NEW YORK (September 28, 2023) - Renowned filmmaker Eli Roth and paranormal investigator and GHOST ADVENTURES host Zak Bagans team up once more for a new season of THE HAUNTED MUSEUM. The spine-chilling scripted series brings to life the terrifying tales of the world's most haunted artifacts, inspired by the eerie artifacts on display in Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum in Las Vegas. Executive producers Eli Roth and Zak Bagans hand-selected writers and directors who could create cinematic stories about the cursed pieces from Bagans' creepy collection, with introductions from Bagans about its hellish history and how it came to be in his possession. A treat for horror fans everywhere, just in time for Halloween, THE HAUNTED MUSEUM premieres on Thursday, October 26 at 10/9c on Travel Channel.
An enthusiast for all things haunted, Zak Bagans has amassed a collection of thousands of curiosities from all over the world, exhibited across a sprawling 30-room, 14,000-square-foot mansion museum. These cursed objects take the spotlight in THE HAUNTED MUSEUM, as Zak Bagans and Eli Roth join forces to tell these scripted stories in a frightening format. Roth, the modern master of horror and creative force behind such films as Cabin Fever and Hostel, along with his accredited team of writers, present the frightful tales behind Bagans' most feared items through innovative and evocative horror shorts.
Included among the possessed pieces this season are: a cauldron found in serial killer Ed Gein's home, evil puppets said to possess a person's soul and one of the most terrifying pieces, an ancient, mummified head. The premiere episode, airing on Thursday, October 26 at 10/9c on Travel Channel, is centered around the famed Bunny Ranch Brothel where Dennis Hof, the deceased owner of the well-known legal bordello, died on the bed that is said to have a sordid and evil history. In The Cursed Brothel Bed, in desperate need of money to pay for her sons medical treatment, a single mother becomes a sex worker at a legal brothel out of state. When a malevolent force attached to her assigned room begins stalking her, she must unravel the mystery before she becomes the entitys next victim.
