'Ghost Adventures' Star Zak Bagans and Holly Madison Have Decided to Call It Quits
'Ghost Adventures' fans, if you're curious about whether Zak Bagans has a wife or kids, get the scoop on the paranormal investigator's dating life.

Feb. 25 2021, Updated 5:41 p.m. ET
Investigating paranormal occurrences has become a 24-7 gig for Ghost Adventures ' Zak Bagans over the years. The 43-year-old often takes work home with him — literally — especially after purchasing a haunted house and experiencing spirits attaching themselves to him, according to his own accounts. And it seems focusing so much on his job hasn't left a whole lot of room for romance. While Zak Bagans does not have a wife and kids, we do have some insights into his romantic life.
Zak Bagans doesn't have a wife, but he was previously romantically linked to Holly Madison.
Recently, TMZ reported that Zak Bagans and Holly Madison broke up after two years of dating. While the pair met years before, they didn't become romantically involved until they reconnected in May 2019 when Holly came to visit Zak's Haunted Museum in Las Vegas. The two, who have been tight-lipped about their romance for the duration of their relationship, have kept their breakup equally quiet. According to sources, Holly and Zak broke up sometime in February 2021, but they are still cordial.

Prior to dating Zak, the 40-year-old former star of Girls Next Door was married to Pasquale Rotella until February 2019. They share two kids together who are fairly young, so it's possible Holly tries to keep her personal life as down-low as possible for their benefit.
Although Holly and Zak have decided to call it quits, the model left one clue that this may not be the end of the road for the couple. Her IG bio lists among her occupations "Future ghost," which feels like an obvious nod to Zak's line of work.
Despite his recent breakup, at least Zak still has the other love of his life, his dog, Gracie.
Gracie says thanks for all of you sharin your pet pics with her pic.twitter.com/NhLo17VmdG — Zak Bagans 🧛🏻♂️ (@Zak_Bagans) March 22, 2020
Another past love of Zak's, Christine Dolce, tragically passed away in 2017.
Prior to linking up with Holly, not much is known about Zak's previous romances, though he was involved for some time with Christine Dolce, who was at one time known as the Queen of MySpace and was basically one of the first social media influencers. Sadly, Christine, who was also known as "Forbidden," struggled with substance abuse and died of liver failure in February 2017.
While their relationship had long since ended, Zak still expressed his sorrow over news of her passing, saying, "She will be missed... may she RIP."
She will be missed... may she RIP https://t.co/5iOIps8NY0 — Zak Bagans 🧛🏻♂️ (@Zak_Bagans) February 24, 2017
It's safe to say Zak's first and biggest love is hunting ghosts. He has been connected to the paranormal since he was two years old, he told Las Vegas Magazine in 2017, and his earliest memories involve spirits and creatures talking to him. "It’s not just a career, it’s my life, my passion; it’s what I love to do," he said. "It’s fun going on investigations, and helping people — it’s an adventure."

Zak Bagans and Holly Madison are officially back together ... rekindling their romance nearly two years after they broke up.
Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... Zak and Holly are an item again and, actually, had never really fallen out of touch. You'll recall, it was an amicable split back in 2021 -- and our sources say that proved to be true because they've been communicating on and off ever since.
Holly and Zak had known each other for years, but their romance didn't start until after her May 2019 visit to Zak's Haunted Museum in Las Vegas.
We're told Holly travels back and forth between L.A. and Vegas because of her kids, and Zak travels a ton for the filming of his show ... but they still find time to see each other almost every week.
The couple have kept their relationship mostly out of the public eye and have rarely been photographed together. Last month Holly wished Zak a happy birthday on IG with a photo of a clown birthday cake.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
We broke the story when the "Ghost Adventures" star and former Playboy model ended their relationship after 2 years of dating.
Both of them have a lot to celebrate these days -- Discovery Channel renewed Holly's show "The Playboy Murders" for a second season and Zak's "Ghost Adventures" series was recently picked up by the network.
Holly famously dated Hugh Hefner , while starring on the reality show "The Girls Next Door." She went on to marry Pasquale Rotella , with whom she had 2 kids, before he filed for divorce in 2018.

Is Zak Bagans Married? Does He Have Children?

Zak Bagans is an American paranormal investigator, actor, and producer. The Washington, D.C.-born rose to fame after appearing on ‘ Ghost Adventures ’ as its primary host. The Travel Channel show has been going on for over two decades now, as its season 20 premiered on November 5, 2020. His childhood and personal other-worldly experiences led him to walk on the less beaten path passionately.
Despite being in the media industry for so long, Zak has lived less like a celebrity. The fact that he keeps his personal relationships brushed under the carpet bears testimony to this. We got curious to know more about him, so we dug deeper, and here’s everything we know!
Zak Bagans: Professional Endeavours
Zachary Bagans began his career in the media industry in 2004 after he co-produced a movie in the fashion of a documentary, ‘Ghost Adventures.’ The award-winning film was first filmed in 2004 and produced by 4Reel Productions in 2006. It premiered on SyFy Channel on July 25, 2007, and developed into a docu-reality series based on the same premise, the following year. He has been the principal host of the Travel Channel show for all its 20 seasons.

In the fall of 2017, the television personality turned into a museum owner and operator after opening The Haunted Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada. After its inauguration in October of the same year, the museum has been subject to a handful of controversies. For instance, reports of some of the exhibits having doubtful provenance and an incident involving a visitor fainting after experiencing paranormal activity from an alleged demon-possessed rocking chair.
Bagans is also an author as he co-wrote ‘Dark World: Into the Shadows with the Lead Investigator of the Ghost Adventures Crew’ with Kelly Crigger. His second venture as a writer was his book ‘Ghost-Hunting For Dummies,’ which got published in December 2019. Clearly, his professional life hardly leaves him with any time to pursue love, but somehow, he has managed to do so!
Is Zak Bagans Married?
First and foremost, let’s clear the air… Zak Bagans has never married and does not have children from any previous relationship. But this does not mean that he has not dated anyone in his life. The actor is dating the former Playboy model, Holly Madison. The couple had already met years back but were both committed to other people then. Fortunately, they reconnected after Madison visited his museum in May 2019. A few days later, he posted an artwork of a girl-ghost stealing his heart on his social media accounts.

The following month, a source close to People confirmed the news, which came out four months after she divorced her now ex-husband, Pasquale Rotella. While the two did not explicitly confirm the dating rumors, both have dropped a few hints pointing towards the same direction. The mother of two claims to be the “Future ghost” in her Instagram Bio. It seems like they are still going strong but choosing to keep their personal life under wraps.
Before Holly, Bagans had kept the dating slate clean for almost ten years, or at least, nothing is known about it from 2010 to 2019. However, the paranormal investigator was linked to Christine Dolce, formerly famous as the Queen of MySpace, in 2010. She was one of the first social media influencers, and unfortunately, she passed away in February 2017 after losing her battle with substance abuse. They never confirmed or denied the relationship speculations, but at the news of her death, Bagans paid his condolences on his Twitter handle.

Zak Bagans Shares 16 Behind-the-Scenes Facts About Ghost Adventures
By sean hutchinson | jan 28, 2021.

