To celebrate Halloween this Friday, SciFi’s popular reality series “Ghost Hunters” will air a seven-hour live special. Hosted by Josh Gates and Steve Valentine and guest starring “Stargate SG1” and “Sanctuary”‘s Amanda Tapping, the live event will revisit Fort Delaware.
Fort Delaware, also known as the Black Hole, was used during the Civil War as a POW camp that housed over 33,000 Confederate soldiers. Ravaged by epidemics and torture nearly 2,400 failed to escape and died on the island. The restless spirits have never left.
The seven-hour event will be an interactive one for SciFi viewers. Not only can viewers tune into SciFi to see the events unfolding on-screen, they can also log into SciFi’s web site for thermal imaging camera footage, exclusive question and answer sessions and a chat room to alert the team if they spot any ghosts during the live event.
The live event kicks off this Friday evening at 7 p.m. EST on SciFi.
