When you mix paranormal investigations with domestic violence, the results can be devastating - and in these two cases, the connections to one of cable TV's biggest ghost hunting shows make the stories even harder to look away from.

This week, we're covering two separate cases tied to the Travel Channel's Ghost Adventures - and both of them go in directions we genuinely did not see coming.

First, we get into the story of Mark and Debbie Constantino, a Reno-based couple who built a following in the paranormal community as EVP analysts and appeared on the show multiple times. Behind the scenes, a very different story was unfolding - one that escalated for years before it came to a horrifying end in September 2015.

Then, we cover a case involving Ghost Adventures investigator Aaron Goodwin - and the wife who was apparently making some very dangerous plans while he was off chasing ghosts. This one involves a convicted triple murderer, a contraband prison phone, and a scheme that is hard to believe actually happened.

Two cases. One show. And a reminder that sometimes the scariest things aren't on camera.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, help is available 24/7. Call or text the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233), text START to 88788, or chat at thehotline.org.
