Watch Unexplained: Haunts III

On the evening of Halloween 2003, the unintended trilogy of "Unexplained: Haunts" ended with the half-hour television special: "Unexplained: Haunts III." It was Jeff Rent's second time hosting and it was our biggest production. Our first "Haunts" highlighted paranormal activity in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. "Haunts II" focused on several stories in Selma, Alabama. With "Haunts III," we traveled to the middle of nowhere - Cheneyville, Louisiana - to a 640-acre plantation and spent the night. Creepy doesn't begin to describe it.

The murderous and tragic history of Loyd Hall Plantation was the subject of this special 30-minute television program. It aired on Halloween night 2003 on WJTV Newschannel 12, the CBS affiliate in Jackson, Mississippi, and WHJT in Hattiesburg.

Our special guest was Kriss Stephens, a paranormal investigator who has worked with the Discovery Channel and other television networks on similar projects. Enjoy the video below:

Unexplained Cases | Forever Home of the Abandoned and Forgotten: Forest Haven

Written by: Rick Garner Case Filed: 10/1/21 Executive Producer: Rick Garner When one hears the word “asylum” … especially when paired with “haunted” or “abandoned” … dreadful images come to mind of decaying buildings, sinister hallways, and forgotten lives. Forest Haven in Laurel, Maryland, has all of these and much more. Walking these grounds, Rick Garner felt a similar sadness...the kind he felt at Pennhurst but perhaps something more...something darker. The facility opened in 1925 as the District Training School for the Mentally Retarded. It was a farm-like institution designed to provide patients with useful skills. In 1928, the first of many on-ground burials occurred. In 1963, the property was named Forest Haven but during that decade, the property would begin its decline. Funding was cut, the population of residents grew to include people with epilepsy, but the worst happened in 1974 when a nearby orphanage called “Junior Village” closed and its 20 souls were moved into F

Unexplained Cases | Baltimore Street Murder House

Written by: Darren Dedo Case Filed: 06 /20/19 - Gettysburg, Pennsylvania Executive Producer: Rick Garner Battlefields, homes, pubs, and restaurants. Almost anywhere you go in Gettysburg you will come across a place that is supposedly haunted. It is very easy to understand why. Tens of thousands of men lost their lives here in this small Pennsylvania town in July of 1863. We visited one unassuming and haunted location that was here during the Battle of Gettysburg and was a casualty collection point just like many buildings were used for back then. It would make sense that the spirit who sets off ghost hunting gadgets in this Baltimore Street home fought and died in the Civil War. But, this resident spirit has no connection to the Battle of Gettysburg. Our guide for the evening, P aranormal Investigator Robert "Night Monkey" Simmons with Gettysburg Paranormal Association / Gettysburg Ghost Tours . He shares with everyone the details. “The morning of August 31, 198

Field Reports from Broadcountry Cinema 3 - Magee, Mississippi

Written by: Jeff Rent Case Filed: 5/23/03 - Magee, Mississippi Executive Producer: Rick Garner The Broadcountry Cinema 3 in Magee sits just off of Highway 49. By "Unexplained" standards, this 18-year-old building is practically brand new. Dozens of reports of paranormal phenomenon have caught the attention of "Unexplained" investigators and we decided to check it out for ourselves. These strange happenings started when the building was still under construction. Owner Butch McCall was showing a friend around. "He gets this funny sound in his voice and he's like, 'Man, this place is haunted.' I'm like, 'Well, it can't be haunted! It's not built yet!'"
