Ghost Hunters: Back For Season 5 in 2009
July 23, 2008 by Alexandra
Fans of Ghost Hunters? Get ready, because it was just announced this week that the team will be back for Season 5 in 2009.
There will be 25 episodes of the paranormal plumbers, Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson, busting ghosts by debunking what’s real and what’s just dust on the camera. According to the network, this season has been the best one yet, and has been bringing in the female viewership in record numbers, by the way.
Maybe it’s because they’ve given terms such as “shadow people”, or “EVP” household popularity, and helped bring other knowledge of the supernatural to the mainstream.
What is it about these two guys, their team, and this show that makes them so popular? I’m betting it’s the fact that each week, they introduce us to a new alleged supernatural setting, and take on the truth in an honest, and interesting way. Both Jason, Grant and the team do the job they set out to do, while at the same time, are not afraid to be themselves, and have a bit of fun.
Ghost Hunters airs on Wednesdays at 9:00 PM ET on Sci-Fi. Pictured above are Jason Hawes, Grant Wilson, and the rest of the crew.
So, let me ask you. Why do you think Ghost Hunters is so popular that it’s getting a new fifth season, and what do you find to be compelling about the series?

Wow,season 5 already.I only have season 1&2.I need to catch up,i love this show dued to how good these guys are at catching activity and evp’s.I think it’s great they can prove that people who die stay around in the afterlife.
I have my own shadow people.They tap in my wall and i have my own evp’s of their voices.
Wow,i see brian must be back.I am glad he is growing up and moving forward with his life.All that drama before had nothing to do with ghost hunting,LOL.I thought season 5 almost wasn’t gonna happen dued to their own personal lives. Cause of the talk jayson and grant said who they should turn taps over to.I think that would be cool to see their own children investigating the paranormal for taps one day.
I love the Ghost Hunters. I even wrote a page about Jason Hawes. I know it needs work, but fans can help! lol
I think, of all of the Paranormal shows out there, Ghost Hunters is the most believable. You also get involved in the crew members relationships.
realy hope its starts soon cant wait for next season
Ghost hunters is so popular because as with every good show it has to do with the right people as the cast. I can’t wait to see what is new in their personal lives as well as their ghost busting exploits. I have seen the Ghost hunters international but would rather watch the original crew. What’s with all the girls on the international show? Trying to bring in more young boys???
I as a person who likes the ghost hunter show would like to know how i or anyone, would be able to to join you all on you’r show to do ghost hunting.
That is such an old picture. Brian is long gone (Yippy, what a whiny brat) and so is Donna. There is no ‘cast’ on the show there is a crew. I like the show because they approach it scientifically. They do not run around screaming like idiots with cameras pointed up their noses while psychics wander about spirit humping and being possessed. The only thing that would make the show better is if the narrator Mike Rowe would get his seriously yummy self in front of the camera.
Because Jason Hawes is CUTE!!!
(grin)
So many people want to join your team, me included. So why not have fans come ghost hunt w/u & see if they can stir up the spirits. Let a winer be a new cast member.That would be great reality TV.
Celtic Princess; brian has not left the team he is now in (GHOST HUNTERS INTERNATIONAL) part of the taps family.TORI;check out the ghost hunters web site “www.scifi.com/ghosthunters” on how to join the team and to find out whats new in season 5. love the show keep up the good work guys. peace out.
do you ever have fans come on the set and
be one of the observers. It would be more
convincing if you had people come on the show
that could give the audiance a better understanding of what it is like to search for
the unknown. Just a normal person with no star or actress connections. The fans would be more apt to believe what they hear and see. Great
show. You keep it clean and still have a good
ratings.
just a thought

yes thats verry nice i cant wait to watch it from holland;)
I wish I had cable. Darn I love ghost hunters. I just bought Season 4 part 1 & 2 and plan to buy all the rest of them. I live on a very small income so cable is too expensive. I guess when it comes out on DVD I will be there to buy it. I have had many places that were haunted. I had another TAPS family from Wisconsin investigate the place we are in now. I was very impressed with their profressionalizam. They found the most EVP’s at my apt here than in all the 20 years they have been doing it. The entire Camera and stand went up in the air and slammed down to the floor in my daughter’s room when one of the member’s provoked the spirit. There is a teen girl and an older man’s spirit in our apt.
I actually stumbled upon Ghost Hunters when I was looking for answers to my own experiences. I think they do a Great job at seperating the facts in a case. Thay need to keep up the good work even if some of the public gives them slack. I say to each is thier own and if you dont like it, change the channel. I am looking forward to the next season and not giving up hope for them to come to Canada!
I don’t get it. They announced a whole new season but the last two weeks have been repeats! What up?
Is GHI off the air as in canceled?
I freiking hope not!!! I love the show, everything about the show. I have been really bummed because my family and I buy the episodes from our XBOX 360, since we dont have cable, but the last two weeks there hasn’t been a new one. I hope they are merely taking a break… and that they are back next week…
holy crap, someone needs to put up last weeks episode!!!! does anyone know how to get to it? links?
i am really dumb founded atm. i live over in Australia and the only way i get the episodes is by downloading them via torrents. i have had episode 8 and have been waiting eagerly for the next to be aired or captured. it’s been ages. um does anyone know what has happened or has there been something wrong with air dates ect.
thanks guys
I really believe this show is great because of Jason and Grant. They know what they are doing. I do not watch any of the haunted shows because they are impossible to believe. Jason and Grant work so well together and always get the job done and I believe what they are saying. They are not afraid to say a place is not haunted when everyone may have been expected it to be. I hope they continue on with these excellent investigations. I love this show!
