TAPS Investigated in Townsend, MA Earlier This Month

On April 11th, TAPS rolled into Townsend Habor, Massachusetts to investigate a series of buildings owned by the Townsend Historical Society. This includes the Reed Homestead, currently headquarters for the historical society as well as the Spaulding Cooperage, home to antiques and an old hearse. Visitors to these locations have reported "unexplained noises, strange feelings and flickering lights".

Not one to leave things to chance, Bradley contacted "Ghost Hunters," an NBC television series. Investigators from The Atlantic Paranormal Society jumped on the case.

The big black TAPS trucks showed up in the peaceful Townsend Harbor April 11. A quick-working crew set up lights and cameras, toured the historic district and spent two nights in the buildings.

They rolled out as swiftly as they arrived, leaving everyone involved sworn to secrecy regarding their conclusions.

Jeannie Bartovics, site administrator, said all would be revealed when the show is aired in approximately three months.

Correction: The location is Townsend, MA not Townshead, MA as originally posted.

Does Your Kitty Have What it Takes to Investigate the Paranormal?

Is your cat jealous of Maddie, TAPS' newest canine investigator? Do your cat's eyes grow large and livid when Maddie's name is merely mentioned? Is your cat itching for paranormal-reality-series fame? If so, we have the solution for you...

This fansite can exclusively reveal plans for Ghost Hunters Academy: Feline Edition, which will challenge cats from across the country to display their best paranormal investigative skills! Unlike any other cat show you've ever seen, the cats on this newest spin-off of Ghost Hunters will have to prove to judges Steve Gonsalves, Jason Hawes, & Amy Bruni that they have what it takes to join the ranks of the TAPS team. Through a series of challenges (including Find The Cold Spot!, Use the EMF Meter!, and Watch for Apparations!) spanning the course of 4 episodes over summer 2011, one cat will be chosen above all others to join the team for several investigations.

Do you think your pet has what it takes to make it on the TAPS team? Click here to find requirements and submit a photo of your ghost hunting kitty in action! Good luck to all pet owners and felines who enter.