For more than a decade, Ghost Adventures has been spooking up the airwaves of the Travel Channel, " capturing groundbreaking proof of the paranormal " on camera in different haunted destinations across the globe and using the latest scientific gadgets and technology to obtain physical evidence of spirits.
With the show’s recent leap to the brand-new streaming service discovery+, lead Ghost Adventures Crew (GAC) investigator Zak Bagans and his fellow investigators Aaron Goodwin, Billy Tolley, and Jay Wasley hope to keep capturing ghosts and ghouls, and uncovering more truths behind each haunted mystery, for another decade and beyond.
We caught up with Bagans to get some behind-the-scenes secrets about what it takes to capture full-bodied apparitions and some of the creepiest moments throughout the show’s storied history of paranormal exploration.
1. Ghost Adventures began as a movie.
Ghost Adventures 's first adventure wasn’t the first episode of the TV show. The series actually began as a feature-length documentary on the then-named Sci-Fi Channel (now Syfy) in 2007. The documentary featured Bagans, Goodwin, and former investigator Nick Groff tracking paranormal activity in Virginia City and Goldfield, Nevada, locations such as The Washoe Club and the Goldfield Hotel.
Bagans tells Mental Floss that the original idea for the movie and series “came from me having an experience back in about 2002, when I was living in Detroit, Michigan. Then that kind of put my mindset into exploring the paranormal and trying to get answers for what I experienced.”
The GAC eventually returned to these spooked-out locations during the series' fourth, fifth, and seventh seasons.
2. Zak Bagans has been having paranormal adventures since he was a kid.
Can you hunt ghosts even if you didn’t know ghost hunting was a thing? For Bagans, the answer is a resounding yes.
“I believe spirits that are around me ever since I was little guide me and protect me,” Bagans tells Mental Floss. “It kind of inspired me to initially explore these mining towns in Nevada, and once we got there things just started clicking. It just felt right, and led to the Ghost Adventures documentary.”
3. Zak Bagans's paranormal experiences continue after the cameras stop rolling.
“When I come home from investigating, I'm around it all the time," Bagans says of his paranormal adventures. "It's not necessarily that I've chosen this. I have the sense as though I'm supposed to do this, not just for television, but also for just my own self.”
4. Practice makes perfect—even in ghost hunting.

Investigating the paranormal for more than a decade brings with it a ton of wins and losses and ups and down. Bagans says that, even when trying to capture ghosts on camera, practice makes perfect.
“The biggest thing that I have evolved into or have noticed over the years is my ability to detect spirits and energies—seeing things with my third eye,” Bagans says about him and his GAC colleagues becoming professional paranormal investigators. “When you investigate, you're going to possibly come into contact with good spirits, and then you've got to protect yourself from the bad ones. After this long, we’ve learned to live with them, to deal with attachments and many different energies. And I know now how to interpret those feelings that I get. We know what they mean.”
Bagans likened the evolution of the crew’s investigations to learning to play an instrument: “[In the beginning] we just didn't know how to play it or tune it. Through the years and through all these investigations, I feel as though I can play any key or any note now.”
5. On Ghost Adventures , the sixth sense comes in handy during intense investigations.
One never knows what to expect when walking into a haunted location, especially when it’s in someone’s home. To the crew, and Bagans in particular, a heightened sense of empathy has helped with personal haunting investigations.
“I am very empathic, so I do connect with not only spirits emotionally, but also people,” he says. “I use that ability to really help me gauge the authenticity and the severity of what any living people are going through, which will put me in the right direction of how we want each investigation to go.”
6. Ghost Adventures may look a little different on discovery+.
Ghost Adventures spent 12 seasons investigating more than 200 paranormal mysteries on the Travel Channel before making discovery+ its new home in early 2021. The change of viewing venue isn’t just to align the show with all the cord-cutters out there who happen to be into ghost-hunting shows. Besides loving the ability for viewers to watch every single investigation (“They can kind of read the whole book so far, so to speak,” Bagans says), the Ghost Adventures frontman explained that the platform-switch was made to intentionally push the boundaries of what they can do with the format of the show.
“It has allowed us now to provide some more original content, and it's definitely going to expand what we're doing in our investigations,” he says, citing the recent two-hour Cecil Hotel special, and offering that—without spoilers—the show aims to put out all the kinds of new non-episode-specific content in 2021.
7. The Ghost Adventures team is eager to reinvestigate certain locations.
Speaking of the Cecil Hotel: According to Bagans, the infamous Los Angeles locale—which, in addition to being the scene of violence and murders, is where the Black Dahlia was purported to have been spotted before her disappearance and where Night Stalker Richard Ramirez was rumored to have stayed—is the one place he’d most like to reinvestigate.
“It really truly left its mark on me in more ways than a lot of other locations have," Bagans says. "It's just so absolutely mysterious and there are reasons why nobody's ever been allowed to investigate that for years. Just walking in there—you see the physical building, but if you were able to put on some interdimensional goggles, that hotel would have a lot more hallways, it would have a lot more doorways, and a lot more rooms.”
8. There are some locations the Ghost Adventures Crew would rather never revisit.
From the dreaded Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia to Italy's Poveglia Island, the GAC has been to basically every notable haunted location across the globe. But there are three locations in particular where the team vowed to never return.
The first is the so-called Demon House , the Gary, Indiana, structure from the 2008 Ghost Adventures -adjacent spinoff documentary of the same name. It was here that a series of demonic possessions occurred, allegedly leaving team members—including Bagans—with vision problems . He eventually had the structure razed.
“I have no intention to go back to that land. It was a demonic virus,” Bagans says. “Everybody asks, ‘Why didn't you keep it up and allow other paranormal investigators in there?’ Well, did you see what happened to all of us?”
The other two locations Bagans says will never again be seen on the show anytime soon are the Goatman’s Bridge in Denton, Texas, and McRaven Mansion in Vicksburg, Mississippi. "I've been to a lot of different demonic places, but in those locations it seemed like it was really just affecting those people," Bagans says. "Those were some of the most terrifying moments of my life."
9. The Ghost Adventures team tailors their approach to each location they visit.
Over the years, Bagans and company have conducted hundreds of investigations—and have likely used an equal number of paranormal tools and technologies to assist them. How else are you supposed to capture those elusive specters? According to Bagans, they try not to leave anything up to chance.
“We're not just running around abandoned buildings; we take all of the cases absolutely seriously,” Bagans says. “Every location is different ... Before I get there, we have done a little bit of research on the nature of the hauntings, the history of the location, [and knowing] if anybody's been affected ... Then we lay out a kind of game plan.”
According to Bagans, the team creates a tactical-style investigation plan for each location, including assembling certain types of equipment like the Ovilus device (which translates environmental readings into words), the Polterpod (a spirit communication device), and an electromagnetic field (EMF) detector (for detecting electromagnetic fields). The plan will also determine whether there's a need for any additional specialists—like “If we need an exorcist,” Bagans says.
10. It takes hours and hours to catch the paranormal "proof" you see on Ghost Adventures .
It’s one thing to actually capture a ghost on camera; it’s another to make sure the GAC remembers where and when it happens during an investigation. When Bagans and company return to their home base after scoping out a location, the task of combing through hours and hours of footage for possible evidence of paranormal activity usually lies with one man: Billy Tolley .
“He is absolutely incredible, just such a sharp eye,” Bagans says. “He goes through all the footage, all the audio. In fact, right after I’m done talking with you, he's coming over to review everything from a new investigation with me.”
Once they work to mark down each potential paranormal occurrence during their time in a location, they begin to structure the episode.
“If we review 20 hours of footage from a couple of cameras, and we capture a light anomaly that happened to disappear inside of me, then all of a sudden I felt a bit of rage, that's pretty compelling,” Bagans says. “So, those help structure the big episode moments we want to include.”
11. Bad evidence, or a lack of proof, helps structure episodes of Ghost Adventures , too.
Fans should know that the GAC has a reputation of capturing compelling evidence as well as debunking certain supposedly haunted spaces based on their experiences at each location. Bagans was quick to offer some pointers based on slips-ups from previous would-be paranormal encounters.
“When you do an investigation, it's always best to put your infrared (IR) light source away from the lens of the camera,” he says. “A lot of security cameras have the IR light that goes in a ring around the camera, and you pick up a lot of dust, which looks like it's snowing and flurries. But when you put your IR light away from the camera, you don't capture any of that.”
Hoaxers take note: Use an IR light to fake ghost footage as your next party trick.
12. The COVID-19 pandemic has streamlined Ghost Adventures .
As happened with so many other professionals, the COVID-19 pandemic quickly shut down many of the best laid plans for Bagans and his crew. But they eventually adapted, which led to the four-part miniseries, Ghost Adventures: Quarantine , in June 2020. The episode centered around Bagans, Tolley, Goodwin, and Wasley locking themselves in Bagans’s Haunted Museum in Las Vegas and investigating its many haunted artifacts, including Dr. Jack Kevorkian’s Volkswagen van, some haunted dolls, the so-called Devil’s Rocking Chair, and the mysterious Dybbuk Box. To Bagans, the logistics of putting together a TV series amid the pandemic were a minor setback.
“With COVID as tragic as it has been, with how many people have been affected and have lost their lives, it's truly a tragic thing," he says. "But doing this for so many years, being in so many different types of locations, and dealing with different types of people, we've been able to learn how to also adapt to our situations very well.”
13. The pandemic has opened doors to new locations for the Ghost adventures team.
“The Cecil Hotel and even the Comedy Store—these are places that the pandemic allowed us to investigate that we probably would have never been able to investigate just because they've had to shut down,” Bagans says.
14. The wildest paranormal experience Zak Bagans ever witnessed involved rapper Post Malone.
Widely considered the world’s most haunted object, the Dybbuk Box at the Haunted Museum supposedly houses a malicious spirit from Jewish folklore and leaves a curse on anyone who touches it. In June 2018, that spirit allegedly cursed rapper Post Malone, who happened to be at the museum with Bagans.
Bagans explains that when he removed the plexiglass cover from around the box to touch the World War II-era cabinet for the first time, Malone touched his shoulder, and thus transferred the curse, causing the “Sunflower” and “Circles” musician some seriously bad luck.
First, Malone's private plane had to make an emergency landing after its tires blew off; armed thieves attempted to break into a California home they believed to be his; and his Rolls-Royce was involved in a serious car accident.
Bagans cites the curse as the wildest thing he had ever witnessed during an investigation, saying, “Four or five months ago Post Malone went on the Joe Rogan podcast and told Joe that it was the most fear that he's ever seen a human being have.”
15. A new haunted artifact belonging to Zak Bagans might be even scarier.
Bagans revealed that he’s creating a new exhibit around a recently acquired artifact: the supposedly cursed clown doll from the movie Poltergeist .
“We were moving the clown and when my assistant touched it he had a really weird feeling, and he's not sensitive to these things at all,” Bagans says. “The very next day he got into a car accident; a few days later, he got into another car accident and had to be taken to the hospital by an ambulance; four days after that, his house was broken into; then a few days after that , a family member of his was diagnosed with a very serious medical condition. So I feel as though these are things you have to pay attention to. I feel the magnitude of these items' powers are very misunderstood.”
16. There’s one place Zak Bagans thinks amateur investigators should go.
“Room 11, the Silver Queen Hotel,” he says, citing his experience during the original Ghost Adventures documentary and the season 6 "Return to Virginia City" episode. “That room inspired me to put a number 11 tattoo on my arm.”
It was there, during the original documentary, that the GAC captured what they claimed was the arm of a woman named Elizabeth (who died by suicide in the room) after Bagans provoked the ghost in an insensitive way. In the season 6 episode, “I apologized to her, and she acknowledged my apology and it made me really emotional,” Bagans says. “I felt her pain, I felt her presence. It's just incredible, you know, these experiences with the paranormal spirits—not many people know how powerful they can be.”
New episodes of Ghost Adventures , including the Ghost Adventures: Cecil Hotel special and the full library, can be found on discovery+ . An all-new episode, “House of Brujería,” begins streaming on Friday, February 12.
Ghost Adventures: The Untold Truth Of Zak Bagans

