Ghost Hunter Academy

About Ghost Hunter Academy

Join the International Ghost Society for a short course in ghost hunting, including its history, practices and equipment... followed by a live ghost hunt in one of The Banshee Labyrinth's most haunted spaces.

This show takes a look at the field of paranormal investigation both from the perspective of a believer and of a sceptic, and allows you to experience first-hand some of the things that make ghost hunting so fun, so fascinating, and so thoroughly eerie.
