Plot Synopsis

KINDRED SPIRITS is a one-hour reality series that follows renowned ghost hunters Amy Bruni and Adam Berry as they help real families who are tormented by paranormal activity in their homes -- with the added stress that the spirits may be their own late family members. Scared by the mysterious happenings, but hesitant to pick up and leave their homes, these families have turned to two of America's leading paranormal investigators to capture evidence, guide the spirits into the light and bring closure to family. In the premiere episode, "Cabin in the Woods," Amy and Adam meet Catherine and her daughter, who live on a 34-acre property in Little Meadows, PA. They've been experiencing multiple things that they cannot explain -- smashed light fixtures, being woken up in their sleep and terrifying scratching noises. It takes Amy and Adam multiple investigations to figure out who is bothering them, but more importantly, can they figure out why? It's up to the experts to help this family reach closure by facilitating contact with the other side.

The sophomore season of KINDRED SPIRITS premiered on Friday, September 15, 2017 at 9pm ET/PT.

Amy and Adam launch into one of their most harrowing investigations yet, but not to find the Borden family ghosts. Their unique goal is to help Sue, a tour guide, who believes her grandparents' spirits are in the house trying to protect her from impending tragedy. Amy and Adam, aided by psychic Chip Coffey, ultimately call upon the ghosts of the Bordens to help them uncover the truth. Do they get more than they bargained for? In subsequent episodes of Season 2, the duo investigate: the home of a former executioner who killed hundreds of criminals; a full-bodied apparition that terrorizes two young girls; a home where a levitating chair terrified a couple; a household that lives in fear when a malicious spirit targets the children; and more.

Season 7 of KINDRED SPIRITS debuts on Friday, January 20, 2023 at 9pm ET/PT on Travel Channel, with paranormal investigators Amy Bruni, Adam Berry and psychic medium Chip Coffey returning for 10 new episodes. In the season premiere, the investigators travel to Greene County Historical Society and Museum, a former poorhouse in Pennsylvania. For nearly 100 years, the institution was said to be a safe haven for the impoverished and disenfranchised. But, in reality, it was run more like an asylum. In the 1890s, a cruel and sadistic overseer named William B. Cage took over the institution. He was known to beat the inmates and he was even accused of chaining individuals in the basement rooms where he allowed them to starve as punishment for minor infractions. Interestingly, all of the inmates who made these reports disappeared from the records. Were they sent away, did they move or were they permanently silenced by Cage is uncertain. When the knowledge became public, Cage was removed. In 1968, the facility reopened and became a cultural center. Today, employees and guests report unexplained footsteps and many have witnessed full-bodied apparitions. Does William Cage or troubled inmates still walk the halls? Bruni, Berry and Coffey investigate multiple locations on the site, including the basement where shackles can still be seen, in hopes of resolving the pains of the past.
