Craig Piligian, the executive producer of the entire Ghost Hunters franchise, said, “We’re incredibly proud of the Ghost Hunters series, and that we have created for our network partners the most successful paranormal franchise on television. We owe a great deal to our tremendous cast, which always brings candor, humor and, most of all, authenticity to their process of hunting ghosts across the globe, and will continue to produce shows that are exciting, fun and compelling—for viewers, broadcasters and advertisers around the world.”