You don't have to believe in ghosts to be a "Ghost Adventures" fan. The Travel Channel series takes you to places you won't find in a Lonely Planet guidebook — it's got morbid history, fun camerawork, cool scenery, lots of belly laughs, and it's scary, like horror-movie scary, complete with ominous mood lighting and jump scares. Also, it's forever entertaining to watch Zak make Aaron go sit alone in a dark, dilapidated room in some terrifying, terrifying abandoned mansion, prison, hospital, or whatever.
"Ghost Adventures" was the brainchild of Zak Bagans, who is Hollywood handsome, wears only black, and does voice-overs that sound like Rod Sterling at half speed. The show is just one of many paranormal investigation shows you can find on cable television — even the Osbournes have one — but "Ghost Adventures" is different because Zak is different. This guy lives and breathes the paranormal, which frankly would be kind of a drag if it meant you had to be forever haunted by some ghost or another and could never get away from it, but Zak does seem to thrive on all the attention, both from the living and from the dead. He even owns a Haunted Museum and a Demon House , the latter of which is just an empty lot now because he had it demolished two years after he bought it. Zak is a big personality and though we love the other guys on the "Ghost Adventures" team, well, it wouldn't be what it is without Zak Bagans.
Zak Bagans always believed in ghosts
If you watched "Ghost Adventures" back in the old days, when Zak Bagans looked like he was about 12, you probably remember the original opening sequence: "I never believed in ghosts until I came face to face with one." Compelling, right? Who better to sell non-believers on the existence of ghosts than a former non-believer?
Well, it turns out that opening line might have been a bit fictionalized. If you look back into Zak's childhood, it's pretty clear he's kind of always had a thing for the paranormal. In fact, according to his own "about" page on the Zak Bagans Haunted Museum 's website, he's been interested in the paranormal since he was 10 when he used to buy scary stuff at yard sales with his mom.
In his autobiography, " Dark World: Into the Shadows with the Lead Investigator of the Ghost Adventures Crew ," Zak recalls watching some bizarre apron-clad mouse-demon thingy trash his bedroom while he was a small child. And he also told the Daily Herald that when he was a teenager, he went in search of a phantom house and actually found it. The house drifted in and out of reality, and then the door opened and a spooky figure appeared. In another incident, a girl he didn't know used a Ouija board to tell him intimate details about his life. So it does seem like "believing in ghosts" has kind of been a lifelong thing for him.
Zak Bagans came 'face to face' with a ghost
Zak Bagans describes the "face-to-face" encounter from those old opening credits in detail in the first pages of his autobiography, " Dark World: Into the Shadows with the Lead Investigator of the Ghost Adventures Crew ." According to the story, he was living in Trenton, Michigan, in an apartment building where there was a "presence of something that was not inviting."
During the summer of 2002, Zak says he was awoken seven nights in a row by a ghostly woman's voice screaming "Zachary!" On the last night, the ghost pinned him face-down on the bed. When he was finally able to sit up, he was staring her right in the face.
To his credit, this definitely does seem a bit more literally "face to face" than the story about the demon mouse or the phantom house or the girl with the Ouija board, and he does say it was this experience that "opened [his mind] to the paranormal." In the book, he also writes that he was "indifferent on the topic of ghosts" until that particular moment, which is not exactly the same thing as saying "I never believed in ghosts until ..." So it does sort of seem like he changed his story a little, you know, for dramatic effect. But probably no one is really buying that Zak Bagans was ever the non-believer he said he was back in the early days of "Ghost Adventures."
Zak Bagans has a film degree
On the other hand, Zak Bagans isn't just a guy who picked up a camera because one spooky encounter convinced him to. He has a background in cinematography, and he does know some stuff about how to create mood, set a scene, and tell a story. If he didn't, "Ghost Adventures" would probably not be as wildly popular as it is.
Zak is a graduate of the Motion Picture Institute, which boasts such other notable alumni as Josh Wagner, who wrote and directed the indie film "Turning Point" that you've probably never heard of, and, you know, a couple of people who work at Netflix or got jobs as assistant location managers. Don't laugh. Making it in Hollywood is rough, even when you have a film school degree.
Anyway, Zak is kind of the Motion Picture Institute's biggest star alumni, and they don't seem at all phased by the fact that he makes a documentary show about stuff that a lot of people don't take very seriously, because it's a wildly popular documentary show about stuff that a lot of people don't take very seriously. And when you're trying to sell your film school, well, that's at least more impressive than "works at Netflix" or "is an assistant location manager."
The first episode of 'Ghost Adventures' was school project
Zak Bagans was drawn into paranormal filmmaking before he even left film school. In fact, the very first episode of "Ghost Adventures" was not an episode at all but a feature-length documentary, and it was a project for his film studies degree .
In Zak's autobiography " Dark World: Into the Shadows with the Lead Investigator of the Ghost Adventures Crew ," he writes about teaming up with Nick Groff and Aaron Goodwin as students to shoot a film about ghost hunting in the haunted mining towns of Nevada. To make the film, they visited a creepy hotel in Tonopah and another creepy hotel in Virginia City. They filmed a mist, and a ghost threw a brick at them in the basement. When they got home, they cobbled the footage together and submitted it to the New York International Film and Video Festival. They won best documentary.
That was pretty much how it started. Zak does not have a story of struggling to make it, of not being taken seriously, of working at Netflix or as an assistant location manager before finally getting his big break. Nope, Zak kind of became a star just as he was finishing his education. Now, no one is saying that you have to struggle in order to make great art ... also no one is saying that "Ghost Adventures" is great art ... but luck definitely played a part in Zak's success. Or something supernatural? Nah.
Zak Bagans got some bad press
Well, it's not clear how Zak Bagans feels about the "I don't believe in ghosts" variety of nonbeliever, but anyone who publicly non-believes that "Ghost Adventures" is for real had better watch their backs. In early January of 2020 (or maybe late December, the details are sketchy), Ranker's "Graveyard Shift" published a story that suggested maybe "Ghost Adventures" fakes its investigations. And while a noble attempt was made to find a Wayback copy of the original story, it is as deleted as Ranker said it was in a January 3, 2020 apology they issued on Facebook .
"Ranker.com and Graveyard Shift have permanently taken down and deleted an article we recently published about Zak Bagans of 'Ghost Adventures' and 'The Haunted Museum' fame," they wrote. "We've also deleted the Facebook posts we created to promote the article. The article included inaccuracies about Bagans, and the Facebook posts were misleading; both the article and the social posts did not meet our current editorial and social media standards. We regret misinforming our readers, and any distress the article caused Zak Bagans personally." Which basically means, "Zak Bagans threatened to sue us and we did not like that."
Evidently it wasn't just a "'Ghost Adventures' is fake" kinda story — According to Antares Russell Leask in "Wraiths and White Men" (via the University of Texas, Arlington ), the article also said some things about Zak Bagans personally that were probably total hearsay, so no one was really surprised that Ranker took the story down.
Zak Bagans' feud with 'Ghost Hunters'
