Ghost Adventures: Season 2 (2009)

The Ghost Adventures crew led by Zak Bagans returns in their second season to document the paranormal. Not only probing the dark corners of their native U.S. but also some of the most infamous sites in Europe. Process shots of skies moving quickly to night, unexpected video interference, and close-ups of rotten, dilapidated scenery conveying the muted horror of each location are sprinkled throughout each episode, adding to the already eerie mood of the show.

Fans of the first season will be happy to see the same formula return as the GA team strategically place their cameras before being locked down in a variety of ways to ensure an intimate investigation. The team utilizes a range of equipment including an EMF detector, EM pumps, digital thermometers, digital voice recorders, motion sensors, thermal imaging and an array of experimental devices which push the boundaries of paranormal documentation.

As each unexplained noise or disembodied voice is encountered, Zak's voice narrates a small scene of review but at times it feels as if the audience is being led to his conclusions. Ghost Adventures can be a lot of fun to watch with a friend during the daytime as you laugh at the crew's frightened reactions and sometimes bizarre behavior but for its full effect it should be viewed alone at night.
