"A short time later, we met at a donut shop and started batting ideas. “I contacted Jason and discovered that he was interested in improving the site, and could use the help," Wilson wrote in Seeking Spirits. Wilson came across the RIPS website and offered to redesign it. Grant Wilson and Jason Hawes met through the RIPS website. “It wasn’t until he ran into a stranger at an aquarium-a woman who suggested that he try eating green olives-that he obtained any relief from his visions,” Wilson wrote in the book Seeking Spirits : The Lost Cases of The Atlantic Paranormal Society. He had been experimenting with reiki (a Japanese relaxation technique) and started seeing apparitions. When Hawes was 20, he had his first supernatural encounter. In 1990, Jason Hawes founded the Rhode Island Paranormal Society (RIPS, which later became The Atlantic Paranormal Society) as a support group for those who had experienced unexplained encounters. Ghost Hunters was born out of the Rhode Island Paranormal Society. Here are some facts about the original series, which turned people into believers (and skeptics). While Hawes won’t be returning to Ghost Hunters, he also has a new show- Ghost Nation, which will feature his former Ghost Hunters cohorts Tango and Gonsalves-that will premiere on Travel Channel in October. However, almost three years later, Ghost Hunters is returning for another season-this time with “ better tech.” Wilson, who departed the show in 2012, will be back for the rebooted Ghost Hunters, which will start airing on A&E on August 21. The show ended its successful run on Octoas Syfy’s longest running reality show.
He went on to say that the show wasn’t scripted: “We’re not changing anything we do to make more of an entertainment factor.” “If it may be haunted, we try to disprove the haunting,” Wilson told The New York Times in 2009. The purpose of the show was not to prove if a place was haunted, but the opposite. Paranormal investigators Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson led a team of investigators-including Amy Bruni, Adam Berry, Steve Gonsalves, and Dave Tango-to research supposed paranormal activity, from Mason, Ohio's Kings Island amusement park to the Philadelphia Zoo. At one point, the show was attracting 3 million viewers per episode, and was popular enough to spin-off into the short-lived Ghost Hunters International and Ghost Hunters Academy. Over of the course of 11 seasons, 217 episodes, and 13 specials (including live Halloween specials), the show amassed a huge following. On October 6, 2004, paranormal reality show Ghost Hunters premiered on Syfy (then know as Sci-Fi).
