This week the Ghost Hunters investigate two older homes that now serve as museums. These two buildings have reports of everything from weird shadows to phantom cats. The TAPS team will have to use all their skills to explain the wild occurrences in these old buildings.

Amos Blake House, Fitzwilliam, New Hampshire

This house was built in 1837. There were four known deaths in the house. Jason and Grant begin searching in the living room where the ghosts of the little boy and ghost cat have been seen. During a thermal sweep, they see a hot spot on the floor. Thinking that it is coming from the basement, they head downstairs to check it out. On their way there, they get a random multiple hits on the K2 meter in the place where someone saw a little boy looking at her.

In the basement, Jason and Grant smell the strong odor of cat urine and hear something rummaging around and a purring sound. After investigating, no cat was found.

Steve and Tango investigate the bedroom, where they are able to quickly debunk some claims. Kris and Amy head into the kitchen. The team hears noises from the other room and Amy decides to put a camera in the room. Upon leaving, a loud banging noise comes from the room. They review the tap and realize that a pitch fork has fallen. When the video was played on the big monitor, you can clearly see the chains on the wall lift up and the pitch fork falls.

During the evidence review, a short EVP is caught that sounds like a cat.  So basically you have the video and EVP to base your decision on.

Arboma Building, Pensacola, Florida

This museum was originally used as a saloon and residence in the 1800s. Dustin Pari and Britt Griffith fill in for Dave and Tango, who are filming for Ghost Hunters Academy. Kris and Amy begin on the second floor where a woman felt something unzip her purse. The girls carry their purses to reenact the scene, but nothing happens. Strange scraping and shuffling sounds are herd from all directions. Every time they follow the noises, the noises go to the other end of the hall.

Down stairs most of the claims are debunked or quickly explained away. There ended up being no physical evidence regarding paranormal activity in the location.

This episode was full of debunking with a few weird occurrences thrown in. I miss Steve and Tango when they are gone. If a case is boring, at least they add some humor. Dustin and Britt are fine, but they are just not as funny.