We've all heard about the epic brand battles like Coca Cola vs. Pepsi, Burger King vs. McDonalds, Amazon vs. Barnes and Noble (who are we kidding, Amazon vs. everyone), so no one is really surprised to hear that " Ghost Adventures " vs. " Ghost Hunters " is also a thing.
According to Mass Live , the feud began when "Ghost Hunters" said things about "Ghost Adventures" and one of their investigations of the uber-haunted Bobby Mackey's Music World, you know, on a "Ghost Hunters" show in front of everyone . Zak Bagans doesn't watch "Ghost Hunters," or maybe he does secretly, but he wasn't watching that night. A bunch of his fans were, though, and in this world of everything-ends-up-on-Twitter-in-like-five-seconds he found out about the comments almost as soon as they aired.
What were the comments? Something along the lines of "'Ghost Adventures' exaggerated their investigation of Bobby Mackey's." Evidently, Zak was playing poker when he heard the news and he had to abandon his game to incite a virtual fistfight (that is, not in person and not an actual fistfight) with the "Ghost Hunters" people. The incident ended with some major "Ghost Hunters" back-peddling ("noooo we were talking about Bobby Mackey's, not about you!") but Zak did not forget. A few years later, he used Twitter to say this about "Ghost Hunters": "Ive never had more issues with people talking s**t than ppl from Ghost Hunters Intl... Failed TV Show and these wannabes wanna talk s**t LMFAO." That's classy, Zak.
Locations Zak Bagans won't go back to
Zak Bagans and the "Ghost Adventures" crew have visited some really scary places. These are the kinds of scary places that would freak out even a nonbeliever, like dilapidated mental hospitals, abandoned prisons, murder houses, graveyards — if it seems like it might be haunted, they've probably been there.
You would think after more than 20 seasons of doing this stuff there wouldn't be much that would scare Zak anymore, but that doesn't seem to be true. He can list off a number of places that he'd rather not go back to . One of those is Bobby Mackey's Music World, which the crew actually did visit a couple of times but has since sworn off. In a Discovery+ Facebook video , Zak explained that the location put "a big dent and scar into our physical selves." And he doesn't mention it, but there are a million different rumors about why Nick Groff left "Ghost Adventures," and a fan favorite is the one where he left because a demon followed him home from Bobby Mackey's and destroyed his marriage.
A couple more sites Zak told Facebook he'd never go back to: Goatman's Bridge and Point Sur Lighthouse, but the latter isn't because he thought it was especially scary, it's because the lighthouse is only accessible by boat and he's afraid of sharks. Go figure.
Zak Bagans loves masks
Zak Bagans actually invented mask wearing. It's true! Long before the pandemic forced all of us to mask up, Zak was already doing it. In fact, Zak is so famous for his mask wearing that he sometimes gives signed respirators to his fans. The rest of his team, though, is typically unmasked (at least pre-pandemic), which probably contributes to the confusion.
The reason why Zak masked up before masking up was a thing is really not super mysterious, even though it's one of the most common questions people ask about him. In fact, "Zak Baggans mask" gets like 40,000 results if you search it on Google, so it's clearly something people are still scratching their heads about. After months and months of COVID it should be an easy answer to guess — masks protect you from particulates, and old, musty, abandoned places are full of particulates. Dust, mold, asbestos, you don't want that stuff in your lungs even if you don't have asthma, and according to Distractify , Zak has asthma. The other guys on the "Ghost Adventures" team aren't similarly afflicted and don't wear respirators because, you know, they don't really want to. Kind of a familiar refrain, isn't it?
Unsurprisingly, Zak is also a big proponent of pandemic mask-wearing, too. In the summer of 2020 he used Twitter to share his opinion: "Just wear a damn mask!!! Take it from someone who has been wearing them for the last 12 years!"
Zak Bagans' work outside of 'Ghost Adventures'
All that film school stuff prepared Zak Bagans for "Ghost Adventures," but most people go to film school because they want to do scripted movies and television. Well, Zak didn't waste any of his education because he was the executive producer of the 2016 thriller titled "Sympathy Said the Shark." According to ProductionHUB , the film tells the story of a love triangle gone horribly, horribly wrong, and it's got a really unique look and feel because each character gets a turn as a first-person point-of-view.
"Sympathy Said the Shark" wasn't widely released but it did get an audience award at the Portland Film Festival. Also, based on the trailer , if you're prone to motion sickness the first person POV thing might be a problem for you.
Zak's fame has given him opportunities to branch out into other genres — he's also the author of three books: "The Autobiography Dark World: Into the Shadows with the Lead Investigator of the Ghost Adventures Crew," "I am Haunted: Living Life Through the Dead," which is kind of a brag on all the stuff he's done as an investigator and why he's the best guy to do it, and "Ghosthunting for Dummies," because obviously. And because literally everyone who is famous thinks they are also a musician, Zak did an album with Praga Khan from Lords of Acid (" NecroFusion ," released in October 2012). The album even did well, reaching #1 on iTunes.
Zak believes in what he does
Pick your documentary-style paranormal series, and there's always going to be someone saying it's all fake. And the cool thing about paranormal science is, it's not science, so there really isn't any way to definitively prove that ghosts exist, or that they don't exist, or that "Ghost Adventures" is fake. For that last question, only the show's producers and stars really know the truth. While it is almost certainly true that the "Ghost Adventures" crew exaggerates stuff – c'mon, guys, not every out-of-focus insect is a light anomaly — the real question is, do they really think ghosts are real, and do they think they're capturing actual evidence, or have they been faking it all for 22 seasons?
Zak Bagans does live pretty much the same life off-camera as on camera. He owns a huge collection of paranormal memorabilia, cursed dolls, and other bizarre things that he makes available for public viewing at his Haunted Museum in Las Vegas. And according to Ozzy Mora , who worked with Zak on an episode of "Ghost Adventures," his mannerisms and apparent enthusiasm for what he's doing suggest that he is a true believer.
It's certainly possible that Zak is a great actor who remains in character on and off screen and that deep down inside he's aware it's all a big ruse, and if anyone ever found out his career would be over. But if that's true, well, it's some pretty convincing acting. Nicely done, Zak.
Zak Bagans supports the Nevada SPCA
If you're still on the fence about Zak Bagans and all the ghost hunting stuff, here's the thing that will tip you over from skeptic to fan. Zak Bagans is a dog person. Also, his dogs are super cute.
According to Woof Republic , Zak adopted a Yorkshire terrier named Ridley in 2010. His other dog, Gracie, is in front of the camera a bit more often — Woof Republic doesn't say what breed she is, but she looks pretty border collie-ish. "We humans absorb a lot of negativity in this world," he told the Daily Herald in 2017, "but dogs are pure joy." Zak is also a long-time supporter of the Nevada Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and frequently shows up at adoption events and sends out calls for donations to the organization on Twitter .
Of course, the big question is, how much do his dogs get involved in the paranormal? Maybe that wasn't your big question, but it's totally a big question. Lots of people think dogs are specially tuned to that stuff, but what does Zak think? "I'm teaching Ridley how to hunt ghosts," he told People Magazine . "He's good. I tried to see if he's sensitive to spiritual energy, and I think he is." See, this is what "lives and breathes the paranormal" means. You may not be a believer, but it doesn't matter because Zak does enough believing for both of you.

