Do you ever feel like the eyes of a portrait might be following you across the room? Or, did you notice that a pen has mysteriously shifted from the location you last placed it? Sure, it could be a coincidence...or it could be paranormal. Ghosts and spirits inhabit more than just homes and buildings - they can live in objects, too. This summer, John Zaffis and his family are on a mission to ease your suspicions. The Zaffis family are renowned paranormal investigators, tracking down haunted items like paintings, guns, jewelry and dolls. Once identified, these obscure items are collected and stored in the family's museum, helping John's clients bring normalcy back to their lives.

The team delves under a house to find the source of a Lake Charles haunting; the Public Library in Deep River, Ct. holds a plethora of spooky occurrences.

John and his team travel to California, where a woman is concerned about the ghostly phenomena in her home. Later, they investigate the paranormal claims of a hunter and his girlfriend.

John and his team look into the haunted history of some Native American Artifacts on display at a New Mexico bar. Then, they investigate the alleged paranormal activity taking place in a hotel with a dark past.

Case # 1

Donna Wagner in Stratford, CT, has had a ton of paranormal activity that includes seeing the apparition of a child, glass spontaneously shattering and her tenants getting scratched! Why is this happening all of a sudden? Donna is visibly shaken.

In her home is an antique lamp that serves as a cigarette lighter, a pool table that belonged to the deceased former owner who had a troubled past, and a statue that the tenant had left behind: it was of her father, and it had been made in Belize. Could it be that the statue is cursed??

During the daytime sweep the team leave little cars in hopes of summoning the apparition of a child. They also marked the area with chalk to note any suspicious movements in the space. Meanwhile, John and Beth find they can't keep any batteries working in the basement, which could be attributed to a paranormal energy drain.

Meanwhile, Aimee's research reveals that the home used to be a sanitarium! A neighbor who lived near the house as a youth said people often went into the house, but never left…

That night, the guys return to the apartment to see that one of the cars had moved. But they also notice that the floor is tilted, which rules out paranormal activity—darn. Yet, in the basement, John and Beth once again experience battery drain even after using a new recorder and new batteries. Then John hears a voice and spots a crawlspace. Bryan goes in and finds a bunch of bottle toppers and a broken bottle. An antiques expert says the bottle was used to store poison.

Donna is adamant that John remove the bottle, and she's clearly upset that her house was a sanitarium.

Case #2

Next, Gary at the Hose Company No. 3 and Historical Museum in Pueblo, Colorado is having some trouble. According to Gary, two vehicles started up and traveled on their own and he's also heard voices and breathing. Reportedly, a child died in the building years ago so this could offer some explanation for the paranormal occu

The team examines a Civil War-era "pain bullet" found in the backyard that may be causing paranormal activity in a house in Sharpsburg, Maryland. Then they travel to River Vale, New Jersey, site of the Baylor Massacre where a 21-year-old college student is the victim of the malevolent spirit of a British Revolutionary War soldier who keeps pinning him down to the bed while he sleeps. They also believe the owner's wood carved statue from the Bahamas ties in with the hauntings since the practice of obeah is steeped in sorcery and folk magic.
