The Best Ghost Shows to Binge

(Because Nothing Says Relaxation Like Screaming at a Flickering Light)

Let’s be honest—there’s something weirdly comforting about watching people wander through dark, haunted locations yelling “Did you hear that?!” every five minutes. It’s like horror therapy, only with night vision and a lot more denim.

If you’re craving the spine-tingling thrill of paranormal investigations without actually risking possession or tripping over an antique rocking chair, this list is for you. So grab your blanket (the one you hide under), your ghost-hunting snacks (Oreos count), and let's dive into the best ghost shows to binge—because clearly you weren’t planning on sleeping tonight anyway.

Ghost Adventures

Starring: Zak Bagans, Intensity Level: 11/10

Part ghost hunt, part bro-fest, part protein shake commercial. Zak and his crew dive headfirst into haunted hot spots with the subtlety of a marching band. It’s chaotic, dramatic, and full of night-vision jump scares. You’ll start saying “bro” way too much and feel strangely motivated to buy EMF equipment.

The Ghost Brothers

Starring: Dalen, Juwan, and Marcus – Paranormal Investigators and Absolute Legends

Imagine your funniest, most skeptical friends suddenly decided to take on the paranormal… and absolutely thrived at it. These guys bring charisma, real friendship, and a whole lot of humor to the ghost-hunting world. They don’t just investigate the supernatural—they roast it, question it, and somehow still manage to catch it on tape. If laughter and goosebumps had a baby, it would be this show. Do not skip it.

Kindred Spirits

Starring: Amy Bruni and Adam Berry – Ghost Counselors Extraordinaire

Less "aggressive yelling in the dark" and more "let’s help this ghost find emotional closure." Amy and Adam combine ghost hunting with genuine empathy. It’s spooky, touching, and weirdly therapeutic. If you’re the type who hugs your houseplants and cries during coffee commercials, this is your ghost show.

Ghost Hunters

Starring: The OGs of EMF Meter Fame

Back when the idea of ghost hunting on TV was still novel, these guys showed up with plumbing gear and started ghost-busting like suburban superheroes. Watching them debunk creaky floorboards and find actual hauntings is still satisfying. Also, you’ll learn an impressive number of ways to stare meaningfully at a thermostat.

28 Days Haunted

Starring: The Bravest People You’ll Never Envy

Imagine being locked inside a haunted building for nearly a month, with cameras everywhere, no phone signal, and only your own nerves for company. This Netflix series is part ghost show, part psychological experiment, part “WHY would you do this to yourself?” Perfect if you want full-on creepy with a dash of chaos.

Destination FearStarring: A Team Who Needs a Group Therapist

What do you get when you pack your best friends into an RV and drive to the scariest places in America? This show. You’ll feel like part of the group as they camp out in haunted hospitals, abandoned prisons, and other places you would only enter for a million dollars—or for the plot of a horror film.

The Haunting Of…

Starring: Kim Russo and Celebrities Who’ve Seen Some Stuff

Celebs revisit the places where they had real-life ghost encounters. Spoiler: fame won’t protect you from disembodied voices. Watch as they relive their chills, and try not to yell “WHY WOULD YOU GO BACK IN THERE?!” at your screen.

Paranormal Witness

Starring: People Who Wish They Were Making It Up

Reenactments, eerie interviews, and chilling tales of hauntings told by those who lived through them. This is the show you watch when you're ready to believe everything is haunted—including your couch.

Binge Responsibly

Look, ghost shows aren’t just entertainment—they’re adrenaline-laced bundles of joy wrapped in static. Whether you're watching muscle-bound bros scream in haunted basements or the Ghost Brothers cracking jokes while chasing shadows, you're in for a paranormal good time.

Just remember: ghosts may be spooky, but running out of snacks is worse. So keep the lights low, the popcorn high, and maybe sage the couch for good measure.

And if your hallway light flickers after this marathon… it’s probably just the wiring. Probably.