The lead investigator in the reality series Ghost Adventures, Zak is also the executive producer. The man is often seen traveling to and fro from national and international locations which are rumored to be hunted. In a career spanning more than two decades, Zak has committed to finding and proving the existence of the supernatural. In this article, we will take a closer look at the wiki-bio of Zak Bagans.
Upbringing & Family
Zak Bagan was born on April 5, 1977, in Washington D.C., the second child of Nancy Knapp, an interior designer, and her husband, Larry Bagan who was a salesman. He has an elder sister, Meredith, who was his first friend and confidant. When Zak was still young, his parents divorced and his mother remarried, giving him two half-siblings, Sky and Phil.

Zak grew up in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, where he attended Glenbard West High School. He was fascinated by history and dreamed of becoming a filmmaker someday. He pursued his studies in filmmaking at the Motion Picture Institute in Michigan. He then moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, to pursue his dream of becoming a documentary filmmaker.
Getting into Paranormal Investigation
Zak’s life changed when he encountered the spirit of a suicidal woman in his apartment in Michigan, where he had moved to study filmmaking at the Motion Picture Institute. This experience sparked his interest in the paranormal and led him to pursue a career as a paranormal investigator. During his early years in Las Vegas, he worked as a wedding disc jockey and other odd jobs, while also pursuing his interest in paranormal.
In 2004, Zak met Nick Groff, a fellow filmmaker and paranormal enthusiast, who shared his vision of creating a documentary-style film that would capture real evidence of ghosts and hauntings. They teamed up with Aaron Goodwin, a cameraman and equipment technician, to produce a documentary-style film called Ghost Adventures. The film featured their investigation of alleged paranormal activity in and around Virginia City, Nevada, including the infamous Goldfield Hotel. The film aired on the SciFi Channel in 2007 and received positive reviews from critics and viewers alike.
Ghost Adventures
The ‘Ghost Adventures film caught the attention of the Travel Channel, which offered them a deal to produce a series based on their film. The series, also titled Ghost Adventures, premiered in 2008 and became one of the most popular and longest-running shows on the network. The series followed the trio as they explored some of the most notorious and haunted places in the world, such as the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum, the Winchester Mystery House, and the Island of the Dolls. The series has aired for 28 seasons as of 2023, making it one of the longest-running and most-watched paranormal shows on television. The series has also spawned several spin-offs and specials, such as Ghost Adventures: Aftershocks, Paranormal Challenge, Deadly Possessions, and The Haunted Museum.

Relationship With Nick Groff
Zak Bagans and Nick Groff were once the dynamic duo of paranormal investigation. They co-created and co-starred in the hit show Ghost Adventures. Bagans and Groff developed a close friendship over the years, as they shared their passion for the paranormal and their experiences on the show. They also collaborated on other projects, such as Ghost Adventures: Aftershocks, a spin-off series that revisited some of the locations and people they had encountered on their investigations.
However, in 2014, Groff announced that he was leaving Ghost Adventures after 10 seasons, citing personal reasons. He went on to create his own series, Ghost Stalkers and Paranormal Lockdown, where he continued to investigate the paranormal with different partners. Bagans remained on Ghost Adventures with Goodwin and other new members of the crew. He also created his own spin-off series, Deadly Possessions and Ghost Adventures: Screaming Room. He also opened his own museum in Las Vegas, where he displays various haunted and cursed objects that he has collected over the years.
Bagans and Groff have not publicly spoken about their relationship since their split, but they have both expressed their respect and gratitude for each other on social media. They have also supported each other’s projects and achievements.
Rumors & Controversies
Zak Bagans is a well-known name in the paranormal investigation scene, but he is not without controversy. The host and executive producer of Ghost Adventures has faced accusations of fraud, sabotage and dishonesty from various sources. Here are some of the rumors and controversies that have surrounded him in recent years:
- Destination Fear drama : In 2023, the popular show Destination Fear announced that it had been canceled after four seasons. Some fans speculated that Bagans was behind this decision, as he was the executive producer of the show and allegedly feared that it would overshadow his own Ghost Adventures. However, Destination Fear cast member Dakota Laden denied these rumors and said that he was not friends with Bagans.
- Discovery+ deal : In 2022, Bagans signed a three-year deal with discovery+ to produce over 100 hours of supernatural and horror content for the streaming platform, including new seasons of Ghost Adventures and The Haunted Museum. Some critics questioned the quality and integrity of his work, as well as his influence over the paranormal genre.
- Annabelle investigation : In 2020, Bagans conducted an investigation of the infamous Annabelle doll, which was said to be possessed by a demonic entity. He claimed to have obtained permission from the doll’s owners, Tony Spera and Judy Warren, who were the son-in-law and daughter of the late paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. However, Spera later denounced Bagans and his show, saying that they had no authorization to touch or film the doll, and that they had fabricated evidence and disrespected the Warren legacy.
Life Beyond Ghost Hunting
Bagans is not only interested in capturing evidence of ghosts but also in understanding their stories and motives. He has written several books on his experiences and theories such as Dark World: Into the Shadows with the Lead Investigator of the Ghost Adventures Crew(2011), I am Haunted: Living Life Through the Dead (2015), and Ghost-Hunting For Dummies(2019).
In 2017, Bagans opened his own haunted museum in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he displays his collection of artifacts and memorabilia related to the paranormal, the occult, and the macabre. Some of the items on display include Bela Lugosi’s mirror, the Dybbuk box, Peggy the Doll, and Jack Kevorkian’s “Death Van”. The museum has received acclaim from visitors and critics alike, as well as awards for historic preservation and adaptive reuse.
Zak is also a huge fan of music. In October 2012, Zak decided to pair up with Lords of Acid’s Praga Khan and worked on an 11-track album. Each song featured a message from the dead which was captured from Zak’s paranormal investigations.
Renowned American television personality, paranormal investigator, author and museum owner, Zak Bagans has amassed a considerable fortune from his various ventures. As of 2023, his net worth is estimated to be $32 million.
Personal Life-Wife & Kids
Zak Bagans is neither married nor single but is in a relationship with the former Playboy model Holly Madison. The relationship came to public knowledge not long after her divorce from her ex-husband Pasquale Rotella. By June 2019 Zak and Holly were an item as reported by TMZ .
Relationship With Holly Madison
Zak Bagans and Holly Madison met under unusual circumstances. He was the host of Ghost Adventures, a popular paranormal investigation show on the Travel Channel. She was the former Playboy model and reality star of The Girls Next Door. Their paths crossed when she visited his Haunted Museum in Las Vegas in May 2019.
The attraction was instant and mutual. They had known each other for years, but their romance sparked after their encounter at the museum. They started dating soon after, keeping their relationship mostly out of the public eye. They rarely posted about each other on social media, and were seldom photographed together. They preferred to keep their love life private and low-key.
They had a lot in common, despite their different backgrounds. They both had a fascination with the supernatural, a passion for their careers, and a sense of adventure. They also had to deal with the challenges of long-distance dating, as they both traveled frequently for work. Holly split her time between L.A. and Vegas because of her kids, while Zak filmed his show in various locations around the world. But they made it work.
They dated for nearly two years, enjoying each other’s company and supporting each other’s projects. Holly starred in her own show on Discovery Channel, The Playboy Murders, where she investigated the mysterious deaths of women linked to Hugh Hefner’s Playboy empire. Zak continued to host Ghost Adventures, as well as other spin-off shows and documentaries related to the paranormal.
Breakup: However, in February 2021, they decided to end their relationship amicably. Sources close to the couple said that they had been having trouble for some time and that they realized they were better off as friends. They had no hard feelings towards each other and remained in touch after their breakup.
Reconcile: But their story was not over yet. In May 2023, TMZ reported that Zak and Holly were back together, rekindling their romance after nearly two years apart. Sources said that they had never really fallen out of love and that they had been communicating on and off ever since their split. They decided to give their relationship another chance, hoping that time had healed their wounds and strengthened their bond.
Zak and Holly are now dating again, happy to have found each other once more. They are still keeping their relationship discreet, but they are not hiding their feelings for each other.
Past Relationships
Other than the current relationship, Zak has kept pretty much tight about his affairs. Of what little is known, he was in a relationship with Christine Dolce. Christine was a Cosmetologist, she struggled with substance abuse and died of liver failure in February 2017.

