America's Most Haunted

Go behind-the-scenes and on the road with Distortions Unlimited, the Colorado-based “haunt industry” animatronic and prop-making company run by Ed & Marsha Edmunds on Travel Channel's MAKING MONSTERS, Sundays at 8pE/P and 9pE/P
Each hour-long episode follows the Edmunds and their staff – including renowned Hollywood creature and mask maker Jordu Schell – as they build some of the scariest frightronics and props in the world.
Season three highlights include a new set of KISS animatronic band members for Las Vegas’ KISS Monster Mini Golf; a giant zombie head & arms podium for Adobe Senior Creative Director Russell Brown in Denver, CO; and a mutilating buzz-saw blade attraction for Atlanta’s NetherWorld; a terrifying pregnant zombie in St. Louis.
Edmunds' fascination with sci-fi flicks and television began as a teenager while living in rural Illinois. He studied Art Education at the University of Northern Colorado. Edmunds used his artistic abilities to make and sell high-quality masks, which eventually led to the creation of his company, Distortions Unlimited.
Marsha Taub-Edmunds began working for Ed Edmunds in 1981 - she became intrigued by the creations and took it upon herself to learn the business inside and out. Marsha and Ed connected through their shared artistic passion and wed in 1992; they have been running Distortions Unlimited as a team ever since.

Syfy’s hit unscripted series GHOST MINE is back with a ripping season 2, Wednesdays at 10PM (ET/PT).
In the 12 episode second season of GHOST MINE, the hardened team of gold miners and paranormal investigators PATRICK DOYLE and KRISTEN LUMAN head back to Sumpter, Oregon’s Crescent Mine to continue their search for fortune and phantoms at the notoriously haunted and potentially rich mine.
The Crescent Mine welcomes a few additions to the team this year including the surprise return of a familiar face, a third generation miner joining his father and grandfather in Sumpter, an upgraded model of the popular RIPA (Remote Investigator of Paranormal Activity), and a four-legged excavation expert – a pooch named “Little Boy.”
Patrick Doyle has been fascinated by the paranormal since he was 7-years-old, when he came face-to-face with a shadow figure and, instead of running away, went towards it. Patrick is also the author and illustrator of award-winning books for Young Readers and teens, and invents his own ghost hunting equipment, including the RIPA (Remote Investigator of Paranormal Activity), a cutting edge, remote-controlled device that can collect data from locations deemed too dangerous for people to enter.
Kristen Luman began her research into the paranormal field while attending Portland State University, where she graduated with a focus on paranormal psychology. Kristen conducts field experiments regularly and is also a certified hynotherapist.

Eccentric antique shop, Loved to Death opens its doors to Science Channel for a second season of ODDITIES: SAN FRANCISC, Saturdays at 10pE/P. Loved to Death is more than just a store — it's the heart and soul of the oddest street in town.
The store’s colorful owner Audra, and employee Wednesday, are joined by newcomer Lincoln to take on the eclectic customers and bizarre antiques that enter the Haight Street haven. From germaphobes to ancient artifacts, the ten brand new episodes of ODDITIES: SAN FRANCISCO showcase the weird and wacky world of antiques.
Owner Audra began her career working in a natural history store and her personal collection grew from there. Audra is also an artist and makes the dioramas and jewelry in her upstairs studio. A perfectionist, Audra prides herself in hand-selecting the most perfect items for her shop, traveling from private collections to flea markets on a regular basis.
Wednesday is a part-time Goth model whose longstanding obsession with obscurities made her a perfect fit at Loved to Death. The resident 'brainiac' enjoys researching the origins of bizarre items and often goes into long historical and scientific tangents when explaining them to customers.
