Most Terrifying Places in America is an American paranormal documentary television series that premiered on October 9, 2009 on the Travel Channel as a stand alone special. This special was then broken down into a parted series. The series is exactly what its title implies, traveling the country in search of the "most terrifying places in America". Each episode or special features the legends and stories of several different haunted locations throughout America.

Synopsis

The series is narrated by Mason Pettit. Each parted episode starts off with a haunted hotspot on a map of the United States. A particular haunted location is selected in a state and thus begins the journey into the unknown. Parnormal investigators, Historians, psychics, and mediums all discover the secrets behind these hotspots. Plus historical footage and interviews from eyewitness reports on the paranormal is told from personal encounters with ghosts, spirits, and everything that is supernatural.

Syndication
