This is a little bit of a quiet programming highlight. Maybe a calm before the spooky storm we know is coming for the Halloween season? I don’t know, but in addition to new episodes of Fright Club, the only other big thing is the series premiere of Ghosts of Devil’s Perch.
Another thing to note is there are no discovery+ only premieres of any shows or specials. There are only concurrent ones on both discovery+ and Travel Channel. Let’s unpack the specifics.
Concurrent Premieres: discovery+ and Travel Channel
Ghosts of Devil’s Perch
A mystery is buried beneath the streets of Butte, Montana, also known as “The Devil’s Perch,” and the spirits tethered to the historic mining town’s seedy past are rising to the surface. With the town intent on rebuilding its image, it seems every renovation project is digging up a paranormal nightmare with residents and businesses reporting terrifying ghostly encounters. To help restore order, the mayor and sheriff enlist the help of paranormal investigator Dave Schrader, psychic medium Cindy Kaza and tech expert K.D. Stafford to stop the wave of unnatural occurrences plaguing the town. The team unearths disturbances ranging from feuds between rival mine owners and lovers resorting to violence to vice-fueled horrors. But when they discover an army of trapped spirits crying for help, their investigation takes a whole new turn. [Hour-long episodes]

Did you pay attention to the episode titles for all these shows? Which one wins your vote for most clever?
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.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.

“Ghosting with the Stars” isn’t scary or provocative. But it made me chuckle, so it gets my vote!
That’s the best one I think too! (But if I had to pick episode descriptions that made me chuckle, “The Axe Man” would get my vote. All I could picture was a Cabbage Patch Kid slaughter! lol)