Later on, Bagans began dating Ashley Mallete, whom he engaged in 2014, but clearly, Zak Bagans wedding never happened.

But Holly Madison is a mother to two adorable children she sired during her marriage to Pasquale Rotella.

After graduating from film school in Michigan, Zak moved to Nevada to pursue a career in documentary filmmaking. There, he met fellow Ghost Adventures investigator Aaron Goodwin.

Their concept was picked up by Travel Channel and commissioned as a series. Zak is also host and executive producer of Ghost Adventures: Aftershocks , where the team revisits past locations to follow up on their initial investigation, and Deadly Possessions , which features the stories behind haunted, iconic items from Bagans’ Las Vegas museum collection.

Ghost Adventures Aaron Goodwin and Wife Victoria Goodwin Are Couple Goals
By Alisha Dotel | 30 March 2023 09:24 AM

Aaron Goodwin wife Victoria Goodwin looked beautiful at their wedding on 10th August 2022. Victoria tends to stay away from media attention.
Aaron is an American co-star of the Travel Channel's reality series Ghost Adventures. Before gaining reality TV fame he also worked as a camera operator for the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
Apart from TV works, he has also launched an e-commerce website for his clothing business. As per his Linkedin , he is the owner-operator of a goodwin collection for the past eleven years. He is also the proud author of his self-written book titled Art In The Sky .
He is an actor and producer known for Space Detective, Crimps, and Malevolence. IMDb has credited six for his work in the camera and electrical department, three as an actor and two as the producer.
Aaron shifted to Las Vegas where he got an attachment to film and taught himself how to operate a camera and edit video. He gained experience by working as a cameraman on numerous TV shows.
In all the projects extending from red-carpet movie premieres to sporting events Aaron has contributed himself.
Aaron Goodwin Has Been Married Twice
Aaron Goodwin wife Victoria Goodwin has been married to him since August 2022. The couple were engaged since 2020.
Current Wife Victoria Goodwin
Victoria is the second wife of the actor Aaron. Aaron confirmed his relationship with her through his social media handle.
The actor had never let the fans know about her identity. We got to know about her through the comments done by his friend on the wedding pictures he shared on his Instagram.
As per Aaron, the two were only friends, but as time passed, they realized their relationship was more than a friendship.

In 2019, Aaron called for an engagement with Victoria and shared this good news as an Instagram post on 30th October 2019. He proposed to her by wearing her a black halo ring.
Similarly, on 15th February 2021, he uploaded their photo wishing her Valentine's Day. On 10th August 2022 he shared the bunch of their wedding photoshoot where they looked perfect in their wedding dresses.

First Wife Sheena Goodwin
Aaron Goodwin was previously married to Sheena Goodwin for over 11 years. Aaron wedded her during the first season premiere of Ghost Adventure.
Like Victoria, Sheena also prefers to stay out of the limelight and is a private person.
Sheena and Aaron lived a delighted marriage together but couldn’t sustain their wedding for a period.
Reportedly, the duo was divorced after eleven years of marriage. Bobby Mackey’s ghost spirit was the reason behind Sheena and Aaron’s divorce.
This started when Aaron and his casting members visited a renowned haunted location at Bobby Mackey's Music World. By the time he had finished filming at the location and traveled to the next destination in Winchester Mystery House, he became possessed by the ghost from Mackey.

The ghost that took over his body had manifested after it followed him to Winchester. Not only there, but the spirit followed Aaron into his house and caused all sorts of abnormal activities.
Aaron disclosed in an interview in 2011 that Sheena suffered from nightmares whenever he went to his work.
Aaron was very concerned about his ex-wife and didn’t want to create any problems for her. So, he immediately ended his marriage with Sheena to keep her out of bad spirits.
A fan of Aaron retweeted one of his posts saying he lost his love of life Sheena because of Mackey.
Sheena and Aaron are still in touch. Back on October 2012, he tweeted stating that he just hangs out with his ex-wife and there he got the chance to see her and her family.
The former married couple didn't have any children during their relationship, though they planned to conceive one. Sadly, they never got to do so as their seemingly happy married life ended due to marital issues.
Their Age and Birthday
Aaron Goodwin age is 46 and he was born on 1 April 1976 in Portland, Oregon.
On the other hand, Victoria was born in July as revealed by Aaron on his Instagram post captioning they finally got a chance to celebrate her birthday this weekend 27 July 2019.
Her exact age is still not disclosed, and she seems to be around 40, similar to her husband's age.

Speaking of Zak’s appearance, his face has changed a little due to his nose surgery. Changing the nose structure was important as Zak had trouble breathing. Hence, Zak underwent surgery to fix his septums. Zak has surgically repaired septums, but he asked the doctors to give him a new nose shape. Although Zak’s fans couldn’t tell the significant difference about his face, he confirmed it on Twitter.

The Comedy Store is rumored to be haunted. So we went ghost hunting with the pros

Los Angeles is rife with ghosts, and paranormal investigator Zak Bagans is on the hunt. The host of the Travel Channel’s “Ghost Adventures” and his crew of spirit sleuths have roamed the city, capturing all manner of unexplained phenomena on camera. Among the haunted places they’ve explored are the dreaded Cecil Hotel , the Black Dahlia house, Hollywood’s American Legion Post 43 building, downtown L.A.’s Roxie Theatre, Pasadena’s Ritual House and the Los Angeles Police Museum.
“We focus on Los Angeles because the locations here offer so much in the form of hauntings and mysterious history,” Bagans says. “It’s a smorgasbord of pure, haunted dreams.”
Today we’re at the Comedy Store , the Sunset Strip club known for two things: launching the careers of such comedians as Richard Pryor, Jay Leno and Roseanne Barr and scaring the bejesus out of countless performers and patrons during its half-century run. Demonic growls in the basement, flickering lights on stage and manifestations of a man dressed in a World War II-era military uniform are accredited to the building’s former life, when the cavernous structure was home to Ciro’s nightclub. Celebrities and mafia bigwigs like Bugsy Siegel and Mickey Cohen frequented the venue throughout the 1940s and ’50s. Legend has it that the place was used to extort, torture and kill those who crossed the mob, and the spirits of those unlucky victims still haunt the place today.

