** TUNE-IN ALERT **

Travel Channel Set to Premiere Landmark Live Ghost Hunt From One of America's Oldest and Most Haunted Cities - Salem, Massachusetts - on Friday, October 4

Four-Hour Live Multiplatform Event Will Be Led by a Team of Travel Channel's Paranormal All-Stars

On Friday, October 4 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT, Travel Channel will premiere "Haunted Salem: Live" - a special four-hour LIVE ghost investigation in and around the historic city, led by a team of the network's biggest paranormal stars. The immersive, multiplatform event will investigate ghostly activity at three historic locations tied to the infamous Salem Witch Trials of the late 17th century: the Ipswich Gaol, the Proctor House and Rockafellas. Teams will simultaneously lead separate investigations around the city as they seek to expose the hauntings that have plagued this notable city for hundreds of years. The night will culminate with a séance conducted simultaneously by the teams from each of the three locations.

The all-star team includes Jack Osbourne and Katrina Weidman ("Portals to Hell"), Amy Bruni, Adam Berry and Chip Coffey ("Kindred Spirits"), Dalen Spratt, Juwan Mass and Marcus Harvey ("Ghost Brothers: Haunted Houseguests"), Dave Schrader and Cindy Kaza ("The Holzer Files"). The special event is hosted by Jamie Kaler.

Throughout the four-hour event, six live on-location video feeds will run on Travel Channel's Facebook Live feed. Eagle-eyed viewers can comment on any findings and activity they spot in real time, participating in the hunt and helping direct the team where to investigate next, along with digital host James B. McDaniel. Fans can join the investigation on Twitter using #HauntedSalemLive, where Travel Channel will be live-tweeting all of the action and showcasing fan tweets on live TV!

Featured Locations:

· Ipswich Gaol - the location where prisoners were held that were condemned to die for practicing witchcraft.

· The Proctor House - home of John Proctor, the first male accused and hanged for practicing witchcraft.

· Rockafellas - the site of the original meeting house where over 150 people, including farmer Giles Corey, were accused and ordered to stand trial for practicing witchcraft. Giles Corey is believed to have cursed the entire village after he was tortured to death for his crimes.
