Jason Hawes Movies

The 10-episode opening season of Ghost Hunters finds the members of TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society), captained by a pair of level-headed professional plumbers named Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson), hunted down evidence of paranormal activity throughout New England. In the first episode, TAPs technical manager Brian Harnois alerts the team to possible poltergiest activity in Altoona, Pennsylvania. Hawes, Wilson et. al. remain in the same town for the next episode, in which they look into a reported haunting at the historic Mishler Theater and the sighting of a restless spirit at the Altoona Railroaders Memorial Musuem. Then it's off to New London, Connecticut, in hopes of finding out if the Lighthouse Inn is being haunted by one of those ghostly brides so common to paranormal mythology. Long Island Sound is the next stop, where at the request of the US Coast Guard the team looks into some curious luminescent activity at the Race Rock Lighthouse. Subsequent stopovers include Eastern State Penitentiary, an abandoned prison with a "bad" reputation, which is thoroughly scoured for evidence of spectral ex-convicts. Equally eerie is a deconsectrated 19th century New England church, where doors open and close mysteriously and strange noises are heard in the night. The team later sets up their camera equipment in hopes of catching a ghost "in the act" in New Bedford, Massachussetts Armory--with shocking results. Then, the team must determine in the "disturbances" in a college dorm are paranormal activity or merely the result of too much beer-guzzling. Also, TAPS joins forces with Mike Sinclair, founder of ORION paranormal, for a probe of the New Boston Inn in the Berkshires. And wrapping up the first season, the team looks into two different cases in a single episde: A report from a "sensitive" who claims to have been accosted by a demonic spirit, and the possibility that a family's home is still inhabited by the ghost of the man who built it. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