“Did you see that?” Bagans asks during our interview in the Comedy Store’s empty main room. “I just saw an amber orb fly into your shoulder.” Go ahead. Make fun of us. But I’m officially freaked out because I definitely felt something , be it a waft of cold air from the AC vents, an adrenaline rush from this morning’s coffee or an otherworldly presence tugging at my sleeve. One thing’s for sure: I’m a ghost-hunting lightweight. Bagans and his team of Aaron Goodwin, Jay Wasley and Billy Tolley usually lock themselves in a location overnight and shoot in pure darkness. I requested we do our run-through during the day, with the lights on. It should also be noted that I steer clear of Ouija boards and have never made it through all two hours and 12 minutes of “The Exorcist.”
In a year of loss, I found comfort and connection in an unlikely place: paranormal TV
Often lampooned, shows like ‘Ghost Adventures’ — full of investigators, mediums, intuitives — helped bring closure in TV critic Lorraine Ali’s own life in 2020.
Dec. 10, 2020
Bagans and I look for spikes on the electromagnetic meter he’s placed between us on the sticky cocktail table. Nothing. But that doesn’t stop us from talking about the orb incident for the next two hours as we scour the rest of the club.
Faith is everything in the paranormal business, and these guys are true believers. They’re not alone. Creepy investigations, from multipart series to bite-size social media posts, have proliferated on cable TV, YouTube, TikTok and other platforms in recent years. If you haven’t seen one of these shows before, imagine the “Scooby-Doo” crew poking around a haunted hotel, except these are real folks armed with high-tech equipment and the culprit is never the innkeeper. “Ghost Adventures,” which is also available on the streaming service Discovery+, leads the pack in the spooky realm of paranormal programming. Bagans has lost count of how many episodes the series has aired, between more than 20 seasons and a raft of specials, but he knows it’s well into the hundreds .
“People keep complaining about how weird I am, and I’m like, ‘Wouldn’t you be if you did this every other week, at the darkest places you can find?’” Bagans says.

At 45, he doesn’t appear all that eccentric. In fact, you might mistake him for any other tattooed, spiky-haired dude in his hometown of Las Vegas, if not for his sixth sense and his bouts of possession caught on tape. He says he always felt “different” and had “experiences,” which is why he made the 2004 documentary “Ghost Adventures” detailing an eerie run of events he had as a film student in Detroit. The film paved the way for the Travel Channel series.

The tall, dark and bespectacled ghost detective now has millions of followers and fans who gravitate toward his earnestness and intensity. With each investigation he addresses spirits in a booming voice, coaxing them to come forward, and half of the thrill is witnessing his reactions. Bagans is a human meter tuned to occult vibes. He’s often startled, terrified, sad or overwhelmed “by the energy” he feels. He’s become physically ill from the encounters, or shuts down completely. It’s real, he says, and accusations to the contrary sting.
“I am sick and tired of people calling me overly dramatic,” says Bagans, who in person is a gentle soul, if not awkward and slightly nerdy. “It really upsets me. I’m a magnet for energies and I can’t turn that off. I’m a hyper empathic person. ... You start crying, I’m probably going to start crying too. There’s someone bad in the room, I’ll sense that and it’ll give me a headache. I can’t turn it off.
“Within the human brain and the conscious mind, there is an electromagnetic energy field,” he continues. “When you die, that electromagnetic field doesn’t disintegrate. Ghosts have an electrical charge to them and I’m sensitive to that. I feel it, I’ll get those goosebumps. I’ll feel that static charge.”

Our hunt through the Comedy Store isn’t a highly charged encounter as far as the annals of “Ghost Adventures” go. I blame myself for insisting this be a daytime affair. The spirits are disgusted by my cowardice. Bagans and the crew say I shouldn’t be so hard on myself. Ghosts can be shy, like people, and just because there was no quantifiable response to Bagans’ repeated requests that entities show themselves, it doesn’t mean they aren’t there.
We walk up a narrow staircase to the Belly Room, the crew loaded with more equipment than an Area 51 surveillance team. Along with the aforementioned EMF detector is a highly sensitive audio recorder that picks up electronic voice phenomena (EVP), a camera with a special lens, a temperature-sensitive video device and Goodwin’s old-school Polaroid. “I snap like a billion of these just to prove that whatever we see on the other cameras isn’t doctored.” Goodwin is the comic relief. Fans of the show refer to him as “ Zak’s bait of choice.” He’s sent into the worst situations, alone, just to see how he’ll react: “I want to market a ‘Ghost Adventures’ diaper because I’m always getting the s— scared out of me.”
Not a lot happens during our mini-investigation, but, to be fair, it’s more of a walkthrough designed to show this Times journalist how the process works. My big discovery: Lugging all that equipment around is a chore. “We want to show there’s a whole other dimension of life that’s undetectable by the human eye, Bagans explains of the infrared light, ultraviolet light and digital recorders when I ask if all this stuff is really necessary. By the time we reach the spooky green room, the tiny space is so hot and claustrophobic I put aside my fear and hope for an evil presence to chill the air. The more sinister, the better.

Review: Netflix makes rare true-crime misstep with salacious series on L.A.’s Cecil Hotel
The first season of the streamer’s new anthology docuseries, “Crime Scene,” falls too in love with the Cecil’s lore to tell its central story effectively.
Feb. 10, 2021
It’s rare that the team catches a fully materialized apparition on film. They say their best catch was a cowboy materializing on camera during their exploration of California’s Cerro Gordo ghost town in 2019. They do capture unnerving EVPs of disembodied voices demanding they “GET OUT,” “DIE” or “HELP.” The current season of the show features such hair-raising “evidence” from the so-called Los Feliz murder house — two episodes’ worth of scares — and the shuttered Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall in Downey.

Bagans, the crew and I wind up back down in the main room, where we try once more to conjure a response from dead gangsters or the poor stool pigeons rumored to be buried in the basement. “We usually have to pick through 30 hours’ worth of footage, recordings and other stuff for the few minutes we capture on the show,” Bagans says. We have only two and a half hours for our investigation, but the Ghost Adventurers have been here before and they documented plenty of mysterious activity. I’m pretty sure I’ve put a damper on the hunt — until I check my own cellphone footage and spot a frenetic spec of light jetting around the guys. They watch it excitedly, but my finding is debunked as a reflection from a mirror. Disproving phenomena is also part of the process.
When I get home and go over the rest of my footage and spot a floating orb of light about Bagans’ head. Finally, something! I email the footage to a representative for the show who passes it on to him. The “dust particles wouldn’t be picked up like that without your phone light,” he told his rep, “and the trajectory of it is also a little unique and jagged, whereas a dust particle would have more of a floating effect, like a snowflake.” Bagans couldn’t definitively say it was supernatural but was “definitely intrigued” given the “other light anomalies he experienced earlier.”
I’m hooked, and ready for the Cecil Hotel. Bring it on, haunted L.A.

