Modern Day Ghost Busters Visit Mark Twain House

Plumbers by day, Ghost Hunters by night, Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson are looking for a frightfully good time at Mark Twain’s old house.

The Warwick, Rhode Island natives have made quite a name for themselves as modern-day ghost busters and invaded Hartford’s historic Mark Twain House earlier this fall, the Hartford Courant reports.

What they found would spook even the biggest fear fanatics. 
 
The group investigated paranormal activity for a Twain episode of "Ghost Hunters," to air on the Syfy network and members of the Atlantic Paranormal Society set up their equipment and spend a dark night at the century old Twain House. 

In the episode, the team reports seeing a young woman in a long white dress, presumed to be Susie Clemens, Mark Twain’s daughter, who died in the home at age 24, the Courant reports.

"It was an honor to visit a place so close to home and with so much history," investigator Jason Hawes told the Courant.
 
Investigator Kris Williams describes the historic house as “one creepy little place.”  

"The house itself is really quiet, then you hear these sounds that echo all through the place," Hawes told the newspaper. 

Pari told crews the place, “even smells like a haunted house.” 

"Ghost Hunters" loved Hartford enough to stick around another week for an episode that debuts next Wednesday that investigates an even older local landmark: the Old State House, completed in 1796.

The Twain episode airs tonight at 9 p.m.
