This Week on Ghost Hunters - 12 - 02 - 09

Photo courtesy of The Mark Twain House and Museum, Hartford, CT"][/caption] THIS week TAPS travels to Hartford, CT to check out the haunted house of legendary author Mark Twain. Until the death of their 24-year-old daughter Susy, the family lived in the beautiful, ornate Victorian-style home. But now there is a new set of tenants in town, and someone, or something, might not be ready to leave. Rumor has it that soft, faint whispers can be heard in the halls, along with child-like giggles in the nursery. Employees have also witnessed full-bodied apparitions roaming the floors, and mysterious, shadowy figures have been spotted in the windows after hours. The paranormal activity shows no sign of letting up when the TAPS team arrives, and throughout the investigation, the gang experiences one of their most eventful evenings yet! Mark Twain House airs Wednesday, December 2nd @ 9:00 p.m. EST on The Syfy Channel.
