Real people who genuinely hear and fear things going bump in the night know they're gonna call "Ghost Hunters" TV show, everyday equivalents of Dan Akroyd and Bill Murray except that these ghost hunters try to document their work with vaguely scientific instruments. "Ghost Hunters" follows the sometimes daring and frequently just creepy exploits of "The Atlantic Paranormal Society" (TAPS) as they investigate spectre-sightings and reports of disturbing hauntings of all kinds. Outfitted in team jackets and shirts but otherwise looking like ordinary dudes, Jason Hawes, Grant Wilson, and their team-members sit patiently and wait endlessly for their gadgets and widgets to register the presence of ethereal beings. Unlike other haunt-hunting shows that capitalize on cast-members' freak-outs for suspense, "Ghost Hunters" shows the TAPS guys gleefully chasing the ghosts, asking them questions and taunting them. Whether or not the investigators ever throw a net over a ghost, "Ghost Hunters" TV sries does a spectacular job of documenting the social history of some of the world's most infamous places.
