On March 11, The Ghost Town Terror premieres concurrently on Travel Channel and discovery+. Before we meet the team of investigators starring in this new series, let’s first explore what the show is about.
The Ghost Town Terror at Gunslinger Gulch
Gunslinger Gulch sits on the outskirts of Anaconda, Montana. It’s a sprawling ghost town and guest ranch made up of various historic abandoned buildings salvaged from across the state that.
When the Broussard family answered the call of a new life in Big Sky Country and the opportunity to own this unique 52-acre property, they got more than they bargained for. They soon discovered the ranch offered anything but the serene Montana lifestyle they were seeking.
From day one, it was obvious their new property was alive with more than history and horses.
After more than a year of paranormal attacks, including unexplained scratches, apparitions, disembodied voices and poltergeist activity, Karen and her family –daughter Chloe, 20, and sons Cameron, 21, and Colby, 15– are distraught and in dire need of help.
Paranormal investigator Tim Wood and paranormal researcher Sapphire Sandalo come to their aid. They soon discover the entire town has a disturbingly dark history and that an oppressive energy has taken over.
Facing a particularly ominous situation, they call in backup –psychic medium Sarah Lemos, who is immediately affected by negative forces, and Wood’s longtime friend and fellow investigator, Scott Di Lalla.
The team’s extensive investigation uncovers a heinous unsolved murder, mysterious open-ground pits, bone findings, alarming EVPs, and startling physical attacks. But most frightening of all might be that an evil entity may have attached itself to a family member.
Tim Wood
Tim Wood has researched the paranormal for over 20 years. He is the creator and lead paranormal investigator of the world’s first web interactive paranormal ghost hunt series livescifi.tv, has served as the lead investigator and host for Travel Channel’s “It Feels Evil,” as well as appeared on “Haunted Salem: Live.” Wood’s experiences with a dark haunting at an early age continue to fuel his passion to document the paranormal and to help those who are seeking answers about the afterlife.
Sapphire Sandalo
Sapphire Sandalo is a paranormal historian and podcaster who inherited her grandfather’s passion for ghost stories and folklore. She created the web series and award-nominated podcast “Something Scary,” as well as the web series and award-winning podcast “Stories With Sapphire.” She can also be seen lending her paranormal expertise on Travel Channel’s “Paranormal Caught on Camera” and “Paranormal Night Shift.” Sandalo is on a mission to bring more empathy and diversity into the paranormal community.
Sarah Lemos
Psychic medium Sarah Lemos has been communicating with the dead since she was just five years old. Lemos’ abilities to communicate with the dead have made her an important asset to many paranormal investigation teams around the world. She has appeared on Travel Channel’s “Portals to Hell,” “The Osbournes Want to Believe” and “Ghosts of Morgan City.” Lemos developed a school of metaphysics where she teaches students how to manage and grow their own gifts.
Scott Di Lalla
Scott Di Lalla joined his first paranormal group in 2009. Growing up in a Roman Catholic family, the idea of life after death has always been ingrained in him. Having his own strange encounters as a young boy prompted him to pursue the paranormal. Every bit of evidence he collects sends a wave of validation through his soul suggesting that something goes on after our time here on earth. Di Lalla has appeared alongside Tim Wood on Travel Channel’s “It Feels Evil.”

Are you ready to cowboy up and investigate ghosts at Gunslinger Ranch with the team from The Ghost Town Terror? And do you have any questions for them? We may get a chance to talk to Sapphire and Tim. If we do, we’ll ask them!
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