The 10 Best Episodes of Ghost Adventures, Ranked
Posted: October 12, 2023 | Last updated: October 12, 2023
With the surge of paranormal investigation shows in the early 2000s, it's no wonder Ghost Adventures became a household name when it comes to ghost-hunting series. The show stars Zak Bagans, Aaron Goodwin, Billy Tolley, and Jay Wasley as the main investigative team, though Nick Groff was also a main cast member for ten seasons through 2014.
Each episode has two portions: an investigation, where the location's backstory is covered, and the lockdown, where the team spends a night documenting their experience in the space. They have traveled across the US and internationally to determine whether these locations are actually haunted.
Ghost Adventures premiered in 2008 and now has over 250 episodes, including Halloween specials, unique spin-offs, and celebrity guest stars. While some question the validity of the evidence or of the supernatural altogether, the show has an excellent balance of humor, paranormal evidence, and a consistent cast viewers can connect with. Here are the top 10 episodes of Ghost Adventures , ranked.
Upper Fruitland Curse (Season 14, Episode 8)
Season 14 of Ghost Adventures brought us Episode 8, titled "Upper Fruitland Curse." This investigation takes place in Upper Fruitland, New Mexico, where the Harris family is experiencing paranormal activity from the ghost of a faceless young boy. The lockdown location is in the Navajo Nation, where the team captured an impressive amount of evidence during their investigation. One piece of evidence viewers found terrifying was from the Harris family, who captured a black mass on their home footage.
During the investigation, Zak learns how animals have been attacked on the property and how crops struggle to grow. He experiences an intense amount of energy while examining the family's trailer and banging on the side of the van. The lockdown proves to be just as extreme, as the team catches a chair moving on its own and a strange EVP.
Return to Bobby Mackey’s (Season 4, Episode 3)
"Return to Bobby Mackey's" from Season 4 of Ghost Adventures is one of the most iconic episodes of the show. The location in Kentucky is a repeat visit for the crew and is referred to as a "gateway to hell." Bobby Mackey's Music World is a former slaughterhouse turned country nightclub that is believed to have had satanic rituals performed on the land. Their first visit to Bobby Mackey's was the Season 1 series premiere, where they encountered physical scratches and spirits that followed them home.
In the Ghost Adventures return to the honky-tonk nightclub, there are numerous instances of evidence and unsettling activity. There are apparitions, spirits communicating messages through EVPs, and a possession that causes Zak to seek an exorcism after the visit. With how deeply each of the crew was affected, "Return to Bobby Mackey's" remains one of the scariest episodes so far.
Fear in Flagstaff (Season 24, Episode 4)
One of the show's newer episodes that ranks best among the series is Season 24, Episode 4, "Fear in Flagstaff." It first debuted in June 2023 and follows as the Ghost Adventures crew visit the Weatherford Hotel in Flagstaff, Arizona.
The historic hotel dates back to the late 1800s, though today, it has most of the staff and guests dealing with terrifying paranormal experiences. The hotel staff share their decade-long experiences during the investigation, which adds another layer of mystery to this location.
There is a good amount of evidence collected during this episode, but the best part is the game the crew plays to determine who will investigate the basement alone. Viewers see Aaron and Zak too scared to go into the basement, along with their fluctuating emotions during this lockdown. It's not the scariest episode of the show, but it brings back a classic, authentic feel from the early seasons.
Hell Hole Prison (Season 12, Episode 8)
Season 12, Episode 8 of Ghost Adventures is "Hell Hole Prison," an investigation that takes Zak, Aaron, Billy, and Jay to Yuma, Arizona. Here, they visit the Yuma Territorial Prison, which dates back to 1876 and is known for being a historic park and graveyard where over 100 prisoners are laid to rest. The prison gained the nickname "hell hole" due to the terrible treatment many inmates received and the extreme heat that plagues the Arizona desert.

What makes this one of the best Ghost Adventures episodes is the unique evidence captured at the prison. While these types of locations are known to be paranormal hot spots, this lockdown had the team interacting with some friendly spirits. The most impressive evidence captured is with their SLS camera, which shows several figures on the stage who appear to be putting on a musical performance for the team.
Panic on Pine Street (Season 25, Episode 11)
Season 25's "Panic on Pine Street" takes the crew to Paso Robles, California, where the team visits a historic saloon that is said to be haunted by a spirit known as "The Old Hag." Zak and the team learn during their investigation that many of the saloon's staff members are uncomfortable being in the building alone, and the tension throughout the episode is easy to pick up on. The owner's security footage is particularly creepy, as well as the audio evidence captured in their lockdown.
"Panic on Pine Street" is a very active location that provides a great deal of evidence for the Ghost Adventures team. The polterpod device picks up several clear voices that say hello and clearly state the name "Lincoln." There wasn't much evidence of "The Old Hag" entity specifically, but the team seems certain her spirit is not at rest and determines she is still a threat to those in the saloon.
Island of the Dolls (Season 10, Episode 4)
"Island of the Dolls" is from season ten of Ghost Adventures and takes place in Mexico at a tourist attraction known as the 'Island of Dolls.' This location is desolate and weaves through the canals where hundreds of decrepit baby dolls are hung from the trees.
The site is not only creepy from its appearance, but it was also the site where a little girl is rumored to have drowned sometime around the 1950s. A recluse man named Don Juan lived on the tiny island and felt he was being haunted by the little girl's spirit. He began hanging dolls around the canals as an offering to her but ended up becoming obsessed with the shrine.
This episode is not only creepy because of the dolls but also because viewers get to watch as Zak tries to overcome his fear of dolls. However, this proves to be difficult when dolls start laughing on their own, and a fire ignites with no one around. There's also evidence of a figure walking across the bridge captured, voices on the spirit box, and thermal apparitions in one of the haunted dolls, making this an episode to remember.
Curse of the Harrisville Farmhouse (Season 22, Episode 1)
In the Season 22 Halloween special, "Curse of Harrisville Farmhouse," the Ghost Adventures crew travels to Burriville, Rhode Island, to investigate the infamous house that inspired The Conjuring franchise . The colonial farmhouse is over 250 years old and sits on a secluded road in the Ocean State, with a history rich in supernatural activity and unfortunate events. Most of the evidence and attention over the years was garnered from the Perron family, who lived in the home during the 1970s and eventually sought help from Ed and Lorraine Warren.
Related: The 10 Most Convincing Paranormal TV Show Episodes
It's clear from the beginning of this episode that the Harrisville farmhouse has a dark energy that immediately starts to affect the crew. Both Aaron and Zak experience physical symptoms ranging from chest pain and dizziness to extreme emotional distress, which is terrifying for viewers to watch them go through.
They also capture a dark apparition in a window while working with demonologists Carl and Keith Johnson, two brothers who investigated the property even before the Warrens' involvement . One of the Perron children who grew up in the house, Andrea, is also a part of the episode.
Ireland’s Celtic Demons (Season 10 Halloween Special)
The Season 10 Halloween special "Ireland's Celtic Demons" is a two-hour episode that takes the team on an international investigation to Leap Castle, one of the most haunted castles in the country. Zak and the team dive into the history of Halloween and learn about the legends surrounding an ancient Celtic goddess before diving into a lockdown, where the team splits up and gains a wealth of paranormal evidence. They get to visit several different locations, but their time at Loftus Hall proves to be one of the most active.
During their time in the 1300s home in Wexford, Ireland, rumored to be haunted by the devil, the Ghost Adventures crew does capture a few different strange occurrences. These include a floating white mist, a voice saying "Help me" through the spirit box, and a figure messing with Aaron. Things only intensify during this episode when Aaron becomes violently ill after his encounter with the spirit.
Route 666 (Season 13 Halloween Special)
Another Ghost Adventures Halloween special that ranks as one of the best episodes is "Route 666." This two-part episode follows the team as they travel on their own route 666 across Texas. They stop at three different haunted locations: the De Soto Hotel, the Concordia Cemetery, and Goatman's Bridge.
Each of these spots is believed to be riddled with demonic activity and proves to be one of the most intense investigations the crew has had to date. The Concordia Cemetery is filled with apparitions and leads Billy to encounter three dark figures walking in the area. The figures are so realistic Billy ends up calling the police to check the grounds for intruders.
While the De Soto Hotel and Concordia Cemetery had numerous pieces of unsettling evidence, the most terrifying was, without a doubt, at Goatman's Bridge. Nearly every person on this investigation had a violent, overpowering experience, especially Jay Wasley's wife, Ashley. The demonic presence at the bridge seemed to take over Ashley, and ultimately, the experience caused her to quit the show altogether. The sheer amount of evidence combined with how intense this episode is makes it one of the series' best.
Poveglia Island (Season 3, Episode 3)
One of the best Ghost Adventures episodes is Season 3, Episode 3, "Poveglia Island." Poveglia Island is located off the coast of Venice, Italy, and is believed to be a prime spot for paranormal activity.
The site has a rich history filled with death and despair, as it's where many criminals and those suffering from the plague were sent to live their final days. This episode is filled with not only a mountain of evidence, but also Zak becomes possessed by an entity that makes him turn on Aaron and Nick. He has little control over his emotions and continues to get more and more aggressive as the episode goes on.
It's disturbing to see Zak in the plague doctor mask trying to entice the spirits only to be overtaken by an unseen force so quickly. In addition to the possession, the Ghost Adventures crew captures EVPs of a girl's voice that causes their equipment to malfunction and a creepy figure that knocks over one of their cameras. The raw emotions, along with the different types of evidence captured on Poveglia Island, make it the best Ghost Adventures episode to date.
