Destination America to debut African-American ghost-hunting team

Destination America is bringing the first African-American paranormal team to TV.Dalen Spratt, Juwan Mass and Marcus Harvey lead Destination America's new series Ghost Brothers, on a mission to uncover whether some unique, legendary 'haunted' houses are the real deal.

Raised in religious households, Dalen, Juwan and Marcus were taught that 'messing' with the dead is dangerous business, but some unexplained experiences of their own piqued their intense fascination, ultimately driving them to find out first-hand just how spooky the supernatural can be.

The show is from Pilgrim Media Group, producers of the long-running mega-hit Ghost Hunters.

"Anyone boycotting the Academy Awards because of the absence of minorities represented might well find a kindred spirit in Ghost Brothers, the new series debuting on Destination America, featuring the first ever African-American ghost-hunting team," said Henry S Schleiff, group president of Investigation Discovery, Americ an Heroes Channel and Destination America. "At DA, we make a concerted effort to create programming that reflects the diversity of all Americans, everywhere, and are excited to have Dalen, Juwan and Marcus join our family."

Haunted hot spots explored in the show include the Magnolia Hotel in Seguin; Prospect Place in Trinway; Allen House in Monticello; Magnolia Plantation in Derry; Delta Queen Steamboat in Houma; and the Fitzpatrick Hotel in Washington.

"Destination America is the leader in paranormal programming, and we are excited to bring diversity to this space with the very first African-American ghost-hunting team on television," said Jane Latman, general manager of Destination America. "Dalen, Juwan and Marcus' personalities shine through in Ghost Brothers, wearing their emotions on their sleeves in an incredibly relatable way during all of the fear, thrills and chills of investigating things that go bump in the night."
