps it moved without anything or anyone touching it. As the guys went to investigate a flag fell in the living room, something the curator said would most likely happen. It seems any flags they put in the building disappear or simply break. The temperature of the building was also strange as many spots were showing signs of coldness yet they were in the middle of summer in Florida. Upstairs in the attic both Nick and Zak left Aaron to sit and wait. While Aaron was upstairs the other two guys decided to do some EVPs in the living room. While setting up a loud bang was heard in the kitchen but nothing was found to be disturbed. They returned to the living room, rather frazzled, but not as much as Aaron was. While up in the attic Aaron was taunting the spirit of the man who hung himself. After saying that killing yourself is a cowardly act, a loud bang occurred which sent Aaron running downstairs. The guys went to meet him and in doing so heard another knocking in the kitchen. It seemed like things were falling all around them and somewhat out of control. After reviewing their tape it was shown that a birdcage fell in the attic. It doesn’t seem like it could have just fell without anything but rather it was pushed off the table. All in all it was one of the better episodes for Ghost Hunters so far. Next week they take us to a cement factory, that should be a good one!

Tonight a new paranormal show debuted on the Travel Channel named “Ghost Adventures”. The concept of the show is similar to most other paranormal shows out there lately but has a slight spin to it. Three guys film the entire footage you see and are physically locked into the buildings they document. The first episode began with a documentary movie that was filmed by the three guys and is followed by the first episode of the new series. The documentary shows how they got into paranormal research after being awoken by ghosts in their apartment. They then go off on a fourteen day stint where they search for paranormal activity while on a road trip and begin their paranormal career.
While the documentary movie focused on their time beginning as ghost hunters, the guys did encounter their first real ‘haunted house’. In an abandoned hotel the guys learn first hand what it means to be scared. Before entering the hotel the guys talked to the hotel’s next door neighbor who also continues to look over it. She tells them that she and others performed spiritual rituals there and that may be why the activity is so severe. Although she promises no ghosts have ever done physical harm, they do like to scare and force people to remove people from their home. The night the three guys spent in the hotel was not uneventful as several things occurred. While in the one hallway not only was an apparition seen but also a brick thrown towards one of the walls. The brick was picked up off of the ground and physically thrown across the room with no physical person or thing moving the brick. It was very clear on film and makes ghosts just a little more real. The guys then left that night after the brick event and did not complete their lock down stay.
For the first episode of the new series the three guys, Zak, Aaron and Nick, traveled to “Bob Mackey’s” in Kentucky where they learned there was a deep dark past to a simple bar. In both the attic and the basement they encountered paranormal activity and some not so nice. While going to the bathroom one of the guys heard two loud knocks on the wall and when demanding it to occur again it surely did. They then moved down to the basement where a disturbing cult used to sacrifice both animals and humans to the devil. There was also a beheading that took place there with a woman’s head being thrown into a well that led to the nearby river. While in the basement the leader of the group, Zak, was asking the spirits to do harm to one of the guys to show that they were there. He got his wish as his back began to suddenly burn. As they took a look at the problem the other two guys realized then that Zak had been scratched. You could obviously see three marks going down his back and more. Although he wanted to leave they continued on and were lucky to do so. While having a camera set up showing the well they caught an apparition that walked a few feet from the well. It was very clear and one of the better ones on any paranormal show to date. After leaving the building, very spook and still in pain from the scratches, the guys sat down and talked to a priest. He let them know what they were doing was very dangerous but they vowed to continue you.
Ghost Adventures will return every Friday at 9pm est on the Travel Channel.

CBS, Survivor Gabon
No Comments
Survivor Gabon got even more interesting as the tribe who nobody thought could gain a win actually did, sending the dominate Kota to Tribal council. Following Fang’s most recent tribal council where crazy old bat Gillian was voted off, the tribe was more fractured then ever before. Although everyone knew they’d have a new day in the morning to recoup, Randy was a bit upset that he got put on the “stupid” tribe.
Randy’s opinion didn’t change in the morning as he realized they were done half their rice in only seven days. As Randy asked the tribe to cut it down to two meals a day everyone agreed…. except for GC. He felt he didn’t have anything to do with it since they wasted a pot of rice in the first few days. Since GC once again felt someone was targetting him for a fight, Randy brought it to him as the two quarreled. It then became obvious who was the “cancer” in the group, according to Randy at least.

I Love Money, VH1
3 Comments
After controlling the last four eliminations on I Love Money, the four blondes were forced to turn against each other. Before the Pay Master challenge everything was fine between Brandi, Megan, Pumpkin and Toastee as they continued to ride the “we are weak” bandwagon. On the other side of the alliance spectrum were Hoopz and Real who were getting closer. Well I guess you could say Real was getting closer to Hoopz. See she has a boyfriend at home, which I don’t think Real knows about. He sure will a little later though!
At the Pay Master challenge the remaining eight were tasked to hold onto a dangling stripper pole. The last person on the pole would become the Pay Master and another twist was brought in. The first person to drop from the pole would be eliminated immediately from the game. That put the stakes even higher as nobody wanted to go home. As the challenge began the three guys all had trouble. The Entertainer was the first to drop though, sending himself home and back to his parents. The remainder of the guys, Whiteboy and Real then dropped leaving the five girls still hanging on. After Brandi, Pumpkin and finally Toastee fell it was down to Megan and Hoopz. Hoopz wanted to give it to Megan as she knew she would keep her but after hanging on for a few more minutes, Hoopz made a deal to keep Megan which gave Hoopz the title of Pay Master.
